“ ASA blocks the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase-2 and thus decreases the formation proinflammatory eicosanoids, and as a result, the cellular content of precursor PUFAs (such as AA, EPA, and DHA ), which have antibacterial actions, is increased.”
“In this context, it is noteworthy that ASA enhances the formation of LXA4, resolvins, and protectins from their respective precursors AA, EPA, and DHA (19).”
