FASEB J 2024; 38:e23807. [PMID: 38989570 PMCID: PMC11344644 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202400610r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
Specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs) promote local macrophage efferocytosis but excess leukocytes early in inflammation require additional leukocyte clearance mechanism for resolution. Here, neutrophil clearance mechanisms from localized acute inflammation were investigated in mouse dorsal air pouches. 15-HEPE (15-hydroxy-5Z,8Z,11Z,13E,17Z-eicosapentaenoic acid) levels were increased in the exudates. Activated human neutrophils converted 15-HEPE to lipoxin A5 (5S,6R,15S-trihydroxy-7E,9E,11Z,13E,17Z-eicosapentaenoic acid), 15-epi-lipoxin A5 (5S,6R,15R-trihydroxy-7E,9E,11Z,13E,17Z-eicosapentaenoic acid), and resolvin E4 (RvE4; 5S,15S-dihydroxy-6E,8Z,11Z,13E,17Z-eicosapentaenoic acid). Exogenous 15-epi-lipoxin A5, 15-epi-lipoxin A4 and a structural lipoxin mimetic significantly decreased exudate neutrophils and increased local tissue macrophage efferocytosis, with comparison to naproxen. 15-epi-lipoxin A5 also cleared exudate neutrophils faster than the apparent local capacity for stimulated macrophage efferocytosis, so the fate of exudate neutrophils was tracked with CD45.1 variant neutrophils. 15-epi-lipoxin A5 augmented the exit of adoptively transferred neutrophils from the pouch exudate to the spleen, and significantly increased splenic SIRPa+ and MARCO+ macrophage efferocytosis. Together, these findings demonstrate new systemic resolution mechanisms for 15-epi-lipoxin A5 and RvE4 in localized tissue inflammation, which distally engage the spleen to activate macrophage efferocytosis for the clearance of tissue exudate neutrophils.

Abstract
Research over the last 25 years related to structural elucidations and biological investigations of the specialized pro-resolving mediators has spurred great interest in targeting these endogenous products in total synthesis. These lipid mediators govern the resolution of inflammation as potent and stereoselective agonists toward individual G-protein-coupled receptors, resulting in potent anti-inflammatory activities demonstrated in many human disease models. Specialized pro-resolving mediators are oxygenated polyunsaturated products formed in stereoselective and distinct biosynthetic pathways initiated by various lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase enzymes. In this review, the reported stereoselective total synthesis and biological activities of the specialized pro-resolving mediators biosynthesized from the polyunsaturated fatty acid n-3 docosapentaenoic acid are presented.

Abstract
Resolvin E4 (RvE4) belongs to the resolvin family of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). The resolvins are endogenously formed mediators with both potent pro-resolving and anti-inflammatory biological activities and have attracted considerable attention in both inflammation research and drug discovery. Hence, further metabolism of the resolvins is of interest. Gaining knowledge about the structure-function of further metabolites of the resolvins is important due to their interest in drug-discovery efforts. For the first time, the total synthesis and biological evaluations of the ω-20 hydroxylated metabolite of RvE4, named herein 20-OH-RvE4, are presented. RvE4 was converted to 20-OH-RvE4 by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. LC-MS/MS analysis and UV spectrophotometry reveal that the synthetic 20-OH-RvE4 matched RvE4-converted product 20-OH-RvE4 by human neutrophils. Cellular studies have revealed that RvE4 is formed from eicosapentaenoic acid in physiologic hypoxia by human neutrophils and macrophages, and we herein established that 20-OH-RvE4 is a secondary metabolite formed by the ω-oxidation of RvE4 in human neutrophils. A direct comparison of the biological actions between RvE4 and its metabolic product suggested that 20-OH-RvE4 displayed reduced bioactions in stimulating the efferocytosis of human senescent erythrocytes by human M2-like macrophages. At concentrations down to 0.1 nM, RvE4 increased macrophage erythrophagocytosis, an important pro-resolving function that was diminished due to metabolic transformation. The results provided herein contribute to a novel molecular insight on the further local metabolization of RvE4, the newest member among the SPM superfamily.

