A group of biomedical researchers from around the world, including Dr. Alexander Bick at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, have developed a new technique called PACER to measure the growth rate of abnormal blood stem cells. This breakthrough could help doctors reduce their patients future risk of blood cancer. Why This Matters: The Importance of Understanding […]
9 Tips for Reducing Risks of Thrombosis in MPNs
by David Wallace Understanding Thrombosis in MPN Patients Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of chronic blood cancers that affect the normal functioning of blood cells. People living with MPNs, such as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and myelofibrosis (MF), have an increased risk of developing blood clots, or thrombosis. Thrombosis can lead to […]

Modified CALR Mutation helps Identify New Drug Targets for MPN Cancer
Summary The research article discusses myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It focuses on the Calreticulin (CALR) mutation found in 20% to 25% of MPN patients (with ET and MF) and, which is a potential target for new drug therapies. The authors describe a novel approach using […]
Blood Cancer Discovery: Scientists Create Human Bone Marrow Organoids to Improve Anti-Cancer Treatments
Summary This blood cancer discovery highlights a new approach for investigating blood cancers and bone marrow disorders. MPNs or myeloproliferative neoplasms are blood cancers in which the bone marrow makes too many red blood cells, platelets or white blood cells. Currently, there are limited models available to understand the development and response to treatments of […]
