Incidences of inflammatory airway diseases are on the rise across the world and it is imperative that research be undertaken to discover new treatment options. This volume discusses clinically successful and potential lipid targets that can make a difference in treating some of the most intractable disease states. Topics discussed include the role of enzymes in the process of lipid mediator synthesis; the biology of arachidonic acid, platelet-activating factor, and lysophosphatidic acid; and proresolution lipid mediators in inflammatory airway disease conditions. The book also examines the role of sphingosine and ceramide in inflammatory airway disease, and protein kinases activated by lipid mediators.
