The JAK-2 (Janus kinase 2) mutation, specifically the V617F variant, detected by Real-Time PCR, is notably associated with myeloproliferative disorders, collectively known as chronic myeloproliferative disorders (CMPD). This genetic mutation plays a pivotal role in the dysregulation of hematopoietic stem cell proliferation, leading to the overproduction of blood cells. Real-Time PCR, a highly sensitive molecular diagnostic technique, enables the detection of the JAK-2 V617F mutation in a patient's genomic DNA, aiding in the diagnosis and classification of CMPDs such as polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and primary myelofibrosis. Identifying the JAK-2 mutation by Real-Time PCR holds significant clinical relevance, helping clinicians tailor treatment strategies and monitor disease progression, ultimately improving the management of patients with these hematological disorders.
