Identification of MPL R102P Mutation in Hereditary Thrombocytosis
20 Sept 2017
Abstract excerpt
The molecular basis of hereditary thrombocytosis are germline mutations affecting the thrombopoietin (TPO)/TPO receptor (MPL)/JAK2 signaling axis. Here, we report one family presenting two cases with a mild thrombocytosis. By sequencing JAK2 and MPL coding exons, we identified a germline MPL R102P heterozygous mutation in the proband and his daughter. Concomitantly, we detected high TPO levels in the serum of...
