Idiopathic myelofibrosis (IM) is a disease characterized by marrow fibrosis, abnormal stem/progenitor cell trafficking, and extramedullary hematopoiesis frequently associated with alterations in megakaryocytes (Mks). Mice harboring genetic alterations in either the extrinsic (ectopic thrombopoietin expression, TPOhigh mice) or intrinsic (hypomorphic GATA-1 mutation, GATA-1(low) mice) control of Mk differentiation develop myelofibrosis, a syndrome similar to IM. The relationship, if any, between the pathofibrologic mechaand spleen. Surprisingly, TPO treatment of GATA-1(low) mice restored the GATA-1 content in Mks and halted both defective thrombocytopoiesis and fibrosis. These data indicate that the TPOhigh and GATA1(low) alterations are linked in an upstream-downstream relationship along a pathobiologic pathway leading to development of myelofibrosis in mice and, possibly, of IM in humans.