Abstract
The methyl ester of resolvin D5n-3 DPA, a lipid mediator biosynthesized from the omega-3 fatty acid n-3 docosapentaenoic acid, was stereoselectively prepared in 8% yield over 12 steps (longest linear sequence). The key steps for the introduction of the two stereogenic secondary alcohols were an organocatalyzed oxyamination and the Midland Alpine borane reduction. For the assembly of the carbon chain, the Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction and the Takai olefination were utilized. The physical properties, including retention time in liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectra, of the synthetic material were matched against material from human peripheral blood and mouse infectious exudates. Synthetic RvD5n-3 DPA, obtained just prior to biological experiments, displayed potent leukocyte-directed activities, upregulating the ability of neutrophils and macrophages to phagocytose bacteria, known as hallmark bioactions of specialized pro-resolving endogenous mediators.

Abstract
Resolvin D5 (RvD5), 7S,17S-dihydroxy-4Z,8E,10Z,13Z,15E,19Z-docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a specialized pro-resolving mediator (SPM) generated in human macrophages. It is implicated in the resolution of inflammation and synthesized using an inefficient chemical process. Here, DHA-enriched oil hydrolysate was prepared from oils by lipase with resin treatment and solvent extraction. The reaction factors on the biotransformation of oil hydrolysate into RvD5 were optimized using Escherichia coli expressing arachidonate double-oxygenating 15S-lipoxygenase. After optimization, the cells converted 5.0 mM (1.64 g/L) DHA in oil hydrolysate into 4.0 mM (1.44 g/L) RvD5 in a bioreactor for 3.0 h, which was 15-fold higher than that in a flask before optimization, and RvD5 with a purity of > 97% was prepared from reaction solution by treatments of resins. This is the first trial for the production of C22-dihydroxy fatty acid using a bioreactor. This study will contribute to the large-scale production of SPMs from oils.

Abstract
During an infection, inflammation mobilizes immune cells to eliminate the pathogen and protect the host. However, inflammation can be detrimental when exacerbated and/or chronic. The resolution phase of the inflammatory process is actively orchestrated by the specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs), generated from omega-3 and -6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that bind to different G-protein coupled receptors to exert their activity. As immunoresolvents, SPMs regulate the influx of leukocytes to the inflammatory site, reduce cytokine and chemokine levels, promote bacterial clearance, inhibit the export of viral transcripts, enhance efferocytosis, stimulate tissue healing, and lower antibiotic requirements. Metabolomic studies have evaluated SPM levels in patients and animals during infection, and temporal regulation of SPMs seems to be essential to properly coordinate a response against the microorganism. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on SPM biosynthesis and classifications, endogenous production profiles and their effects in animal models of bacterial, viral and parasitic infections.

Abstract
This review is a synopsis of the main points from the opening presentation by the authors in the Resolution of Inflammation session at the 8th European Workshop on Lipid Mediators held at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, June 29th, 2022. Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) promote tissue regeneration, control infections and resolution of inflammation. These include resolvins, protectins, maresins and the newly identified conjugates in tissue regeneration (CTRs). We reported mechanisms of CTRs in activating primordial regeneration pathways in planaria using RNA-sequencing. Also, the 4S,5S-epoxy-resolvin intermediate in the biosynthesis of resolvin D3 and resolvin D4 was prepared by total organic synthesis. Human neutrophils convert this to resolvin D3 and resolvin D4, while human M2 macrophages transformed this labile epoxide intermediate to resolvin D4 and a novel cysteinyl-resolvin that is a potent isomer of RCTR1. The novel cysteinyl-resolvin significantly accelerates tissue regeneration with planaria and inhibits human granuloma formation.

Abstract
Fatal "cytokine storms (CS)" observed in critically ill COVID-19 patients are consequences of dysregulated host immune system and over-exuberant inflammatory response. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multi-system organ failure, and eventual death are distinctive symptoms, attributed to higher morbidity and mortality rates among these patients. Consequent efforts to save critical COVID-19 patients via the usage of several novel therapeutic options are put in force. Strategically, drugs being used in such patients are dexamethasone, remdesivir, hydroxychloroquine, etc. along with the approved vaccines. Moreover, it is certain that activation of the resolution process is important for the prevention of chronic diseases. Until recently Inflammation resolution was considered a passive process, rather it's an active biochemical process that can be achieved by the use of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). These endogenous mediators are an array of atypical lipid metabolites that include Resolvins, lipoxins, maresins, protectins, considered as immunoresolvents, but their role in COVID-19 is ambiguous. Recent evidence from studies such as the randomized clinical trial, in which omega 3 fatty acid was used as supplement to resolve inflammation in COVID-19, suggests that direct supplementation of SPMs or the use of synthetic SPM mimetics (which are still being explored) could enhance the process of resolution by regulating the aberrant inflammatory process and can be useful in pain relief and tissue remodeling. Here we discussed the biosynthesis of SPMs, & their mechanistic pathways contributing to inflammation resolution along with sequence of events leading to CS in COVID-19, with a focus on therapeutic potential of SPMs.

