What Drives Essential Thrombocythemia? Dr. William Aird on the Pathophysiology of Platelet Overproduction
Dr. William Aird, Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, has posted on X:
“Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) Pathophysiology
ET is driven by one of 3 mutations:
- JAK2 V617F → cytokine-independent signaling
- CALR → abnormal MPL activation
- MPL → constitutive TPO receptor signaling
All lead to unchecked megakaryocyte proliferation and ↑ platelets.”
