2-(Bromomethyl) acrylic acid is a Brutons tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. 2-(Bromomethyl) acrylic acid forms a covalent bond with the cysteine 481 (Cys481) residue of BTK via a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction, thereby inhibiting the downstream B-cell receptor signaling pathway. 2-(Bromomethyl) acrylic acid induces immunogenic cell death in BTK-expressing B-cell lymphoma cells by releasing damage-associated molecular patterns including extracellular ATP and HMGB1. 2-(Bromomethyl) acrylic acid exhibits cytotoxicity against BTK-expressing B-cell lymphoma cells, but shows low toxicity to BTK-negative cells. 2-(Bromomethyl) acrylic acid can be used in studies related to B-cell lymphoma[1].
