A single point mutation (Val617Phe) was identified in JAK2 in 71 (97%) of 73 patients with polycythaemia vera, 29 (57%) of 51 with essential thrombocythaemia, and eight (50%) of 16 with idiopathic myelofibrosis.

In order to explore the correlation between these two biological markers and compare their diagnostic utility, mutation analysis for JAK2(V617F) and quantitative measurement of granulocyte PRV-1 expression were performed on the same study sample from 100 participants: 38 with PV, 22 with essential thrombocythaemia (ET), 10 with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia (AMM), 19 with secondary polycythaemia (SP) and 11 healthy volunteers.

A point mutation in the Janus kinase 2 exchanging a valine for a phenylalanine at position 617 (JAK2 V617F) was found in 65% to 97% of polycythemia vera (PV) patients, as well as in approximately 50% of essential thrombocythemia (ET) and idiopathic myelofibrosis (IMF) patients.

However, it is very clear that some patients with classical PV lack the JAK2 V617F mutation, while some patients with other chronic myeloproliferative disorders such as idiopathic myelofibrosis (IMF) and essential thrombocytosis (ET) also express the JAK2 V617F mutation.

Although it is in vogue to consider essential thrombocythemia as more than one disease in terms of both molecular phenotype (presence or absence of JAK2(V617F)) and putative pattern of myelopoiesis (monoclonal versus polyclonal), it is yet to be shown that such differences influence either the natural history of the disease or current therapy.

To study the prevalence of the Val617Phe JAK2 mutation in familial cases of myeloproliferative disorder (MPD) and its possible implication as a predisposing genetic factor, we analyzed 72 families including 174 patients (81 polycythemia vera [PV], 68 essential thrombocythemia [ET], 11 myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia [MMM], 12 chronic myeloid leukemia), 1 systemic mastocytosis, and 1 chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML).