Abstract
The first total convergent synthesis of 4(S),5(S)-oxido-17(S)-hydroxy-6(E),8(E),10(Z),13(Z),15(E),19(Z)-docosahexaenoic acid (1) is described. The reported synthesis led to confirmation of the native epoxydocosahexaenoic acid as the biosynthetic precursor of lipid mediators resolvin D3 and resolvin D4. These potent enzymatic products of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are important signaling molecules in the resolution of inflammation. A stereocontrolled and chiral pool-based synthetic strategy was employed, with key features including epoxide transposition under basic conditions to form the oxirane ring, and a cis-selective Wittig reaction to secure the target docosahexaenoate backbone.

Abstract
Formation of specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs) such as lipoxins or resolvins usually involves arachidonic acid 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO, ALOX5) and different types of arachidonic acid 12- and 15-lipoxygenating paralogues (15-LO1, ALOX15; 15-LO2, ALOX15B; 12-LO, ALOX12). Typically, SPMs are thought to be formed via consecutive steps of oxidation of polyenoic fatty acids such as arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid or docosahexaenoic acid. One hallmark of SPM formation is that reported levels of these lipid mediators are much lower than typical pro-inflammatory mediators including the monohydroxylated fatty acid derivatives (e.g., 5-HETE), leukotrienes or certain cyclooxygenase-derived prostaglandins. Thus, reliable detection and quantification of these metabolites is challenging. This paper is aimed at critically evaluating i) the proposed biosynthetic pathways of SPM formation, ii) the current knowledge on SPM receptors and their signaling cascades and iii) the analytical methods used to quantify these pro-resolving mediators in the context of their instability and their low concentrations. Based on current literature it can be concluded that i) there is at most, a low biosynthetic capacity for SPMs in human leukocytes. ii) The identity and the signaling of the proposed G-protein-coupled SPM receptors have not been supported by studies in knock-out mice and remain to be validated. iii) In humans, SPM levels were neither related to dietary supplementation with their ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid precursors nor were they formed during the resolution phase of an evoked inflammatory response. iv) The reported low SPM levels cannot be reliably quantified by means of the most commonly reported methodology. Overall, these questions regarding formation, signaling and occurrence of SPMs challenge their role as endogenous mediators of the resolution of inflammation.

Abstract
Recent advances in the field of regenerative medicine and biomaterial science have highlighted the importance of controlling immune cell phenotypes at the biomaterial interface. These studies have clearly indicated that a rapid resolution of the inflammatory process, mediated by a switch in the macrophage population towards a reparative phenotype, is essential for tissue regeneration to occur. While various biomaterial surfaces have been developed in order to impart immunomodulatory properties to the resulting constructs, an alternative strategy involving the use of reparative biological cues, known as resolvins, is emerging in regenerative medicine. This review reports on the mechanisms via which resolvins participate in the resolution of inflammation and describes their current utilisation in pre-clinical and clinical settings, along with their effectiveness when combined with biomaterial constructs in tissue engineering applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The resolution of the inflammatory process is necessary for achieving tissue healing and regeneration. Resolvins are lipid mediators and play a key role in the resolution of the inflammatory response and can be used in as biological cues to promote tissue regeneration. This review describes the various biological inflammatory mechanisms and pathways involving resolvins and how their action results in a pro-healing response. The use of these molecules in the clinical setting is then summarised for various applications along with their limitations. Lastly, the review focuses on the emergence resolvins in tissue engineering products including the use of a more stable form which holds greater prospect for regenerative purposes.

Abstract
Herein we report the first total synthesis of RvD2n-3 DPA , an endogenously formed mediator biosynthesized from the omega-3 fatty acid n-3 docosapentaenoic acid. The key steps are the Midland Alpine borane reduction, Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions, and a Z-selective alkyne reduction protocol, yielding RvD2n-3 DPA methyl ester in 13 % yield over 12 steps (longest linear sequence). The physical property data (UV chromophore, chromatography and MS/MS fragmentation) of the synthetic lipid mediator matched those obtained from biologically produced material. Moreover, synthetic RvD2n-3 DPA also carried the potent biological activities of enhancing macrophage uptake of Staphylococcus aureus and zymosan A bioparticles.

