Hemin impairs resolution of inflammation via microRNA-144-3p-dependent downregulation of ALX/FPR2

摘要

BACKGROUND: The pathomechanisms of complications due to blood transfusion are not fully understood. Elevated levels of heme derived from stored RBCs are thought to be associated with transfusion reactions, especially inflammatory responses. Recently, the proinflammatory effect of heme has been widely studied. However, it is still unknown whether heme can influence the resolution of inflammation, a key step of inflammatory response.
