Up-regulation of FPR2 , a chemotactic receptor for amyloid beta 1-42 ( A beta 42 ), in murine microglial cells by TNF alpha ... We investigated the effect of TNF alpha on the expression and function of FPR2 in mouse microglial cells, a crucial inflammatory cell type in the CNS

We have previously shown that TNF-alpha up-regulated the expression of formyl peptide receptor 2 ( mFPR2 ) in mouse microglial cells, resulting in increased chemotactic responses of such cells to mFPR2 agonists, including amyloid beta1-42 ( Abeta42 ), a critical pathogenic agent in Alzheimer 's disease
