(a) treating cells exhibiting bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) conditions with a candidate material;
(b) measuring the expression or activity of formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) in the cells after treatment of the candidate material; and
(c) selecting a material which reduces the expression or activity level of FPR1 compared to a non-treatment group as a material for preventing or treating bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD),
wherein the FPR1 gene consists of a nucleic acid sequence represented by any one selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1, SEQ ID NO: 2, and SEQ ID NO: 3, and
