There are accumulating evidences on the role of dysregulated angiogenesis in Behçet disease. By considering that encouraging results are accumulating about the role of anti–tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) agents in the treatment of Behçet disease and that there are evidences of a role of anti-TNF-α agents in angiogenesis inhibition, it is conceivable that antiangiogenic effects of anti-TNF-α agents may contribute to the efficacy of these therapeutic arms in Behçet disease.

Abstract

There are accumulating evidences on the role of dysregulated angiogenesis in Behçet disease. By considering that encouraging results are accumulating about the role of anti–tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) agents in the treatment of Behçet disease and that there are evidences of a role of anti-TNF-α agents in angiogenesis inhibition, it is conceivable that antiangiogenic effects of anti-TNF-α agents may contribute to the efficacy of these therapeutic arms in Behçet disease.
