The COVID-19 pandemics has made sparkly evident the importance of acute inflammation and its timely resolution to protect humans from pathogenic viruses while sparing them from collateral damages due to an uncontrolled immune response. It is clear now that resolution of inflammation is an active process regulated by endogenous specialized proresolving lipid mediators (SPM) biosynthesized from essential polyunsaturated fatty acids. Accruing evidence indicates that SPM are produced during viral infections and play key roles in controlling the magnitude and duration of the inflammatory response and in regulating adaptive immunity. Here, we reviewed biosynthesis and bioactions of SPM in virus-mediated human diseases. Harnessing SPM and their proresolutive actions can help in providing new therapeutic approaches to current and future human viral diseases by controlling infection, stimulating host immunity, and protecting from organ damage.
