The JAK/STAT cascade is dysregulated in nearly all myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), however, currently available inhibitors that target the JAK/STAT pathway are not able to eradicate disease-initiating malignant hematopoietic stem cells. The objective of our reserch is to determine the role of newly identified Abelson interactor 1 (Abi-1)-driven immunomodulatory mechanisms responsible for malignant transformation of hematopoietic stem cells and initiation of MPN. Our ultimate goal is to develop new therapeutic strategies to eradicate disease initiating MPN stem cells.
