  • TNF- ⁇ has been shown to play a beneficial role in destroying tumors, mediating responses to tissue injury, and protecting hosts from infections by various microorganisms.

Brennan et al., Lancet, 2, pp. 244-247, 1989) and therefore, inhibiting TNF- ⁇ should prevent the synthesis of other downstream cytokines such as IL-1.

  • TNF- ⁇ levels can have clear beneficial effects in humans. This has been demonstrated by the approval of Racamicade,TM an anti- TNF- ⁇ monoclonal antibody for the treatment of Crohn's disease by Food and Drug Administration (e.g., FDA) in 1998. Another TNF- ⁇ inhibiting protein EnbrelTM was approved by the FDA in June 2000 to reduce the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
