Abstract excerpt
The JAK2V617F mutation has been found in most cases of Ph-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms. Recent studies have shown that expression of Jak2V617F in the hematopoietic compartment causes marked expansion of erythroid progenitors and their transformation to cytokine-independence. To determine if erythroid progenitors are the target cells for induction and propagation of Jak2V617F-evoked myeloproliferative...
