Loss of <i>Ezh2</i> synergizes with <i>JAK2</i> -V617F in initiating myeloproliferative neoplasms and promoting myelofibrosis
11 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
Myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) patients frequently show co-occurrence of JAK2-V617F and mutations in epigenetic regulator genes, including EZH2 In this study, we show that JAK2-V617F and loss of Ezh2 in hematopoietic cells contribute synergistically to the development of MPN. The MPN phenotype induced by JAK2-V617F was accentuated in JAK2-V617F;Ezh2(-/-) mice, resulting in very high platelet and neutrophil...
