Dimeric soluble receptors such as etanercept possess a higher affinity for TNF than monomeric receptors and are considerably more potent competitive inhibitors of TNF binding to its cellular receptors.
Dimeersed lahustuvad retseptorid nagu etanertsept seovad TNF- t paremini kui monomeersed retseptorid ja on arvatavasti tugevamad konkureerivad TNF sidujad kui viimaste rakulised retseptorid.
