“ 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).”
