The formylpeptide receptors (nomenclature agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on the formylpeptide receptor family [32]) respond to exogenous ligands such as the bacterial product fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) and endogenous ligands such as lipoxin A4 (LXA4), 15-epi-lipoxin A4, annexin I (ANXA1, P04083) , cathepsin G (CTSG, P08311), amyloid β42, serum amyloid A and spinorphin, derived from β-haemoglobin (HBB, P68871). FPR1 also serves as a plague receptor for selective destruction of human immune cells by Y. pestis [23]. The FPR1/2 agonists 'compound 17b' and 'compound 43' have shown cardiac protective functions [10,24].
