As of 2026-09-13

Serotonin 2 (5-HT2) receptor shows approved-linked disease relevance led by major depressive disorder. 1 more disease program remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P41595. Start with major depressive disorder, then reuse UniProt P41595 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.
