Abstract

BACKGROUND: Cytokines are key immune mediators in physiological and disease processes, whose increased levels have been associated with the physiopathology of hematopoietic malignancies, such as myeloproliferative neoplasms. METHODS: This study examined the plasma cytokine profiles of patients with essential thrombocythemia, primary myelofibrosis, polycythemia vera and of healthy subjects, and analyzed correlations with JAK2 V617F status and clinical-hematological parameters. RESULTS: The proinflammatory cytokine levels were increased in myeloproliferative neoplasm patients, and the presence of the JAK2 V617F mutation was associated with high IP-10 levels in primary myelofibrosis patients. CONCLUSIONS: Essential thrombocythemia, primary myelofibrosis, and polycythemia vera patients exhibited different patterns of cytokine production, as revealed by cytokine network correlations. Together, these findings suggest that augmented cytokine levels are associated with the physiopathology of myeloproliferative neoplasms.

  • The mouse experiments recapitulate chronic inflammation through induction of multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines known to be increased in the serum of patients with MPN, including IFNγ.

    “These experiments recapitulate chronic inflammation through induction of multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines34,35 known to be increased in the serum of patients with MPN36, including IFNγ (Fig. 5a and Extended Data Fig. 10a).”

    From Single-cell multi-omics identifies chronic inflammation as a driver of TP53-mutant leukemic evolution (2023) · cites this paper as [36]

    The Results section (page not provided) reports elevated plasma levels of several cytokines in MPN patients compared with controls. It reports higher IFN-γ in PMF patients than in ET patients, but not compared with healthy controls; the Discussion also recounts a study finding lower IFN-γ in PMF patients than in controls. Thus the source supports the broader cytokine claim, but not the unqualified implication that IFN-γ is increased in MPN patients relative to healthy people. The mouse experiments are not the part attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
