Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors alter blood glucose and insulin in obese mice but reduce inflammation independent of BTK.
Obesity is associated with metabolic inflammation, which can contribute to insulin resistance, higher blood glucose, and higher insulin indicative of prediabetes progression. The nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a metabolic danger sensor implicated in metabolic inflammation. Many features of metabolic disease can activate the NLRP3 inflammasome; however, it is not yet clear which upstream triggers to target, and there are no clinically approved NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitors for metabolic disease. Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) mediates activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Ibrutinib is the most-studied pharmacological inhibitor of BTK, and it can improve blood glucose control in obese mice. However, inhibitors of tyrosine kinases are permissive, and it is unknown if BTK inhibitors require BTK to alter endocrine control of metabolism or metabolic inflammation. We tested whether ibrutinib and acalabrutinib, a new generation BTK inhibitor with higher selectivity, require BTK to inhibit the NLRP3 inflammasome, metabolic inflammation, and blood glucose in obese mice.

期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism publishes original, mechanistic studies on the physiology of endocrine and metabolic systems. Physiological, cellular, and molecular studies in whole animals or humans will be considered. Specific themes include, but are not limited to, mechanisms of hormone and growth factor action; hormonal and nutritional regulation of metabolism, inflammation, microbiome and energy balance; integrative organ cross talk; paracrine and autocrine control of endocrine cells; function and activation of hormone receptors; endocrine or metabolic control of channels, transporters, and membrane function; temporal analysis of hormone secretion and metabolism; and mathematical/kinetic modeling of metabolism. Novel molecular, immunological, or biophysical studies of hormone action are also welcome.
