Unresolved inflammation underlies the development of fibrosis and organ failure. Here, we investigate the potential of the proresolving eicosanoid lipoxinA(4) (LXA(4)) and its synthetic analog benzo-LXA(4) to prophylactically modulate fibrotic and inflammatory responses in a model of early renal fibrosis, unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO). Male Wistar rats (Animalia, Chordata, Rattus norvegicus) were injected intravenously with vehicle (0.1% ethanol), LXA(4) (45 mu g/250-g rat), or benzo-LXA(4) (15 mu g/250-g rat) 15 min prior to surgery and sacrificed 3 d postligation. Renal gene and protein expression, collagen deposition, macrophage infiltration, and apoptosis were analyzed using manipulated kidneys from sham operations as control. Lipoxins (LXs) attenuated collagen deposition and renal apoptosis (P
