Relationship between the 46/1 haplotype of the JAK2 gene and the JAK2 mutational status and allele burden, the initial findings, and the survival of patients with myelofibrosis.

Abstract excerpt

An association has been reported between a specific haplotype of the JAK2 gene, the homozygous 46/1 haplotype, and a predisposition to the development of chromosome Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms. Concerning myelofibrosis (MF), controversy remains on the relationship between the above JAK2 haplotype and the patients' clinicohematological features and survival. Among 132 patients with MF (60 %...
