Epigenetic Modifications: New Therapeutic Targets in Primary Myelofibrosis
Primary Myelofibrosis previously also known as Agnogenic Myeloid Metaplasia or Idiopathic Myelofibrosis is a complex myeloproliferative disease. Although the initial genetic insult that causes uncontrolled proliferation of the defective Hematopoietic Stem Cell/Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell is still elusive, literature is being enriched with reports on the molecular mechanisms that provide growth advantage to the mutant clone and the secondary events that lead to stem cell mobilization, bone marrow
