Production of specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs) during the resolution phase in the acute inflammatory response is key to orchestrating complete resolution. Here, we uncovered a trihydroxy resolvin in fresh human saliva. We identified and determined its complete stereochemistry as 7S,16R,17R-trihydroxy-4Z,8E,10Z,12E,14E,19Z-docosahexaenoic acid (17R-RvD2) using total organic synthesis and matching of physical properties. The 17R-RvD2 was produced by activated human M2-like macrophages, M1-like macrophages, and human peripheral blood monocytes. 17R-RvD2 displayed potent proresolving functions (picomolar to nanomolar). Topical application of 17R-RvD2 on mouse ear skin reduced neutrophilic infiltration (~50%). 17R-RvD2 increased M2 markers CD206 and CD163 on human monocyte-derived macrophages and enhanced efferocytosis of senescent red blood cells by M2-like macrophages (EC ~ 2.6 × 10 M). In addition, 17R-RvD2 activated the RvD2 receptor and was equipotent to its epimer RvD2. 17R-RvD2 also significantly increased phagocytosis of by human neutrophils. Together, these results establish the complete stereochemistry and potent proresolving functions of the previously unknown 17R-RvD2.

Global aging heightens the risk of oral disorders, among which periodontitis is the major cause of tooth loss in the aging population. The regeneration of damaged periodontal hard tissue is highly challenging due to the existence of the refractory local inflammation. Owing to the potent anti-inflammatory capabilities, regulatory T cells hold great promise in immunotherapies for tissue regeneration.

Lung inflammation, infection, and injury can lead to critical illness and death. The current means to pharmacologically treat excessive uncontrolled lung inflammation needs improvement because many treatments are or will become immunosuppressive. The inflammatory response evolved to protect the host from microbes, injury, and environmental insults.

Background And Purpose: The pattern recognition receptors, formyl peptide receptors, FPR1 and FPR2, are G protein-coupled receptors that recognize many different pathogen- and host-derived ligands. While FPR1 conveys pro-inflammatory signals, FPR2 is linked with pro-resolving outcomes. To analyse how the two very similar FPRs exert opposite effects in modulating inflammatory responses despite their high homology, a shared expression profile on immune cells and an overlapping ligand repertoire, we questioned whether the signalling profile differs between these two receptors.

Typical monoamine-based antidepressants have significant limitations, including a time lag for therapeutic response and low efficacy (more than one-third of depressed patients fail to respond to multiple antidepressant medications and are considered treatment-resistant). Conversely, ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, exhibits rapid and sustained antidepressant actions in patients with treatment-resistant depression. However, clinical use of ketamine is limited due to its serious side effects.
