Zusammenfassung: | The inflammatory response protects the body against infection and injury but can itself become deregulated with deleterious consequences to the host. It is now clear that several endogenous biochemical pathways activated during defense reactions can counterregulate inflammation.

It also highlights an unexpected twist in the pharmacology of aspirin. |
