Concomitant Treatment with Etanercept and Tacrolimus Synergistically Attenuates Arthritis Progression via Inhibition of Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 Production and Osteoclastogenesis in Human TNF-α Transgenic Mice

Concomitant Treatment with Etanercept and Tacrolimus Synergistically Attenuates Arthritis Progression via Inhibition of Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 Production and Osteoclastogenesis in Human TNF-α Transgenic Mice

In the present study, we investigated the effects and mechanisms of action of a combined treatment with etanercept, a soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (p75) Fc fusion protein, and tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor on the progression of arthritis in human tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) trans...
