Differential effect of adalumimab versus etanercept on apoptosis in the psoriatic skin

We hypothesized that one of the key mechanisms explaining the differences in effect between adalumimab and etanercept on psoriatic skin is that adalumimab, by being a monoclonal antibody like infliximab, is a better inducer of apoptosis resulting in…
