Innovador: descubren mecanismo clave para ayudar al cuerpo a desactivar la inflamación

TL;DR

A key mechanism for deactivating inflammation has been discovered by researchers at University College London.
Tiny fat-derived molecules called epoxilipinas act as natural brakes on the immune system.
Blocking the enzyme soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) increases epoxilipinas levels.
Increased epoxilipinas levels accelerate pain resolution and reduce intermediate monocytes.
Epoxilipinas deactivate a protein signaling pathway called p38 MAPK, which drives intermediate monocyte transformation.
