We evaluated the NOD/SCID engraftment of CD34(+) cells from polycythemia vera (PV) and secondary polycythemia patients (SP) and the JAK2V617F clone before and after transplantation. Peripheral blood CD34(+) cells were transplanted intra-femorally. In the injected BM, successful engraftment (>0.1%) occurred in 8/26 mice transplanted with CD34+ cells from 5/13 PV patients (median: 4.26%, range: 0.3-5.56%), in contrast to 0/14 mice from 9 SP patients (P=0.017). The engrafting PV cells were of multi-lineage. JAK2V617F/total JAK2 ratios decreased after transplantation (initial: 65.9% versus 6-week: 13.0%, P=0.001). Essential thrombocythemia (ET) BM cells also exhibited a similar decrease in JAK2V617F clone. The results suggested that events in addition to JAK2V617F are involved in the pathogenesis of PV and ET.
