Thromboprophylaxis of Patients with JAK2-Positive Myeloproliferative Neoplasms

Kimpton, Miriam 08 November 2021 (has links)
Patients with JAK2-positive myeloproliferative neoplasms (JAK2MPN) form a rare patient population, at increased risk of arterial and venous thrombosis. Limited research is available to guide the thromboprophylaxis of these patients. Nonetheless, guidelines and expert opinions recommend the use of low-dose aspirin to decrease the risk of thrombotic complications. In order to build a research program on the thromboprophylaxis of JAK2MPN patients and assess the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial comparing low-dose apixaban to low-dose aspirin for thromboprophylaxis in this patient population, we completed a systematic review and meta-analysis to provide reliable rates of thrombosis and bleeding on aspirin, we performed a survey of practice and a modified Delphi process to assess for heterogeneity in clinical practice and determine future research needs, and we developed a multi-centre, pilot randomized controlled trial on the feasibility of enrolling and retaining this patient population.

Mechanisms of Endocytic Sorting: A Dissertation

Leonard, Deborah Marie 15 December 2006 (has links)
Endocytosis is important for the regulation of signal transduction and for the movement of essential cellular components from outside the cell to their appropriate intracellular compartment(s). Two established mechanisms of endocytosis are clathrinmediated (CME) and clathrin-independent endocytosis, and they are responsible for internalization of different ligands. In this study, the newly established technique of total internal reflection fluorescent microscopy (TIRF-M) was used, along with standard biochemical and molecular biological tools, to systematically study the sorting and early trafficking of two established ligands of endocytosis, transferrin (Tf) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). TIRF-M studies revealed that Tf binds its receptor that is located in large clathrin arrays positioned just below the surface of the cell and that these large clathrin platforms serves as the major site of CME at the plasma membrane. EGF endocytosis is very different and occurs as follows 1) the liganded EGFR recruits Rab5 to the plasma membrane, 2) Rab5 concentrates around vesicles containing liganded EGFR and 3) these vesicles co-localize with EEA1 enriched endosomes. EEA1 was shown to play a pivotal role in EGF endocytosis, establishing a new role for EEA1 in vesicle trafficking in addition to its role in tethering and fusion. Finally, WDFY2, a new FYVE domain protein was shown to decorate a specific subset of vesicles, upstream of the EEA1 vesicle pool that appear to participate in Tf endocytosis. These studies establish new functions and components of endocytosis that enhances our understanding of this complex process.

Identification et fonction de nouvelles mutations des récepteurs à la thrombopoïétine et à l’érythropoïétine dans les néoplasmes myéloprolifératifs et les érythrocytoses. / Identification and role of thrombopoietin and erythropoietin receptors mutations in myeloproliferative neoplasms and erythrocytosis

Pasquier, Florence 05 November 2015 (has links)
Le récepteur à l’érythropoïétine (EPOR) peut être muté dans les érythrocytoses congénitales tandis que des mutations de MPL, récepteur à la thrombopoiétine, sont observées dans certains néoplasmes myéloprolifératifs (NMP). L’érythrocytose congénitale touche exclusivement les progéniteurs érythroïdes et se traduit par une polyglobulie isolée. Des mutations d’EPOR sont décrites dans environ 12% des cas. La première partie de cette thèse reposait sur l’étude fonctionnelle d’une mutation d’EPOR, jamais décrite, c.1300dupC (p.Gln434Profs*11). Ce mutant est responsable, dans les cellules primaires et les lignées cellulaires, d’une hypersensibilité majeure à l’EPO qui n’est pas due à la perte de sites de régulation négative du signal ou à un défaut d’internalisation du récepteur, contrairement aux données de la littérature, mais à une stabilisation d’EPOR à la membrane cellulaire par probable changement conformationnel. Dans la seconde partie, un variant d’EPOR Pro488Ser a été étudié au sein d’une famille de NMP. Seule une activation spontanée faible de STAT5 a pu être mise en évidence dans les lignées cellulaires. Des modèles murins et/ou d’iPSC seront développés dans l’hypothèse d’une coopération entre EPOR P488S et JAK2V617F. Enfin, dans la dernière partie de ce travail, nous avons réalisé une étude fonctionnelle de 2 mutations rares de MPL, Tyr591Asn et Ser204Pro, identifiées chez 3 patients TE triples négatifs. Seul un gain de fonction faible a été mis en évidence, suggérant que ces mutations doivent être associées à d’autres anomalies génétiques pour entrainer l’apparition d’un phénotype. / EPOR mutations are observed in Primary familial and congenital polycythaemia (PFCP) while MPL mutations are found in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). PFCP is an inherited disorder of erythroid progenitor cells resulting in elevated erythrocyte mass. Several mutations of the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) gene have been associated with PFCP. They are all leading to a premature STOP codon and the truncation of the cytoplasmic COOH-terminal of EPOR. To examine the role of EPOR mutations in the pathogenesis of PFCP, we studied a new EPOR mutation, c.1300dupC (p.Gln434Profs*11). This mutation induced, in primary cells and cell lines, a major hypersensitivity to EPO. This phenotype was not due to the loss of negative regulation domains or an internalisation default, contrary to the current hypothesis, but rather due to conformational modification inducing the stabilisation of the mutant at the cell membrane.In the second part of this work, an EPOR mutation, Pro488Ser, was studied in a myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) family. Only a mild spontaneous STAT5 activation was observed in cell lines. Murine models and/or iPSC will be developed in order to test the hypothesis of a cooperation between EPOR P488S and JAK2 V617F. In the last part of this project, 2 rare MPL mutants, Tyr591Asn and Ser204Pro, identified in 3 triple negative ET patients were functionally studied. A weak gain of function was observed, suggesting that these mutants have to be associated to other genetic abnormalities to develop a phenotype.
