Myeloproliferative MPL gene cancer diagnostics

Purpose of the test

The myeloproliferative leukemia gene (MPL) encodes a thrombopoietin receptor protein (CD110). Somatic mutations at p.W515L, p.W515K are associated m.in with severe anaemia and are detected in patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis (MF). The mutation rate is 0% in PV (polycythemia vera), 1% in ET and 5-7% in MF.

Indications for performing the test

Diagnosis of myeloproliferative tumors with the absence of mutations in the JAK2 gene. JAK2.

Frequency of MPL mutations in exon 10:

  • essential thrombocythemia – about 1%
  • myelofibrosis – 5-8%
