Blunting neuroinflammation with resolvin D1 prevents early pathology in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease

Resolvins are endogenous lipids with pro-resolving activity. Here the authors find that rats overexpressing human α-synuclein show defects in dopamine signalling before dopamine cell loss, and that this is associated with low Resolvin D1 levels and neuroinflammation.
