AbstractInflammation is an essential response to injury and its timely and adequate resolution permits tissue repair and avoidance of chronic inflammation. Ageing is associated with increased inflammation, sub-optimal resolution and these act as drivers for a number of ageing-associated pathologies. We describe the role played by specialised proresolving lipid mediators (SPMs) in the resolution of inflammation and how insufficient levels of these mediators, or compromised responsiveness may play a role in the pathogenesis of many ageing-associated pathologies, e.g. Alzheimer's Disease, atherosclerosis, obesity, diabetes and kidney disease. Detailed examination of the resolution phase of inflammation highlights the potential to harness these lipid mediators and or mimetics of their bioactions, in particular, their synthetic analogues to promote effective resolution of inflammation, without compromising the host immune system.Copyright © 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
