Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms display alterations in monocyte subpopulations frequency and immunophenotype.

ABSTRACT: Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are clonal hematological diseases associated with driver mutations in JAK2, CALR, and MPL genes. Moreover, several evidence suggests that chronic inflammation and alterations in stromal and immune cells may contribute to MPN's pathophysiology. We evaluated the frequency and the immunophenotype of peripheral blood monocyte subpopulations in patients with polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (MF). Peripheral blood monocytes from PV (n = 16), ET (n = 16), and MF (n = 15) patients and healthy donors (n = 10) were isolated and submitted to immunophenotyping to determine the frequency of monocyte subpopulations and surface markers expression density. Plasma samples were used to measure the level
