ADRA1D (Alpha-1D adrenergic receptor) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Neuroendocrine tumours.
Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors are G protein-coupled receptors for catecholamines that signal through the G(q) family of G proteins, including G(q) and G(11). Upon activation, they stimulate the phosphatidylinositol-calcium second messenger pathway, leading to calcium release from intracellular stores and activation of protein kinase C. ADRA1D binds the catecholamine ligands norepinephrine and epinephrine.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.54 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.29, animal model 0.26, genetic association 0.00, clinical 0.86).

No product in this corpus aims at ADRA1D yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the role drug-target; HPA finds the RNA tissue enhanced, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA ADRA1D: RNA tissue enhanced (blood vessel 7 nTPM, brain 6 nTPM, cervix 6 nTPM); no normal tissue stained high. Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Neuroendocrine tumours); Open Targets associates it with 2 specific cancer types at or above 0.5 (benign prostatic hyperplasia, adrenal gland pheochromocytoma); the corpus evidence decides and the Open Targets list is quoted for comparison. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)
