tnf-alpha antagonist

R-7050 (TNF-α Antagonist III) is a tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) antagonist that exhibits heightened selectivity for TNFα.

Rupatadine (UR-12592, rupatadine) is a potent and orally available dual antagonist of PAF and histamine H1 receptors with Ki values of 0.55 μM and 0.1 μM, respectively, which provides relief of allergic symptoms and anti-inflammatory properties, and is used in allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria.

TNF-α antagonist is an exocyclic peptide that mimics the critical TNF-α recognition loop on TNF receptor I complex and, thus, prevents ligand interaction with the receptor. By blocking the TNF receptor ligand contact site, this peptide interferes with both activating receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) and TNF-α's recruitment and activation of osteoclasts. TNF-α antagonist has been used to block bone resorption in the study of systemic bone loss in rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bone destruction.
