Introduction: Myelofibrosis (MF) is often characterized by a multifactorial anemia determined, in part, by bone marrow (BM) fibrosis, extramedullary erythropoiesis and splenomegaly. Ruxolitinib (RUX) is the first-in-class janus kinase 2 (JAK2) inhibitor approved for treatment of MF, proved to reduce spleen volume and decrease symptom burden. The red cell distribution width (RDW) is the measure of erythrocyte volume variability (anisocytosis).

Elevated circulating levels of calprotectin (CAL), the S100A8/A9 heterodimer, are biomarkers of severe systemic inflammation. Here, we investigate the effects of CAL on early human hematopoiesis. CAL demonstrates limited impact on gene expression in stem and progenitor cells, in contrast with interleukin-6 (IL6), which promotes the expression of the and genes in hematopoietic progenitors and the generation of monocytes that release CAL.

To explore the role of osteocytes in the process we performed bulk RNAseq of osteocytes isolated from control and phlebotomized mice. The top-upregulated gene following phlebotomy was , erythroferrone ( ).

Patients with chronic inflammation are burdened with anemia of inflammation (AI), where inflammatory cytokines inhibit erythropoiesis, impede erythropoietin production, and limit iron availability by inducing the iron regulator hepcidin. High hepcidin hinders iron absorption and recycling, thereby worsening the impaired erythropoiesis by restricting iron availability. AI management is important as anemia impacts quality of life and potentially affects morbidity and mortality.

Before committing to an erythroid cell lineage, hematopoietic stem cells differentiate along a myeloid cell pathway to generate megakaryocyte-erythroid biopotential progenitor cells in bone marrow. Recent studies suggest that erythroid progenitors (EryPs) could be generated at the level of common myeloid progenitors (CMPs). However, due to a lack of suitable markers, little is known about the early differentiation of these committed EryP cells during CMP development.
