چکیده

The diagnosis of essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera is often made during a thrombotic event which can be serious. Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloproliferative neoplasia patients have an increased thrombotic risk. This is assessed using various scoring systems but these are far from ideal and individual risk. The currend trend to personalised medicine requires finding the most useful thrombotic risk biomarker in these patients. Routine tests for coagulation do not take account of both pro- and anti-coagulant factors which is why these tests are not useful in patients with Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms. Thrombin generation reflects more accurately the balance between pro- and anti-coagulant factors. Some parameters of thrombin generation such as the endogenous thrombin potential are higher in Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasm patients, especially in JAK2 V617F carriers than in healthy controls. They are even higher in those with reactive thrombocytosis. The JAK2 V617F allele burden correlates more with a higher thrombin generation potential in patients who are not treated with hydroxycarbamidum. Instead, JAK2 V617F-positive patients with Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms were the most sensitive to hydroxycarbamidum, as was reflected in lower values of platelet thrombin generation potential. The use of thrombin generation examination in these patients would enable detection of imminent thrombosis and personalised prophylactic management.

Thrombotic disease in the myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Thrombosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), particularly polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia. Mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of the acquired thrombophilic state associated with these diseases include abnormalities of MPN clone-derived blood cells, which display prothrombotic ...

Low Frequency of C-MPL Gene Mutations in Iranian Patients with Philadelphia-Negative Myeloproliferative Disorders

Background Myeloproliferative disorders are a group of diseases characterized by increased proliferation of myeloid lineage. In addition to JAK2V617F mutation, several mutations in the c-MPL gene were described in patients with Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders that could be important in the pathogenesis of diseases. The aim of present study was to investigate the fre...

Defining the Thrombotic Risk in Patients with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET) are two Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) associated with an acquired mutation in the JAK2 tyrosine kinase gene. There is a rare incidence of progression to myelofibrosis and myeloid metaplasia in both disorders, which may or may not precede transformation to acute myeloid leukemia, but thrombosis is the main cause...

Association between thromboembolic events and the JAK2 V617F mutation in myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Thrombotic complications are a major cause of death in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), which are closely associated with the JAK2 V617F activating mutation. However, whether the presence of the JAK2 V617F mutation affects thrombotic risk is currently unknown, although some reports have suggested a variable association with thrombosis. Therefor...
