MUTATIONAL ANALYSIS OF CHRONIC MYELOPROLIFERATIVE DISORDERS

摘要

The invention relates to molecular assays, reagents and kit for the mutational analysis, for diagnostic and prognostic purposes, of chronic myeloproliferative disorders, a group of neoplastic pathologies of the haemopoietic system. The invention relates to the identification of nucleic acid probes labelled with fluorochrome, allowing a quantitative assessment, in a specific and sensitive way, of mutation of MPL gene sequence and quantification of the mutated alleles of the MPL gene in Genomic DNA samples from patients with chronic myeloproliferative syndrome.
