Omega-3 fatty acid-derived resolvins and protectins in inflammation resolution and leukocyte functions: targeting novel lipid mediator pathways in mitigation of acute kidney injury
Inflammation, in conjunction with leukocytes, plays a key role in most acute kidney injury (AKI). Non-resolving renal inflammation leads to fibrosis and chronic renal failure. Resolvin D series (RvDs) and E series (RvEs), protectins, and maresins are endogenous omega-3 fatty acid-derived lipid media...
