1. Entanercept is produced using__ O biogeneration stem cell research recombinant DNA technology O bioremediation 2. What is the general role of tumor necrosis factor in the body? Strengthen the joint capsule O Decrease the symptoms of autoimmune disorders O Stimulate inflammatory response Lubricate the joints in healthy individuals 3. How does Enbrel (entanercept) work? Decreases the risk of hepatitis and tuberculosis Increases the inflammatory response to combat join infection OCombines with a steroid to decrease pain in RA patients Binds up natural TNF so it cannot bind to its natural receptor

Explanation / Answer

1Q) The correct answer is option 3 (recombinant DNA technology).

Etanercept is a fusion protein that produced by the rDNA technology. Autoimmune diseases can be treated with this protein by obstruct the function of the tumor necrosis factor. This is produced by the rDNA technology.

2nd Q): the correct option is 3 (stimulate inflammatory response).
