Popis: Background: Chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD) occur due toclonal proliferation of the single hematopoietic stem cells and result in an increased number of mature and immature cells in the peripheral blood. The mutations in JAK2 gene are identified in large numbers of CMPD patients. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate thep.V617F (c.1849G > T) mutation as well as exon 12 mutations in JAK2 gene in the CMPD patients. Methods: Philadelphia chromosome negative CMPD patients were recruited for this study. In order to study p.V617F and JAK2 exon 12 mutations in JAK2 gene, FRET probe real-time PCR, allele specific PCR and PCR-direct sequencing were utilized. Results: JAK2 p.V617F mutation was found in polycythemia vera, Essential thrombocytosis and idiopathic myelofibrosis (67%, 52% and 50% respectively) but not in idiopathic erythrocytosis patients. Also no mutation was found in JAK2 exon 12 of these patients. Conclusions: Our data regarding p.V617F was in concordance with the previous studies. The absence of any mutation in exon 12 of our patients may be due to extracting DNA from whole blood cells instead of granulocytes, that may impact the detection rate of cycle sequencing method.
