Abstract
Oxidative stress and inflammation are closely linked to infectious and neurodegenerative processes. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as arachidonic (ARA, n-6) and docosahexaenoic (DHA, n-3) acids play a pivotal role in this event as precursors of pro-inflammatory or pro-resolving oxidized products. During an infectious or neurodegenerative process, a set of signaling oxylipids ar…
