Mechanism of Action
Enbrel can bind to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) molecules in dimeric
soluble form. It is involved in immune and inflammatory responses as it
is a cytokine and it inhibits binding of TNF-alpha and TNF-beta on the
cell surface leading to inactivation of tumor necrosis factor (TNF). It
plays a crucial role in the inflammatory process response of joint
pathology [13].
