Staphylococcus aureus-Derived α-Hemolysin Evokes Generation of Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators Promoting Inflammation Resolution.

ABSTRACT: Underlying mechanisms of how infectious inflammation is resolved by the host are incompletely understood. One hallmark of inflammation resolution is the activation of specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) that enhance bacterial clearance and promote tissue repair. Here, we reveal α-hemolysin (Hla) from Staphylococcus aureus as a potent elicitor of SPM biosynthesis in human M2-like macrophages and in the mouse peritoneum through selective activation of host 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1). S. aureus-induced SPM formation in M2 is abolished upon Hla depletion or 15-LOX-1 knockdown. Isolated Hla elicits SPM formation in M2 that is reverted by inhibition of the Hla receptor ADAM10. Lipid mediators derived from Hla-treated M2 accelerate planarian tissue regeneration. Hla but not zymosan provo
