RESUMEN
BCR::ABL1-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms are hematopoietic disorders characterized by panmyelosis. JAK2 V617F is a frequent variant in these diseases and often occurs in the 46/1 haplotype. The G allele of rs10974944 has been shown to be associated with this variant, specifically its acquisition, correlations with familial cases, and laboratory alterations. This study evaluated the association between the 46/1 haplotype and JAK2 V617F in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms in a population from the Brazilian Amazon. Clinical, laboratory and molecular sequencing analyses were considered. Carriers of the G allele of rs10974944 with polycythemia vera showed an increase in mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin, while in those with essential thrombocythemia, there was an elevation in red blood cells, hematocrit, and hemoglobin. Associations were observed between rs10974944 and the JAK2 V617F, in which the G allele (OR 3.4; p < 0.0001) and GG genotype (OR 4.9; p = 0.0016) were associated with JAK2 V617F + and an increase in variant allele frequency (GG: OR 15.8; p = < 0.0001; G: OR 6.0; p = 0.0002). These results suggest an association between rs10974944 (G) and a status for JAK2 V617F, JAK2 V617F + _VAF ≥ 50%, and laboratory alterations in the erythroid lineage.
