Bruton's tyrosine kinase is required for TLR2 and TLR4-induced TNF, but not IL-6, production.

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), the gene mutated in the human immunodeficiency X-linked agammaglobulinemia, is activated by LPS and is required for LPS-induced TNF production. In this study, we have investigated the role of Btk both in signaling via another TLR (TLR2) and in the production of o...
