The identification of an acquired mutation of JAK2 in
patients with myeloproliferative disorders has raised
questions about the relationship between mutation-
positive and mutation-negative subtypes, timing of the
JAK2 mutation and molecular mechanisms of disease
progression. Here we demonstrate that patients with
V617F-negative essential thrombocythemia do not commonly
progress to become V617F-positive. Consistent with the
concept of distinct pathogenetic mechanisms, we show
that patients with and without the JAK2 mutation have
different patterns of cytogenetic abnormality, with
virtually all patients carrying 20q deletion or trisomy
9 being V617F-positive. We also investigated the
existence of a 'pre-JAK2' phase by comparing the
proportion of clonally-derived granulocytes, estimated
from X chromosome inactivation patterns (XCIPs), with
the proportion of V617F-positive granulocytes. Our
results demonstrate that inherent XCIP variability
between granulocytes and T cells produces a
systematically biased pattern of results which may be
misinterpreted as evidence for an excess of clonally-
derived granulocytes, an observation which limits the
utility of XCIP analysis in this context. Lastly we
studied four patients with V617F-positive
myeloproliferative disorders who subsequently developed
acute myeloid leukemia. In three patients the leukemic
cells were V617F-negative, suggesting that in these
patients the leukemia arose in a V617F-negative cell.
