Pharmacology
Adalimumab-atto is a recombinant human IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to TNF-alpha and blocks its interaction with the p55 and p75 cell surface TNF receptors, inhibiting TNF-mediated inflammatory and immune responses; it also lyses surface TNF-expressing cells in vitro in the presence of complement and modulates downstream biological responses including adhesion molecule expression (ELAM-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1).
WYNZORA Cream combines calcipotriene, a synthetic vitamin D3 analog, and betamethasone dipropionate, a synthetic corticosteroid; the exact mechanisms of their actions in plaque psoriasis are unknown.
