    Product Description

    Resolvins are a family of potent lipid mediators derived from both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; Item No. 90110) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; Item No. 90310).1 In addition to being anti-inflammatory, resolvins promote the resolution of the inflammatory response back to a non-inflamed state.2 Resolvin D5 (RvD5) is a DHA-derived resolvin generated by a double dioxygenation mechanism.3 RvD5 has been identified in media from ionophore-stimulated trout brain cells, in human synovial fluid from patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and in exudates of bacterial infections in mice.4,5,6 RvD5 stimulates the phagocytosis of E. coli by human macrophages, and RvD5 methyl ester enhances bacterial killing in mice inoculated with E. coli.6

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
