As of 2026-09-13

D(3) dopamine receptor shows approved-linked disease relevance led by schizophrenia. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 6 linked drugs keep the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt P35462. Start with schizophrenia, then reuse UniProt P35462 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

D(3) dopamine receptor shows approved-linked disease relevance led by schizophrenia. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 6 linked drugs remain visible in the same block.

Start review with schizophrenia because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include ABT-925, BLONANSERIN, CARIPRAZINE HYDROCHLORIDE, CHLORPROTHIXENE. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
