Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), a family of three nuclear receptors/transcription factors, are widely recognized as molecular targets for drugs against lifestyle related disease. In spite of intensive search for natural ligands, no truly endogenous ligand has been identified as yet.

Lysophosphatidylcholines (lysoPCs) with polyunsaturated acyl chains are known to exert anti-inflammatory actions. 15-Lipoxygeanation is crucial for anti-inflammatory action of polyunsaturated acylated lysoPCs. Here, the anti-inflammatory actions of 1-(15-hydroxyeicosapentaenoyl)-lysoPC (15-HEPE-lysoPC) and its derivatives were examined in a mechanistic analysis. Anti-inflammatory actions
