ERV1 (Resolvin E1 receptor)
proteinERV1 signaling suppresses macrophage activation and inflammatory cytokine production, stabilizing the atherosclerotic plaque.
Pathway placement
Cascade stepPlaque inflammation
Confidencemedium
RationaleResolvin E1 receptor mediates anti-inflammatory signaling; promotes plaque stabilization and inflammation resolution.
Druggability
Not assessed (no mapped human gene target).