Abstract
AbstractPhenotype-guided transposon mutagenesis has emerged as a valuable tool to access cryptic metabolites encoded in bacterial genomes. Recently, the method was demonstrated by inducing silent biosynthetic gene clusters in Burkholderia thailandensis. Amongst the isolated metabolic products, thailandene A exhibited promising antibiotic activity. By assignment, the linear polyenic aldehyde contained a labile motif, where an ostensible chiral secondary alcohol was interlaced in an allylic and a homoallylic constellation. Our attention was drawn to the pseudo-symmetric relationship between the heterofunctionalities, indicating the transformation of a dodecapentaenedial scaffold. Centering on an iterative cross-coupling protocol, the assigned all-E-(12R)-hydroxydodecapentaenal moiety was assembled by combining Zincke chemistry with the MIDA-attenuated Suzuki reaction developed in the Burke laboratory. Thus, according to the devised strategy, the mixed 1,2-bisborylated vinyl linchpin was consecutively functionalized with 5-bromodienal derivatives in a doubly orthogonal fashion. However, when the synthetic material was matched against the bacterial isolate, inconsistencies were observed. A re-examination of the cryptic natural product was conducted by juxtaposing analytical data from experiment and density functional theory calculations, in which hydroperoxide was evaluated as a candidate metabolite present in the bacterial isolate.

E-series resolvin metabolome, biosynthesis and critical role of stereochemistry of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) in inflammation-resolution: Preparing SPMs for long COVID-19, human clinical trials, and targeted precision nutrition. Semin Immunol 2022; 59:101597. [PMID: 35227568 PMCID: PMC8847098 DOI: 10.1016/j.smim.2022.101597] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has raised international awareness of the importance of rigorous scientific evidence and the havoc caused by uncontrolled excessive inflammation. Here we consider the evidence on whether the specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) are ready to meet this challenge as well as targeted metabololipidomics of the resolution-inflammation metabolomes. Specific stereochemical mechanisms in the biosynthesis of SPMs from omega-3 essential fatty acids give rise to unique local-acting lipid mediators. SPMs possess stereochemically defined potent bioactive structures that are high-affinity ligands for cognate G protein-coupled surface receptors that evoke the cellular responses required for efficient resolution of acute inflammation. The SPMs biosynthesized from the major omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are coined Resolvins (resolution phase interaction products; E series and D-series), Protectins and Maresins (macrophage mediators in resolving inflammation). Their biosynthesis and stereochemical assignments are established and confirmed (>1,441 resolvin publications in PubMed.gov) as well as their functional roles on innate immune cells and adaptive immune cells (both lymphocyte T-cell subsets and B-cells). The resolution of a protective acute inflammatory response is governed mainly by phagocytes that actively clear apoptotic cells, debris, blood clots and pathogens. These resolution phase functions of the acute inflammatory response are enhanced by SPMs, which together prepare the inflammatory loci for homeostasis and stimulate tissue regeneration via activating stem cells and the biosynthesis of novel cys-SPMs (e.g. MCTRs, PCTRs and RCTRs). These cys-SPMs also activate regeneration, are organ protective and stimulate resolution of local inflammation. Herein, we review the biosynthesis and functions of the E-series resolvins, namely resolvin E1 (the first n-3 resolvin identified), resolvin E2, resolvin E3 and resolvin E4 biosynthesized from their precursor eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and the critical role of total organic synthesis in confirming SPM complete stereochemistry, establishing their potent functions in resolution of inflammation, and novel structures. The physical properties of each biologically derived SPM, i.e., ultra-violet (UV) absorbance, chromatographic behavior, and tandem mass spectrometry (MS2) fragmentation, were matched to SPMs biosynthesized and prepared by stereospecific total organic synthesis. We briefly review this approach, also used with the endogenous D-series resolvins, protectins and maresins confirming their potent functions in resolution of inflammation, that paves the way for their rigorous evaluation in human tissues and clinical trials. The assignment of complete stereochemistry for each of the E and D series Resolvins, Protectins and Maresins was a critical and required step that enabled human clinical studies as in SPM profiling in COVID-19 infections and experimental animal disease models that also opened the promise of resolution physiology, resolution pharmacology and targeted precision nutrition as new areas for monitoring health and disease mechanisms.
