Genetic variation at MECOM, TERT, JAK2 and HBS1L-MYB predisposes to myeloproliferative neoplasms

چکیده
Clonal proliferation in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) is driven by somatic mutations in JAK2, CALR or MPL, but the contribution of inherited factors is poorly characterized. Using a three-stage genome-wide association study of 3,437 MPN cases and 10,083 controls, we identify two SNPs with genome-wide significance in JAK2(V617F)-negative MPN: rs12339666 (JAK2; meta-analysis P=1.27 × 10(-10)) and rs2201862 (MECOM; meta-analysis P=1.96 × 10(-9)). Two additional SNPs, rs2736100 (TERT) and rs9376092 (HBS1L/MYB), achieve genome-wide significance when including JAK2(V617F)-positive cases. rs9376092 has a stronger effect in JAK2(V617F)-negative cases with CALR and/or MPL mutations (Breslow-Day P=4.5 × 10(-7)), whereas in JAK2(V617F)-positive cases rs9376092 associates with essential thrombocythemia (ET) rather than polycythemia vera (allelic χ(2) P=7.3 × 10(-7)). Reduced MYB expression, previously linked to development of an ET-like disease in model systems, associates with rs9376092 in normal myeloid cells. These findings demonstrate that multiple germline variants predispose to MPN and link constitutional differences in MYB expression to disease phenotype.

Germline variations at JAK2, TERT, HBS1L-MYB and MECOM and the risk of myeloproliferative neoplasms in Taiwanese population
Germline variations at JAK2, TERT, HBS1L-MYB and MECOM have been found to associate with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in European populations. Whether these germline variations are associated with MPNs in Taiwanese population is obscure. Here we aimed to evaluate the association of five germline variations (JAK2 46/1 haplotype tagged by rs12343867, JAK2 intron 8 rs12339666, TERT rs273610...
متن کاملHyper eosinophilia associated with myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms
Eosinophilia in the absence of allergies, asthma, drug reactions, parasitic infections and connective tissue diseases can be eosinophilic clonal disorders, lymphoma or myeloproliferative disorders. Hypereosinophilia with the persistence of eosinophils ≥1500 /mm³ in blood or more than 20% of eosinophils in the bone marrow may be observed in many reactive or clonal disorders, the result of which ...

The C allele of the rs2736100 single nucleotide polymorphism located in the second intron of the TERT gene has recently been identified as a susceptibility factor for myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) in the Icelandic population. Here, we evaluate the role of TERT rs2736100_C in sporadic and familial MPN in the context of the previously identified JAK2 GGCC predisposition haplotype. We have co...

Background and Aim : Myeloproliferative neoplasms are clonal and heterogeneous disorders of hematopoietic stem cells lead to increase of one or more cell lines in the blood. Recently, the acquired mutation JAK2 V617F has been described in the majority of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs).This mutation is characterized by a G to T transverse at nucleotide 1849 in exon 12 of the J...
