Abstract

The present invention encompasses oils that have anti-inflammatory or resolution-stimulating activity that contain or are enriched with Specialized Proresolving Mediators (SPM) or SPM precursors, which originate from an oil obtained from organisms containing long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as fish, crustaceae, algae, and mollusks. The invention also encompasses a method for the production of these oils, and the utilization of the oils for nutritional supplements, pharmaceutical formulations, and cosmetic formulations, which can be employed for treating an inflammatory condition.

Claims

We claim: 
     
         1 . A method of producing a remodeled triglyceride having a glycerol backbone and three fatty acids chemically bound thereto, the method comprising: (a) providing an oil containing SPMs and/or SPM precursors including at least one of 18-HEPE, 17-HDHA, or 14-HDHA, (b) esterifying at least a portion of the SPMs and/or SPM precursors in the oil to form esterified SPMs and/or SPM precursors including one or more of 18-HEPE ethyl ester, 17-HDHA ethyl ester, or 14-HDHA ethyl ester, (c) purifying the oil to increase a relative amount of 18-HEPE ethyl ester, 17-HDHA ethyl ester, or 14-HDHA ethyl ester present in the oil, and (d) transesterfying the esterified SPMs and/or SPM precursors to form the remodeled triglyceride, wherein at least one of the fatty acids of the remodeled triglyceride comprises 18-HEPE, 17-HDHA, or 14-HDHA.
