CCL24 and essential thrombocythemia: In PB, levels of TIMP-1 and Eotaxin-2 in essential thrombocythemia (ET) group were significantly lower than those in groups of prefibrotic primary myelofibrosis (pre-PMF) [TIMP-1: 685.2 (322.2–1,229) ng/ml vs. 1,369 (1,175–1,497) ng/ml, p = 0.0221; Eotaxin-2: 531.4 (317.9–756.6) pg/ml vs. 942.4 (699.3–1,474) pg/ml, p = 0.0393] and primary myelofibrosis (PMF) [TIMP-1: 685.2 (322.2–1229) ng/ml vs. 1,365 (1,115–1,681) ng/ml, p = 0.0043; Eotaxin-2: 531.4 (317.9–756.6) pg/ml vs. 1,010 (818–1,556) pg/ml, p = 0.0030].
