About MPN PCR Panel Kit

The TRUPCR® MPN PCR Panel Kit is a comprehensive real-time PCR assay designed for the qualitative detection of key genetic mutations associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). This CE-IVD certified kit enables simultaneous analysis of JAK2-V617F, CALR (Type 1 & 2), MPL (W515K, W515L, W515A, S505N) mutations, and BCR-ABL1 (p210 and p190) fusion transcripts from peripheral blood or bone marrow samples.

The assay is optimized for high sensitivity—detecting BCR-ABL1 transcripts down to 10 copies and somatic mutations down to 1% mutant allele frequency in a background of wild-type DNA. Both RNA and DNA inputs are required, and reagents for cDNA synthesis are included.

This panel covers both Philadelphia-positive (CML) and Philadelphia-negative MPNs (e.g., polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, and primary myelofibrosis), making it a powerful tool for differential diagnosis, risk stratification, and treatment planning.

Qualitative PCR Detection of Key Mutations in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs)

The TRUPCR® MPN PCR Panel Kit is a real-time PCR-based in vitro diagnostic assay designed for the qualitative detection of key genetic alterations associated with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), including the JAK2-V617F, CALR (Type 1 & 2), MPL (W515K/L/A and S505N), and BCR-ABL1 (p210/p190) fusion transcripts. This multi-analyte panel combines both RNA- and DNA-based mutation analysis, utilizing specific primers and hydrolysis probes to deliver accurate and sensitive detection from peripheral blood or bone marrow samples.

The assay requires extraction of both RNA and DNA, with provided reagents for cDNA synthesis to detect RNA-based translocations (BCR-ABL1). The kit streamlines diagnostic workflows for MPN screening by combining the most clinically relevant biomarkers in a single format.

Molecular Background

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by overproduction of one or more blood cell lines. They are divided into:

  • Philadelphia-positive (CML) — defined by BCR-ABL1 fusion
  • Philadelphia-negative MPNs — including Polycythemia Vera, Essential Thrombocythemia, and Primary Myelofibrosis, often associated with mutations in JAK2, CALR, and MPL genes.
  • JAK2 V617F is a somatic mutation seen in ~95% of PV and ~50–60% of ET and PMF.
  • CALR mutations, especially in exon 9, are highly recurrent in JAK2-negative MPNs.
  • MPL W515 mutations are common in ET and PMF and promote megakaryocyte proliferation.
  • BCR-ABL1, most often associated with CML, is also present in rare AML or ALL subtypes.

These mutations contribute to pathogenesis through constitutive activation of intracellular signaling, particularly JAK-STAT pathways.

Assay Performance & Utility

The TRUPCR® MPN PCR Panel Kit enables simultaneous analysis of key diagnostic and prognostic mutations with high sensitivity:
