Development of SYK NanoBRET Cellular Target Engagement Assays for Gain-of-Function Variants.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that is activated by phosphorylation events downstream of FcR, B-cell and T-cell receptors, integrins, and C-type lectin receptors. When the tandem Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of SYK bind to phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (pITAMs) contained within these immunoreceptors, or when SYK is phosphorylated in interdomain regions A and B, SYK is activated. SYK gain-of-function (GoF) variants were previously identified in six patients that had higher levels of phosphorylated SYK and phosphorylated downstream proteins JNK and ERK. Furthermore, the increased SYK activation resulted in the clinical manifestation of immune dysregulation, organ inflammation, and a predisposition for lymphoma. The knowledge that the SYK GoF variants have enhanced activity was leveraged to develop a SYK NanoBRET cellular target engagement assay in intact live cells with constructs for the SYK GoF variants. Herein, we developed a potent SYK-targeted NanoBRET tracer using a SYK donated chemical probe, MRL-SYKi, that enabled a NanoBRET cellular target engagement assay for SYK GoF variants, SYK(S550Y), SYK(S550F), and SYK(P342T). We determined that ATP-competitive SYK inhibitors bind potently to these SYK variants in intact live cells. Additionally, we demonstrated that MRL-SYKi can effectively reduce the catalytic activity of SYK variants, and the phosphorylation levels of SYK(S550Y) in an epithelial cell line (SW480) stably expressing SYK(S550Y).
