Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Etanercept is a fusion protein composed of the TNF receptor p75 linked to the Fc portion of IgG1. It binds soluble TNF‑α and TNF‑β, preventing their interaction with cell‑surface receptors and inhibiting downstream NF‑κB–mediated inflammatory signalling. This reduces cytokine‑driven inflammation in autoimmune‑disease models.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in TNF‑pathway research, autoimmune‑inflammation modelling, cytokine‑neutralization assays, and biologic‑mechanism pharmacology.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include serious infections, injection‑site reactions, malignancy risk signals, demyelinating disorders and cytopenias. Handle with biologic‑TNF‑inhibitor precautions.
