Abstract excerpt
The JAK(V617F) mutation is responsible for the majority of breakpoint cluster region (BCR)/Abelson (ABL)-negative myeloproliferative disorders. Ongoing clinical trials of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) inhibitors in myeloproliferative disorder patients use small molecules targeting both wild-type and mutated JAK2. To selectively target malignant cells, we developed JAK2(V617F)-specific small interfering RNAs or short...
