Effect of 17-HDHA on phagocytosis and overview of DHA-derived lipid mediators. (a) Effect of 17R/S-HDHA on phagocytosis in RAW 264.7 murine macrophages ( , * ). (b) Synthesis pathways of DHA-derived anti-inflammatory lipid mediators arising from 17R- and 17S-HDHA, and the resulting mediators are called the resolvins D1-4. Included also are the references to the published effects of the DHA-derived mediators on TNF-α secretion from macrophages [23, 48], phagocytosis [56], and DSS-colitis activity [23].
