Pharmacology
Mirikizumab-mrkz is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that selectively binds to the p19 subunit of IL-23, inhibiting its interaction with the IL-23 receptor and suppressing downstream pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine release involved in mucosal inflammation.
Alpha4-integrin antagonist; recombinant humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that binds to the alpha4-subunit of alpha4beta1 and alpha4beta7 integrins on leukocytes, blocking their adhesion to VCAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 and inhibiting transmigration into inflamed parenchymal tissue in multiple sclerosis and Crohn's disease.
