Formyl peptide derived lipopeptides disclose differences between the receptors in mouse and men and call the pepducin concept in question.

A pepducin is a lipopeptide containing a peptide sequence that is identical to one of the intracellular domains of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) assumed to be the target. Neutrophils express two closely related formyl peptide receptors belonging to the family of GPCRs; FPR1 and FPR2 in human...
