Facts about N-formyl peptide receptor 2.
This response is mediated via a G-protein that activates a phosphatidylinositol- calcium second messenger system (PubMed:1374236). The activation of LXA4R could result in an anti-inflammatory outcome counteracting the actions of proinflammatory signals such as LTB4 (leukotriene B4) (PubMed:9547339).

Expressed abundantly in the lung and neutrophils. Also found in the spleen and testis.
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Associates with Amyloid-beta protein 42, product of APP, at the cell surface and the complex is then rapidly internalized.
