Abstract excerpt
We studied the relationship between granulocyte JAK2 (V617F) mutation status, circulating CD34(+) cells, and granulocyte activation in myeloproliferative disorders. Quantitative allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) showed significant differences between various disorders with respect to either the proportion of positive patients (53%-100%) or that of mutant alleles, which overall ranged from 1% to...
