Activating mutations in signaling molecules, such as JAK2-V617F, have been associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). Mice lacking the inhibitory adaptor protein Lnk display deregulation of thrombopoietin/thrombopoietin receptor signaling pathways and exhibit similar myeloproliferative characteristics to those found in MPN patients, suggesting a role for Lnk in the molecular pathogenesis of these diseases. Here, we showed that LNK levels are up-regulated and correlate with an increase in the JAK2-V617F mutant allele burden in MPN patients.

Background And Objectives: Paracetamol (acetaminophen) has occasionally been reported to interact with warfarin. The primary end-point of this study was to investigate whether paracetamol initiation potentiates the anticoagulant effect of warfarin and the mechanism of the interaction.

Design And Methods: In a double-blind placebo-controlled, randomized, cross-over study, 20 patients on stable oral anticoagulant therapy with warfarin for at least 1 month were randomized to receive placebo or paracetamol 1g four times daily for 14 days.

Objective: To assess the prevalence and relationships of insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) with inflammatory and hemostatic markers in a representative sample of the population of Southwestern France aged 35-64 years.

Research Design And Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were collected from 597 men and 556 women and were assessed regarding BMI, blood pressure, total and HDL cholesterol levels, triglyceride level, glucose level, plasma insulin level, white blood cell count, fibrinogen level, factor VII level, von Willebrand factor, C-reactive protein level, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule, soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and soluble CD(14). Insulin resistance was defined by homeostasis model assessment > or =3.
