Potential therapeutic interventions and effects on targets of inflammatory network

Therapies Target effects
Monoclonal antibodies against these cytokines and their receptors
Reduction of levels of IL-6, TNF-α
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug
 
Agonists of cytokine receptors or PRR receptors for people who do not respond to (or comply with) NSAID therapy
 
Antibody-mediated stimulation of the decoy TLR receptors, such as TAM receptors, or of the intracellular TLR regulators for people with pro-inflammatory alleles in TLR4 and TLR2 genes
