Cathelicidin (and others) biosynthesis Vitamin D a
Pro- and anti-inflammatory host responses LXA4 production Acetylsalicylic acid
COX-1; COX-2 NSAIDs

a Besides upregulating innate immune functions via pleiotropic effects, including autophagy induction, vitamin D also regulates inflammatory host responses by downregulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, augmenting the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines and interfering with T cell responses.
