Specialized pro-resolving mediator biosynthetic pathways [65]. (A) Biosynthesis of the D series resolvins, protectins, and maresins from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the E series resolvins from eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). (B) Biosynthesis of lipoxins and aspirin-triggered (AT)-lipoxins from arachidonic acid (AA), the T series resolvins AT-RvDs and AT-PD1 from DHA, and the resolvin, protectin, and maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration (RCTRs, PCTRs, MCTRs) from their epoxy precursors. 15-LOX, 15-lipoxygenase; 5-LOX, 5-lipoxygenase; 12-LOX, 12-lipoxygenase; COX2-ASA, aspirin-acetylated cyclooxygenase-2; P450, cytochrome P450; RvD1, resolvin D1; RvD2, resolvin D2; RvD3, resolvin D3; RvD4, resolvin D4; PD1/NPD1, protectin D1/neuroprotectin D1; MaR1, maresin 1; RvE1, resolvin E1; RvE2, resolvin E2; RvE3, resolvin E3; LXA4, lipoxin A4; LXB4, lipoxin B4; AT-LXA4, aspirin-triggered lipoxin A4.
