Gene expression in cortex and hippocampus during acute pneumococcal meningitis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pneumococcal meningitis is associated with high mortality (approximately 30%) and morbidity. Up to 50% of survivors are affected by neurological sequelae due to a wide spectrum of brain injury mainly affecting the cortex and hippocampus ...

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) inhibitor tirabrutinib suppresses osteoclastic bone resorption
Osteoclasts are responsible for bone erosion in osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Both Btk and Tec kinases have essential functions in osteoclast differentiation.

Bruton’s tyrosine kinase is a possible therapeutic target in microscopic polyangiitis
Background Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (Btk) is an enzyme expressed in leukocytes other than T lymphocytes and plasma cells and involved in B-cell receptor- and Fcγ receptor (FcγR)-mediated signal transduction.

Long-term efficacy and safety of first-line ibrutinib treatment for patients with CLL/SLL: 5 years of follow-up from the phase 3 RESONATE-2 study. [PDF]
RESONATE-2 is a phase 3 study of first-line ibrutinib versus chlorambucil in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). Patients aged ≥65 years (n = 269) were randomized 1:1 to once-daily ibrutinib 420 mg continuously or ...

Autoinhibition of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and activation by soluble inositol hexakisphosphate
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), a Tec-family tyrosine kinase, is essential for B-cell function. We present crystallographic and biochemical analyses of Btk, which together reveal molecular details of its autoinhibition and activation.
