New ‘chemical probes’ to examine the role of the hFPRL1 (or ALXR) receptor in inflammation

We report the development of the novel N-substituted benzimidazole 11 as a potent and selective human formyl peptide receptor-like 1 (hFPRL1) agonist. This compound and its less active enantiomer 12 were identified as useful tools for studying receptor function in vitro.
