Recent research has increasingly focused on the interactions between CML and other genetic mutations, particularly the JAK2 V617F mutation, which is commonly associated with other ...
The JAK2 mutation is also frequently found in those with polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia. This mutation isn't inherited. Instead, it develops spontaneously in a bone marrow cell.
