AlRashed (24912007) Oncology and Carcinogenesis not elsewhere classified JAK2 46/1 haplotype JAK2V617F myeloproliferative neoplasms rs12343867 Saudi Arabia Background<p>JAK2V617F is an important mutation associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). The germline JAK2 46/1 haplotype is an established low-penetrance predisposition factor for MPNs across multiple ethnicities. This study aimed to characterize JAK2V617F mutation prevalence and JAK2 46/1 haplotype distribution in a Saudi Arabian MPN cohort.</p>Methods<p>A retrospective cohort study was conducted at King Fahad Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A total of 130 participants (98 MPN patients and 32 non-MPN controls) were enrolled between January 2018 and December 2019. JAK2V617F mutation status was determined by allele-specific TaqMan qPCR. SNPs rs12343867 and rs10974900 were genotyped using validated TaqMan SNP assays to define haplotype carrier status.</p>Results<p>JAK2V617F was detected in 13.1% of patients (n=17; 9 females, 8 males), with no statistically significant sex-based difference in mutation frequency. At rs12343867, the aggregate 46/1 haplotype carrier frequency was 80.7% (homozygous TT: 51.5%; heterozygous CT: 29.2%). By MPN subtype, TT homozygosity was most prevalent in ET (56.3%). By MPN subtype, the CC genotype predominated in ET (57.8%), PV (50.0%), PMF (75.0%), and non-MPN controls (54.8%).</p>Conclusions<p>This is the first study to simultaneously characterize JAK2V617F and the germline JAK2 46/1 haplotype in a Saudi Arabian MPN cohort. The elevated haplotype carrier frequency supports an inherited predisposition to MPN in this population and positions the JAK2 46/1 haplotype as a candidate supplementary biomarker for risk stratification. Prospective, multi-centre studies incorporating comprehensive driver mutation profiling and population-matched healthy controls are warranted.</p> 2026-09-15T04:27:50Z Dataset Dataset 10.3389/fonc.2026.1910710.s001 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Table_1_Characterization_of_JAK2V617F_and_the_JAK2_46_1_germline_haplotype_in_myeloproliferative_neoplasms_in_a_Saudi_Arabian_cohort_a_case-based_analysis_docx/33770800 CC BY 4.0
