Abstract:JAK2 V617F is the predominant driver mutation in patients with Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). JAK2 mutations are also frequent in clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) in otherwise “healthy” individuals. However, the period between mutation acquisition and MPN diagnosis (known as latency) varies widely between individuals, with JAK2 mutations detectable several decades before diagnosis and even from birth in some individuals. Here, we will review the current evidence… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
