Current understanding of tyrosine kinase BMX in inflammation and its inhibitors
Tec family kinases, which include tyrosine kinase expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (TEC), Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), interleukin (IL)-2-inducible T-cell kinase (ITK), tyrosine-protein kinase (TXK), and bone marrow tyrosine kinase on chromosome ...

Activity of Bruton's tyrosine-kinase inhibitor ibrutinib in patients with CD117-positive acute myeloid leukaemia: a mechanistic study using patient-derived blast cells [PDF]
Background: Roughly 80% of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia have high activity of Bruton's tyrosine-kinase (BTK) in their blast cells compared with normal haemopoietic cells, rendering the cells sensitive to the oral BTK inhibitor ibrutinib in vitro.

Second-generation inhibitors of Bruton tyrosine kinase [PDF]
Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a critical effector molecule for B cell development and plays a major role in lymphoma genesis. Ibrutinib is the first-generation BTK inhibitor. Ibrutinib has off-target effects on EGFR, ITK, and Tec family kinases, which explains the untoward effects of ibrutinib. Resistance to ibrutinib was also reported.

A mechanism for localized dynamics-driven activation in Bruton's tyrosine kinase
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) plays a vital role in mature B-cell proliferation, development and function. Its inhibitors have gradually been applied for the treatment of many B-cell malignancies. However, because of treatment-associated drug resistance

Ibrutinib for B cell malignancies [PDF]
Research over the role of Bruton’s agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (BTK) in B-lymphocyte development, differentiation, signaling and survival has led to better understanding of the pathogenesis of B-cell malignancies.

ROR1 – a receptor tyrosine kinase – is overexpressed in CLL. Ibrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is clinically effective in CLL but patients may develop resistance. We evaluated the effect of an ROR1 inhibitor, KAN0441571C, in CLL cells from

Severe B Cell Deficiency in Mice Lacking the Tec Kinase Family Members Tec and Btk [PDF]
The cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase Tec has been proposed to have important functions in hematopoiesis and lymphocyte signal transduction. Here we show that Tec-deficient mice developed normally and had no major phenotypic alterations of the immune ...

Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase Inhibition in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) with a chronic and often progressive disease course. The current disease-modifying treatments (DMTs) limit disease progression primarily by dampening immune cell activity in the peripheral blood or hindering their migration from the periphery into the CNS.
