Oncogenic CALR mutant C-terminus mediates dual binding to the thrombopoietin receptor triggering complex dimerization and activation

Nicolas Papadopoulos et al.

Summary: In myeloproliferative neoplasms, frameshift mutants of calreticulin turn into rogue cytokines by inducing constitutive activation of the Thrombopoietin Receptor (TpoR). Here, the authors define how mutant calreticulin acquires specificity for TpoR binding and triggers its constitutive activation.

Primary myelofibrosis: 2023 update on diagnosis, risk-stratification, and management

Ayalew Tefferi

Summary: Primary myelofibrosis is a stem cell-derived disorder characterized by clonal myeloproliferation, fibrosis, and other symptoms. Diagnosis is made through bone marrow examination and genetic testing. Treatment options mainly involve drug therapy, and new agents are under investigation.

Blast phase myeloproliferative neoplasm: contemporary review and 2024 treatment algorithm

Ayalew Tefferi et al.

Summary: Leukemic transformation, or blast-phase MPN, is a serious complication of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). The incidence of leukemic transformation varies among different MPNs, with estimates ranging from 1-4% for essential thrombocythemia, 3-7% for polycythemia vera, and 9-13% for primary myelofibrosis. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) offers the best chance of long-term survival in MPN-BP, with a 3-year survival rate of over 30%. Pre-transplant bridging chemotherapy, particularly with venetoclax and hypomethylating agent (HMA), may be beneficial in MPN-BP. The optimal pre-and post-transplant measures to improve transplant outcomes require further study.

Effects of NRAS Mutations on Leukemogenesis and Targeting of Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Jiabi Qian et al.

Summary: Through targeted sequencing and high-throughput drug screening, we studied the role of RAS mutations in ALL patients and found that RAS mutations were associated with a higher relapse incidence in children with ALL. Among these mutations, NRAS mutations had a higher leukemogenic potential and might exhibit different responsiveness to inhibition of multiple signaling pathways.

Progression of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN): Diagnostic and Therapeutic Perspectives

Julian Baumeister et al.

Summary: Classical BCR-ABL-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are a diverse group of diseases, including ET, PV, PMF, and different subsequent conditions. Progression of the disease can be clinically evident or subclinical, with potential increases in bone marrow fibrosis, driver gene mutational burden, and clonal evolution. The underlying causes of MPN progression are diverse and may involve genetic alterations and chronic inflammation.

Functional Consequences of Mutations in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Stefan N. Constantinescu et al.

Summary: Driver mutations in JAK2, CALR, and MPL play crucial roles in BCR-ABL1 negative MPNs, leading to persistent JAK2-STAT5 activation. Epigenetic mutations coexist in 35%-40% of MPNs, promoting clonal hematopoiesis and increased fitness of hematopoietic stem cells. Understanding the interactions between driver mutations and epigenetic rewiring is essential for developing better therapeutic interventions for MPNs.
