To investigate the effect of ten-eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2) gene mutations on the secondary myelofibrosis (SMF) of JAK2 myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) patients. A retrospective collection was conducted on MPN patients with JAK2 mutation detected by second-generation sequencing in the Department of Hematology, the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University. TET2JAK2 MPN patients were selected as the mutant group, and TET2JAK2 MPN patients matched for age and gender were selected as the non-mutant group.

Background: Myelofibrosis (MF) is a clonal haematopoietic disease, with median overall survival for patients with primary MF only 6.5 years. The most frequent gene mutation found in patients is JAK2, causing constitutive activation of the kinase and activation of downstream signalling.

Article Synopsis
  • * Understanding inherited traits is essential for making decisions regarding allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants (allo-HCT) and choosing suitable donors.
  • * The case of a 49-year-old woman with JAK2 V617F-positive primary myelofibrosis (PMF) illustrates the significance of genetic findings, including a variant in the SH2B3 gene, in clinical management and genetic counseling for transplant options.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how the drug ruxolitinib affects HEL cells and immune markers like PD-1 and PD-L1 in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs).
  • In the newly diagnosed patient group, there was a notable increase in levels of p-JAK2, PD-1, PD-L1, and regulatory T cells (Tregs) when compared to the treatment and control groups.
  • Ruxolitinib demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibition of HEL cell proliferation and decreased the expression of p-JAK2, PD-1, PD-L1, and Tregs, indicating potential therapeutic benefits.

Background: Neutrophils play a crucial role in inflammation and in the increased thrombotic risk in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). We have investigated how neutrophil-specific expression of JAK2-V617F or CALRdel re-programs the functions of neutrophils.

Methods: Ly6G-Cre JAK2-V617F and Ly6G-Cre CALRdel mice were generated.
