The free fatty acid 2 receptor regulates the activation potency of C5a and the sensitivity to the antagonist avacopan

Zahra Khan, Neil Levin, Cláes Dahlgren, Martina Sundqvist, Fariha Khan, Huamei Fu Forsman, Lena I Björkman

This study shows that the free fatty acid 2 receptor modulates C5a receptor signaling, enhancing NADPH oxidase activation and reducing the effect of the antagonist avacopan.

Larixol is not an inhibitor of Gαi containing G proteins and lacks effect on signaling mediated by human neutrophil expressed formyl peptide receptors

Lena I Björkman, Huamei Fu Forsman, Linda Bergqvist, Cláes Dahlgren, Martina Sundqvist

This study shows that Larixol does not inhibit Gi or Gq containing G proteins in human neutrophils, contradicting previous claims about its inhibitory effects on FPR1 and related receptors.
