摘要
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is expressed at high levels in synovial tissue from patients with RA. Through preclinical studies, animal model studies and human trials, this cytokine was the first to be fully validated as a therapeutic target for RA. Several approaches to blocking TNF have been developed, demonstrating considerable benefit in most of the patients treated.
