DescriptionAdalimumab(1330 amino acids, molecular weight of approximately 148 kilodaltons) is a human monoclonal antibody against TNF-alpha. It is produced by recombinant DNA technology using a mammalian cell expression system.
Indication/DiseaseFor treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and Crohn's disease.
PharmacodynamicsUsed in the treatment of immune system mediated diseases, adalimumab binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its general cytokine effects, thereby reducing TNF-induced inflammation and halting tissue destruction.
Mechanism of ActionAdalimumab binds to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors. Adalimumab also lyses surface TNF expressing cells in vitro in the presence of complement.
