Biological features of pro-resolving receptors and associated SPMs

Receptor Site of expression SPM Bioaction
ALX/FPR2 Neutrophils, eosinophils, airway epithelium, monocytes, macrophages, T cells, synovial fibroblasts, intestinal epithelial cells, human natural killer cells, and innate lymphoid cells RvD1 Stimulate phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by macrophages
RvD3
LXA4
ATL
DRV1/GPR32 Neutrophils, lymphocytes, macrophages, monocytes, and vascular tissues RvD1 Enhance macrophage-assisted phagocytosis of apoptotic cells
AT-RvD1 Increase M2 macrophage polarization
RvD3
RvD5
LXA4
ATL
DRV2/GPR18 Neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages RvD2 Promote non-phlogistic efferocytosis
Inhibit chemotaxis of neutrophils
Decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines
ERV1/ChemR32 Brain, kidney, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and myeloid tissues. Natural killer cells, innate lymphoid cells, dendritic cells, epithelial cells, naïve and M1 macrophages RvE1 Promote phagocytosis of apoptotic PMNs by macrophages
RvE2 Increase C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) expression and reduce nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kB) signaling
GPR37 Macrophages NPD1 Promote phagocytosis of neutrophils by macrophages and resolve inflammatory pain
LRG6 Phagocytes MaR1 Enhance phagocytosis, efferocytosis, and phosphorylation of several proteins including extracellular receptor kinase (ERK) and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB)
