As of 2026-09-13

P2Y purinoceptor 2 shows late clinical disease relevance led by cystic fibrosis. 4 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 P41231. Start with cystic fibrosis, then reuse UniProt P41231 as the stable protein anchor across project notes and exports.

P2Y purinoceptor 2 shows late clinical disease relevance led by cystic fibrosis. 4 more disease programs remain visible in the same review block. 1 linked drug remains visible in the same block.

Start review with cystic fibrosis because it currently carries late clinical support. Linked drugs include DENUFOSOL TETRASODIUM. This disease block keeps the Open Targets-ready contract explicit while current evidence comes from ChEMBL mechanism and indication mappings.
