Conditional expression of heterozygous or homozygous Jak2V617F from its endogenous promoter induces a polycythemia vera–like disease
3 Mar 2010
Abstract excerpt
A somatic point mutation (V617F) in the JAK2 tyrosine kinase was found in a majority of patients with polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia, and primary myelofibrosis. However, contribution of the JAK2V617F mutation in these 3 clinically distinct myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) remained unclear. To investigate the role of JAK2V617F in the pathogenesis of these MPNs, we generated an inducible...
