Anti‐inflammatory, specialized proresolving mediators such as resolvins, protectins, maresins, and lipoxins derived from polyunsaturated acids may play a potential role in lung diseases as they protect different organs in animal disease models. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are an important resource for epoxy fatty acids (EET, EEQ, and EDP) that mediate a broad array of anti‐inflammatory and proresolving mechanisms, such as mitigation of the cytokine storm. However, epoxy fatty acids are rapidly metabolized by soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH). In animal studies, administration of sEH inhibitors (sEHIs) increases epoxy fatty acid levels, reduces lung inflammation, and improves lung function, making it a viable COVID‐19 treatment approach. Thus, using sEHIs to activate endogenous resolution pathways might be a novel method to minimize organ damage in severe cases and improve outcomes in COVID‐19 patients. This review focuses on the use of sEH inhibitors to activate endogenous resolution mechanisms for the treatment of COVID‐19.
