Review-ready Target Rationale

Why Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor matters

As of 2026-09-13

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor is reviewed as Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3 (UniProt P20309); Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor shows approved-linked disease relevance led by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block.; 2 linked drugs keep this evidence frame grounded.; the current evidence base includes 11 approved drugs, 593 compounds, and 129 assays, with lead potency reaching pChEMBL 10.9.

Protein context
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3 Sequence length is 590 aa.

Review this target as Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, mapped to UniProt P20309. ChEMBL maps the protein component as Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3. Sequence length is 590 aa.

Disease context
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor shows approved-linked disease relevance led by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 2 linked drugs keep the rationale reviewable. 5 additional disease programs remain visible in the same card. Linked drugs include DAROTROPIUM BROMIDE, GLYCOPYRRONIUM TOSYLATE.

Start review with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include DAROTROPIUM BROMIDE, GLYCOPYRRONIUM TOSYLATE. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
