Aspirin-triggered 15-epi-lipoxin A4 signals through FPR2/ALX in vascular smooth muscle cells and protects against intimal hyperplasia after carotid ligation
Open accessAbstract
The benefit of aspirin is well established in cardiovascular prevention, and involves the irreversible inhibition of platelet cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and, as a consequence, decreased thromboxane levels [1]. In addition to inhibition of platelet aggregation, aspirin may also have anti-inflammatory properties, with potential additional benefit in atherosclerosis prevention. Acetylation of the COX-2 enzyme by aspirin directs the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) towards a biosynthetic pathway, which in addition involves lipoxygenase enzymes and leads to the formation of specific mediators, such as 15-epi-lipoxin A4, also referred to as aspirin-triggered lipoxin (ATL) [2].

Lesional macrophages are the principal target of Ac2-26 in these studies, although SPMs might also interact with lesional smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells.
“Although the above data suggest that lesional macrophages are the principal target of Ac2–26 in these studies, SPMs might also interact with lesional smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells107,110.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
