“…In addition to resolvins, it is now appreciated that several new families of endogenous antiinf lammatory and͞or proresolution mediators are generated during a host response, including TGF-␤, IL-10, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) ␥ agonists, and lipoxins (14 -17). Studies in humans suggested that omega-3 PUFA such as EPA and docosahexaenoic acid are protective in reducing the rates of relapse in Crohn's disease (4,5). These results raise the intriguing possibility that omega-3 PUFA is a precursor of endogenous resolution signals.…”

“…Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid, which are enriched in fish oils, are held to be beneficial in a wide range of human inflammatory disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, lung fibrosis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (2)(3)(4)(5). These essential fatty acids are widely believed to act by means of several possible mechanisms, such as preventing conversion of arachidonate to proinflammatory eicosanoids or serving as an alternative substrate producing less potent products.…”

“…The control group, fed with oil rich in LA, presented the greatest number of lymphocytes in the intestinal mucosa, probably due to the inflammatory response to AA, resulting from the LA metabolism 27 . Although the modulatory role of the inflammatory response depends on the concentrations of -6/ -3 in the diet, soybean oil presented an inflammatory response superior to olive oil which presented a greater -6/ -3 relation.…”

“…N umerous reports demonstrate the beneficial effects of fish oil on human diseases such as arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, lung fibrosis, and inflammatory bowel diseases [1][2][3]. As an essential -3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a major component of fish oil [4].…”
