BACKGROUND Approximately 50 to 60% of patients with essential thrombocythemia or primary myelofibrosis carry a mutation in the Janus kinase 2 gene (JAK2), and an additional 5 to 10% have activating mutations in the thrombopoietin receptor gene (MPL. [] Key Method Resequencing of CALR, encoding calreticulin, was then performed in cohorts of patients with myeloid neoplasms. RESULTS Somatic insertions or deletions in exon 9 of CALR were detected in all patients who underwent whole-exome sequencing…

TLDR
The CALR mutations are the second most frequent mutations in Ph− MPN patients after the JAK2V617F mutation, and their detection has significantly improved the diagnostic approach for ET and PMF.
Calreticulin Exon 9 Mutations in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
TLDR
Genotyping for CALR could be a useful diagnostic tool for JAK2-or MPL-negative ET or PMF patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms, and may be a distinct disease group, with different hematological characteristics than that of Jak2-positive patients.
Distinct clinical characteristics of myeloproliferative neoplasms with calreticulin mutations
TLDR
It is confirmed that calreticulin mutation is associated with distinct clinical characteristics and relationships between mutation type, load and clinical outcome are explored.
Calreticulin mutation profile in Indian patients with primary myelofibrosis
TLDR
CALR mutations have a distinct molecular profile in Indian patients, different from that of other studies worldwide, and larger prospective studies need to be designed to establish the impact of paucity of Type II mutations in contributing to disease phenotype and prognostic outcome of patients.
CALR exon 9 mutations are somatically acquired events in familial cases of essential thrombocythemia or primary myelofibrosis.
TLDR
A significant proportion of familial ET and PMF nonmutated for JAK2 carry a somatic mutation of CALR, and patients with CALR-mutated ET showed a higher platelet count and a lower cumulative incidence of thrombosis and of disease progression compared with those withJAK2 (V617F).
The Mutation Profile of Calreticulin in Patients with Myeloproliferative Neoplasms and Acute Leukemia
TLDR
It was shown that MPN patients carrying CALR mutations presented with higher platelet counts and lower hemoglobin levels compared to those with mutated JAK2, and all of the leukemia patients had negative results for CALR mutation.
Mutant Calreticulin in the Myeloproliferative Neoplasms
TLDR
The discovery and subsequent study of CALR mutations have illuminated novel aspects of megakaryopoiesis and raised the possibility of new therapeutic approaches, with CALR mutant patients showing increased overall survival.
Calreticulin Mutations in Bulgarian MPN Patients
TLDR
The study shows that the frequency and patterns of these mutations is identical to those in the patients’ cohorts from Western countries, and demonstrates the utility of four different methods for their detection.

A gain-of-function mutation of JAK2 in myeloproliferative disorders.
TLDR
Genetic evidence and in vitro functional studies indicate that V617F gives hematopoietic precursors proliferative and survival advantages and a high proportion of patients with myeloproliferative disorders carry a dominant gain-of-function mutation of JAK2.
Molecular and clinical features of the myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with JAK2 exon 12 mutations.
TLDR
Findings suggest that, despite the phenotypical difference, the outcome of JAK2 exon 12 mutations-positive PV is similar to that ofJAK2 (V617F)-positive PV.
JAK2 exon 12 mutations in polycythemia vera and idiopathic erythrocytosis.
TLDR
Four somatic gain-of-function mutations affecting JAK2 exon 12 define a distinctive myeloproliferative syndrome that affects patients who currently receive a diagnosis of polycythemia vera or idiopathic erythrocytosis.
Mutation in TET2 in myeloid cancers.
TLDR
Somatic mutations in TET2 occur in about 15% of patients with various myeloid cancers and were present in hematopoietic stem cells and preceded the JAK2 V617F mutation in the five samples from patients with myeloproliferative disorders that were analyzed.
Frequent CBL mutations associated with 11q acquired uniparental disomy in myeloproliferative neoplasms.
TLDR
It is concluded that acquired, transforming CBL mutations are a novel and widespread pathogenetic abnormality in morphologically related, clinically aggressive MPNs.
TET2 mutations and their clinical correlates in polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia and myelofibrosis
TLDR
TET2 mutations occur in both JAK2V617F-positive and -negative MPN, are more prevalent in older patients, display similar frequencies across MPN subcategories and disease stages, and hold limited prognostic relevance.
MPLW515L Is a Novel Somatic Activating Mutation in Myelofibrosis with Myeloid Metaplasia
TLDR
Activation of JAK-STAT signaling via MPLW515L is an important pathogenetic event in patients with JAK2V617F-negative MF, including extramedullary hematopoiesis, splenomegaly, and megakaryocytic proliferation.
Genetic complexity of myeloproliferative neoplasms
TLDR
The somatic mutations inMPN do not seem to be acquired in a predetermined order as seen in other malignancies, but occur randomly, and the role of uniparental disomy in MPN and certain aspects of MPN therapy are discussed.
Acquired copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity of chromosome 1p as a molecular event associated with marrow fibrosis in MPL-mutated myeloproliferative neoplasms.
TLDR
Observations suggest that acquired CN-LOH of chromosome 1p involving the MPL location may represent a molecular mechanism of fibrotic transformation in MPL-mutated myeloproliferative neoplasms.
EZH2 mutational status predicts poor survival in myelofibrosis.
TLDR
EZH2 mutations are independently associated with shorter survival in patients with PMF and in multivariate analysis, survival of PMF patients was predicted by IPSS high-risk category, a < 25% JAK2V617F allele burden, and EZh2 mutation status.
