Gene expression profiling showed that the FREM1, IFI27 and C4B_2 genes are overexpressed in familial MPN, suggesting the activation of an “inflammatory response-extracellular matrix-immune regulation” signaling network in the CHST15 mutation background.We thus concluded that CHST15 is a novel gene that predisposes to familial MPN and increases the probability of disease development or transformation. Here, IFI27 is linked to myeloproliferative neoplasm.
