Role of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase in B cells and malignancies [PDF]
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a non-receptor kinase that plays a crucial role in oncogenic signaling that is critical for proliferation and survival of leukemic cells in many B cell malignancies. BTK was initially shown to be defective in the primary

Regulatory phosphorylation of Ikaros by Bruton's tyrosine kinase. [PDF]
Diminished Ikaros function has been implicated in the pathogenesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common form of childhood cancer. Therefore, a stringent regulation of Ikaros is of paramount importance for normal lymphocyte ontogeny ...

ANKRD54 preferentially selects Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) from a Human Src-Homology 3 (SH3) domain library. [PDF]
Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) is a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase with a fundamental role in B-lymphocyte development and activation. The nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of BTK is specifically modulated by the Ankyrin Repeat Domain 54 (ANKRD54) protein

Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase [PDF]
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), a nonreceptor cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase belonging to the Tec family of kinases, has been shown to be critical for B cell proliferation, differentiation, and signaling. Loss-of-function mutations in the Btk gene lead to X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), a primary immunodeficiency in humans, and the less severe ...

Targeting Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase in Inflammatory and Autoimmune Pathologies [PDF]
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) was discovered due to its importance in B cell development, and it has a critical role in signal transduction downstream of the B cell receptor (BCR).

Bruton's tyrosine kinase: oncotarget in myeloma [PDF]
Our findings therefore provide a strong rationale for investigating Btk inhibitors in MM and WM to target both tumor cells and their supporting BM microenvironment and thereby both suppress tumor cell growth and abrogate MM-induced bone disease.

A conditional form of Bruton's tyrosine kinase is sufficient to activate multiple downstream signaling pathways via PLC Gamma 2 in B cells [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is essential for B cell development and function. Mutations of Btk elicit X-linked agammaglobulinemia in humans and X-linked immunodeficiency in the mouse.

Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase Targeting in Multiple Myeloma [PDF]
Multiple myeloma (MM), a clonal plasma cell disorder, disrupts the bones’ hematopoiesis and microenvironment homeostasis and ability to mediate an immune response against malignant clones. Despite prominent survival improvement with newer treatment modalities since the 2000s, MM is still considered a non-curable disease.

Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase and Its Isoforms in Cancer [PDF]
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a soluble tyrosine kinase with central roles in the development, maturation, and signaling of B cells. BTK has been found to regulate cell proliferation, survival, and migration in various B-cell malignancies. Targeting BTK with recently developed BTK inhibitors has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration ...
