Formyl peptide receptors in the mucosal immune system [PDF]
Formyl peptide receptors: Receptors in the mucosal immune system Key receptors in defense against bacteria may also be attractive targets for diseases of the mucosa, the tissue that lines and protects areas such as the airways and gastrointestinal tract.

Structural basis of ligand binding modes at the human formyl peptide receptor 2
Formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) are GPCRs that play important roles in transducing chemotactic signals in phagocytes and mediating host-defense and inflammatory responses. Here the authors present the 2.8 Å crystal structure of human FPR2 in complex with

The Role of Formyl Peptide Receptors in Neurological Diseases via Regulating Inflammation
Formyl peptide receptors (FPRs) are a group of G protein-coupled cell surface receptors that play important roles in host defense and inflammation. Owing to the ubiquitous expression of FPRs throughout different cell types and since they interact with ...

Formyl peptide receptor 2 and heart disease
Formyl peptide receptor type 2 (FPR2) regulates the initiation and resolution phases of the inflammatory response. In the setting of heart injury and disease, dysregulated inflammation can potentiate maladaptive healing and pathological remodeling of the heart leading to cardiac dysfunction and failure.

Neutrophils express the two formyl peptide receptors (FPR1 and FPR2) and the medium-chain fatty acid receptor GPR84. The FPRs are known to define a hierarchy among neutrophil G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), that is, the activated FPRs can either ...

Background Recent studies suggest that the chemotactic G-protein-coupled-receptor (GPCR) formyl-peptide-receptor-like-1 (FPRL1) and the receptor-for-advanced-glycation-end-products (RAGE) play an important role in the inflammatory response involved in ...

Formylated MHC Class Ib Binding Peptides Activate Both Human and Mouse Neutrophils Primarily through Formyl Peptide Receptor 1. [PDF]
Two different immune recognition systems have evolved in parallel to recognize peptides starting with an N-formylated methionine, and recognition similarities/differences between these two systems have been investigated.

Annexin A1 induces skeletal muscle cell migration acting through formyl peptide receptors. [PDF]
Annexin A1 (ANXA1, lipocortin-1) is a glucocorticoid-regulated 37-kDa protein, so called since its main property is to bind (i.e. to annex) to cellular membranes in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner.
