As of 2026-09-13

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta shows approved-linked disease relevance led by biliary liver cirrhosis. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug keeps the current disease frame grounded. Protein identity stays anchored to UniProt Q03181. Start with biliary liver cirrhosis, then reuse UniProt Q03181 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

Disease program
biliary liver cirrhosis

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta shows approved-linked disease relevance led by biliary liver cirrhosis. 5 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with biliary liver cirrhosis because it currently carries approved-linked support. Linked drugs include SELADELPAR LYSINE. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
