T
he JAK2
V617F
mutated trilinear myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) is featured by clinical phenotypes ranging from
essential thrombocythemia (ET), prodromal polycythemia vera (PV), erythrocythemic PV, classical PV, masked PV and
PV complicated by splenomegaly and myelofibrosis (MF). The JAK2
V617F
mutation load increases from below 30% in ET to
above 50% in PV and further increases to 80% to 100% due to mitotic recombination of chromosome 9p from heterozygous
into heterozygous homozygous and homozygous (9p loss of heterogeneity: 9pLOH) in PV and MF. Bone marrow histology of
clustered increase of large pleomorphic megakaryocytes (M) with hyperlobulated nuclei are similar in JAK2
V617F
normocellular
ET, prodromal PV and classical PV. Bone marrow cellularity sequentially increases in JAK2
V617F
mutated ET and PV due to
erythromegakaryoytic (EM) and trilinear erythron-megakaryo-granulocytic (EMG) proliferation.
Two main variants of megakaryocytic leukemia (Dameshek 1951) or ET with platelet counts around 1000x109/L and no
features of PV include MPL
515
and CALR mutated thrombocythemia. Bone marrow histology in MPL
515
thrombocythemia is
featured by megakaryocytic myeloproliferation (M) of large to giant megakaryocytes with hyperlobulated staghorn like nuclei
in a normocellular bone marrow. Bone marrow histology of CALR thrombocythemia is characterized by megakaryocytic (M)
myeloproliferation of large to giant immature megakaryocytes in a normocellular bone marrow followed by primary dual
megakaryocytic granulocytic myeloproliferation (PMGM). Natural history and life expectancy of JAK2
V617F
, MPL
515
and CALR
mutatedMPNpatients are related to the response to treatment, the degree of anemia, splenomegaly, myelofibrosis and constitutional
symptoms. Epigenetic mutations at increasing age predict unfavorable outcome in adanced stages of JAK2
V617F
, CALR and MPL
mutated MPN. Low dose aspirin in JAK2
V617F
, MPL
515
and TPO mutated ET and phlebotomy on top of aspirin in prodromal and
classical PV will prevent platelet-mediated microvascular and major thrombotic events (Sticky Platelet Syndrome). Pegaylated
interferon (IFN) in JAK2
V617F
ET and PV and IFN or anagrelide in CALR and MPL
515
mutated thrombocythemias without
features of PV are first line treatment options for the control of platelet count to prevent thrombohemorrhagic complications and
for the control of MPN disease burden and spleen size to improve survival and quality of life. Ruxolitinib deserves a better place
in the treatment of hypercellular PV to reduce MPN disease burden in symptomatic hypercellular PV before significant marrow
fibrosis and splenomegaly do occur.
