Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) actively promote resolution of inflammation, tissue regeneration, and are organ protective , controlling infections via specific actions on leukocyte trafficking-functions that will be presented. This presentation will over review the biosynthesis and function of the SPM in resolution of Inflammation. The SPMs include resolvins, protectins, maresins and their newly identified cysteinyl-containing conjugates active in tissue regeneration.
