Bruton Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors
Abstract Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase that plays a central role in the signal transduction of the B-cell antigen receptor and other cell surface receptors, both in normal and malignant B lymphocytes. B-cell antigen receptor signaling is activated in secondary lymphatic organs and drives the proliferation of ...

Mutations of Bruton's tyrosine kinase gene in Brazilian patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
Mutations in Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene are responsible for X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), which is characterized by recurrent bacterial infections, profound hypogammaglobulinemia, and decreased numbers of mature B cells in peripheral blood.

The Different Faces of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia -Two Clinical Cases [PDF]
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia is one of the most common types of leukemia affecting adults over 65 years of age [1]. The disease is a part of the so-called indolent lymphomas and has a variable clinical course, defined by many factors.

Ibrutinib Unmasks Critical Role of Bruton Tyrosine Kinase in Primary CNS Lymphoma. [PDF]
Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) links the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and Toll-like receptors with NF-κB. The role of BTK in primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma (PCNSL) is unknown.

Targeting Spleen Tyrosine Kinase-Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase Axis for Immunologically Mediated Glomerulonephritis [PDF]
The importance of B-cell activation and immune complex-mediated Fc-receptor activation in the pathogenesis of immunologically mediated glomerulonephritis has long been recognized. The two nonreceptor tyrosine kinases, spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk), are primarily expressed by hematopoietic cells, and participate in B ...

HCK is a survival determinant transactivated by mutated MYD88, and a direct target of ibrutinib [PDF]
Activating mutations in MYD88 are present in approximately 95% of patients with Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM), as well as other B-cell malignancies including ABC DLBCL. In WM, mutated MYD88 triggers activation of BTK. Ibrutinib, a pleiotropic kinase
