17
Q

what is distinctive of ET

A

markedly increased platelets and abnormal platelet function

18
Q

What is ET a neoplasm of

A

multipotential hematopoietic stem cell with uncontrolled proliferation of megakaryocytes

19
Q

what does the JAK2 mutation do

A

promotes cytokine independent growth as well as hypersensitivity to growth fators

20
Q

PV clinical features

A

increased RBC mass - plethora, headache, dizziness, visual disturbances, angina, intermittent claudation splenomegaly, thrombosis or bleeding

21
Q

what neoplasm is associated with the granulocytic pathway

A

CML

22
Q

mastocytosis is noplasm of

A

mast cells

23
Q

is JAK2 mutation specific to a disease?

A

no

24
Q

what drug targets the JAK2 mutation

A

ruxolitinib

25
Q

PV is a neoplasm of what

A

multipotential hematopoietic stem cells, predominat effects on erythroid lineage

26
Q

what drugs can target TK

A

imatinib

27
Q

why doesn’t our immune system attack imatinib

A

its intracellular

28
Q

Clinical features of mastocytosis

A

urticaria pigmentosa - localized cutaneous disease symptomatic mastocytosis - multiorgan involvement

29
Q

what neoplasm is associated with the platelet pathway

A

ET

30
Q

what disease is associated with the BCR-ABL rearrangement

A

CML

31
Q

myeloproliferateive neoplamsms are proliferation…

A

with maturation

32
Q

bone marrow diagnositc findings PMF

A

hypercellular - mostly granulocytic and megakaryocytci reticulin and collagenous fibrosis and osteosclerosis

33
Q

ET bone marrow findings

A

similar to PMF but no fibrosis

34
Q

bone marrow findings for PV

A

decreased or absent iron marked hypercellular with erythroid predominace

35
Q

why are side effects of JAK2 worse than imatinib?

A

JAK2 is used widely in body so blocking it stops other things too

36
Q

lymphoid neoplasms

A

precursor B/T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma Mature B cell neoplasms Mature T cell neoplasms Hodgkin lymphoma

37
Q

bone marrow CML findings

A

markedly hypercellular with granulocyte predominanc Blasts under 10% Mild fibrosis

38
Q

what disease is associated with parked granulocytosis including all stages of maturatin

A

CML

39
Q

clinical feature of ET

A

often asymptomatic thrombosis of large vessels - lower extremities, heart, intestines, kidney bleeding due to platelet functional abnromailites erythromelagia

40
Q

What are examples of myeloproliferative neoplasms

A

CML PV PMF ET mastocytosis

41
Q

what is the philadelphia chromosome and what is it diagnostic for

A

t(9;22)(q34;q11) BCR/ABL fusion gene diagnostic for CML

42
Q

what neoplasm is associated with the erythroid pathway
