Characterization of resolvin subtypes and their receptors.

Omega-3 Resolvin Subtypes Corresponding Receptors Localisation Function
EPA RvE1 ChemR23 (ERV, CMKLR1) Chemerin receptor 23 is expressed on NK cells, ILCs, macrophages, dendritic cells, and epithelial cells stimulation of phagocytosis
decrease in the level of
proinflammatory cytokines
BLT1
RvE2 BLT1 Leukotriene LTB4 is expressed on human neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes, macrophages, mast cells, dendritic cells, and T cells reduction in neutrophil
mobilization
DHA- RvD1 ALX/FPR2 Expression on neutrophils, macrophages, monocytes, macrophages, and T cells increase of phagocytosis
prevention of the differentiation of T-lymphocytes towards Th1 and Th12,
promotion of regulatory cell (Tr) formation
DRV1/GPR32 The G-23 protein coupled receptor is expressed on human neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, and monocytes, as well as vascular tissues
RvD2 DRV1/GPR32 development of CD8a
lymphocytes in the small intestine migration ability of immune
cells
recruitment of granulocytes
decrease in blood pressure
DRV2/GPR18 The G-18 protein coupled receptor is expressed on human and murine neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages
RvD3 DRV1/GPR32 The G-23 protein coupled receptor is expressed on human neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, and monocytes, as well as vascular tissues promotion of macrophage
phagocytosis
RvD4 G protein-coupled receptors: no data inhibition of metastases and induced T cell responses
RvD5 DRV1/GPR32 The G-23 protein coupled receptor is expressed on human neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, and monocytes, as well as vascular tissues expression of macrophages
increase of phagocytosis.
