Cytogenetics, JAK2 and MPL mutations in polycythemia vera, primary myelofibrosis and essential thrombocythemia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The detection of molecular and cytogenetic alterations is important for the diagnosis, prognosis and classification of myeloproliferative neoplasms. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to detect the following mutations: JAK2 V617F, JAK2 exon

Triple immunostaining demonstrates the possible existence of segregated-nucleus-containing atypical monocytes in human primary myelofibrosis bone marrow: a case report [PDF]
Background Segregated-nucleus-containing atypical monocytes have recently been identified in mice. Segregated-nucleus-containing atypical monocytes are thought to originate from the bone marrow and induce fibrosis in the drug-injured lung.

From primary myelofibrosis to chronic myeloid leukemia, BCR::ABL1+ B‐Lymphoblastic leukemia, and back to primary myelofibrosis: An illustration of dynamic clonal evolution [PDF]
The simultaneous detection of BCR::ABL1 and JAK2 V617F was rarely reported and their clonal relationship and dynamic clonal shift were not characterized. Here, we described a unique case with the initial presentation as JAK2 V617F+ primary myelofibrosis,

Primary myelofibrosis: current therapeutic options
Primary myelofibrosis is a Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by clonal myeloid expansion, followed by progressive fibrous connective tissue deposition in the bone marrow, resulting in bone marrow failure.

Abstract Myelofibrosis is a reactive process common to many malignant and benign disorders. Primary myelofibrosis is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm arising in a pluripotent haematopoietic stem cell. It results in abnormalities in red cell, granulocyte, and platelet production in association with marrow fibrosis and ...

Janus kinase 2 inhibition by pacritinib as potential therapeutic target for liver fibrosis
Diagram of the activation of the profibrotic and procontractile Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/Ras homolog family member A/Rho‐kinase pathway and the inhibition of phosphorylated JAK2 by pacritinib to inhibit hepatic stellate cell activity. Abstract Background and Aims Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) signaling is increased in human and experimental liver fibrosis with ...

Disseminated tuberculosis with myelofibrosis presentation: a case report
Background Primary myelofibrosis is a rare myeloproliferative disorder in middle-aged and old adults and should be distinguished from secondary and reactive causes of bone marrow fibrosis because, in reactive fibrosis, treatment approaches depend on the ...

Pediatric immune myelofibrosis (PedIMF) as a novel and distinct clinical pathological entity
Myelofibrosis is a rare myeloproliferative disorder. The detailed descriptions of myelofibrosis in children and adolescents is limited to a few case series and case reports describing fewer than 100 patients, thus suggesting the extreme rarity of this ...
