Abstract: Specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs) are an enzymatically produced subset of oxylipins. SPMs have primarily inflammation-resolving actions including promotion of neutrophil clearance, regulation of cytokine production, and analgesic properties (1). The SPMs, protectins, resolvins, and maresins, originate from the omega-3 PUFA species EPA and DHA. In contrast, lipoxins, which were the first class of SPMs to be described roughly 40 years ago, originate from the omega-6 PUFA arachidonic acid (AA) (2).
