Abstract excerpt
Ph-negative chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD) are characterized by constitutive Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) activation. SOCS3, SOCS1 and PTPN6 (SHP1) are negative regulators of the JAK-STAT pathway. We investigated epigenetic and genetic inactivation of SOCS3, SOCS1 and PTPN6 in 112 CMPD and 20 acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) post-CMPD. SOCS3 methylation...
