<div>A SAR study of the delta-selective positive modulators DS2 was performed to assist the quest for the binding site. The modulatory effect was measured using a fluorometric inaging plate reader (FLIPR) membrane potential (FMP) functional assay. Specific positions in the structural scaffold of DS2 was found to severly affect the pharmacological profile. <br></div><div>Analogs superior to DS2 were identified displaying higher potency and selectivity for the alfa4beta1delta over alfa4beta1gamma.<br></div><br>
