Protectins

Contents

Protectins are a family of specialized Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) that play a crucial role in controlling inflammation and promoting its resolution
Demarquoy & Le Borgne 2014 Clinical Lipidology 9: 683-693
Joffre et al. 2019 Front Pharmacol 10: 1022

These bioactive lipid molecules are derived from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3 PUFAs)
Serhan 2006 Food & Nutrition Research 50: 68-78
Joffre et al. 2019 Front Pharmacol 10: 1022
