Lipoxins, Aspirin-Triggered 15-epi-Lipoxin Stable Analogs and Their Receptors in Anti-Inflammation: A Window for Therapeutic Opportunity

  • Conference paper
Advances in Eicosanoid Research

Part of the book series: Ernst Schering Research Foundation Workshop ((SCHERING FOUND,volume 31))

Abstract

Multicellular host responses to infection, injury or inflammatory stimuli lead to the formation of lipid mediators (LMs) by the host (Cotran et al. 1994). The host response depends on a complex set of events that initiate inflammation and appear to be aimed at resolution.
