Maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration 1 (MCTR1) is a specialized pro-resolving mediator (SPM) synthesized from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; ) in macrophages at the site of inflammation. DHA is oxidized to maresin 1 (MaR1;), which is then converted to MCTR1 by glutathione S-transferase Mu 4 or leukotriene C synthase. MCTR1 accelerates tissue regeneration in planaria (1 and 100 nM). Pretreatment with MCTR1 (50 ng/mouse, i.p.) prior to E. coli administration reduces neutrophil infiltration, shortens the inflammatory resolution period, and increases phagocytosis of E. coli by macrophages. When administered at a dose of 100 ng 12h post E. coli infection in a mouse model of peritonitis, MCTR1 reduces the amount of eicosanoids in the exudate.
MCTR1 is a potent cytokine of pro-resolving mediating maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration (MCTR), which reduces the inflammatory response and promotes tissue regeneration. Maresin conjugates in tissue regeneration 1 antagonize LTD4-stimulated vascular responses.
