Abstract
AbstractAn altered thrombo-hemorrhagic profile has long been observed in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). We hypothesized that this observed clinical phenotype may result from altered expression of genes known to harbor genetic variants in bleeding, thrombotic, or platelet disorders. Here, we identify 32 genes from a clinically validated gene panel that were also significantly differentially expressed in platelets from MPN patients as opposed to healthy donors.This work begins to unravel previously unclear mechanisms underlying an important clinical reality in MPNs. Knowledge of altered platelet gene expression in MPN thrombosis/bleeding diathesis opens opportunities to advance clinical care by: (1) enabling risk stratification, in particular, for patients undergoing invasive procedures, and (2) facilitating tailoring of treatment strategies for those at highest risk, for example, in the form of antifibrinolytics, desmopressin or platelet transfusions (not current routine practice). Marker genes identified in this work may also enable prioritization of candidates in future MPN mechanistic as well as outcome studies.
