Summary

Tuberculosis (MONDO:0018076) is a disease (an umbrella term covering 12 Mondo subtypes) with 69 cohort genes (173 GWAS associations across 47 studies) and 952 clinical trials. The dominant Reactome pathway is Translocation of ZAP-70 to Immunological synapse (3 cohort genes). Top therapeutic interventions include isoniazid, pyridoxine, and pyrazinamide.

Chemical tractability of cohort targets

30 approved/phased compounds have measured bioactivity against a cohort gene (and aren’t yet in disease-level trials). This is a research / tractability signal, NOT a therapeutic recommendation — a bioactivity row often reflects off-target or screening binding (e.g. promiscuous kinase inhibitors against a cohort kinase), implying no disease mechanism.
