A Tec kinase BTK inhibitor ibrutinib promotes maturation and activation of dendritic cells.

abstract：:The signal adapter MyD88, an essential component of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling, is important for gut-microbiome interactions. However, its contribution to cancer and its cell-type specific functions are controversially discussed. Therefore, we generated new tissue-specific mouse models and analyzed the clinica...
