A 31-year-old woman (patient 5) with a 25-year history of thrombocytosis was referred to our hospital (Fig. 1 a). Her hemoglobin level was normal. Her father (patient 3) also showed mild thrombocytosis but had high-hemoglobin levels with normal to low erythropoietin levels. His platelets had been persistently high, and his hemoglobin levels fluctuated around 16.5 g/dl until he was 56. However, since the age of 59, his hemoglobin levels have been apparently high (> 18 g/dl) while platelet counts have been gradually decreasing (Fig. 1 b). His hematocrit levels were also high (53.2%), and mean corpuscular volume was within normal range (95 fl). He had mild splenomegaly. The differential count of his white blood cells was within normal range (Band neutrophils, 2.5%; Segmented neutrophils, 54.5%; Lymphocytes, 25.5%; Monocytes, 4%; Eosinophils, 3%; Basophils, 1%). His erythropoietin level was 3.0–18.4 mIU/ml (normal range, 9.1–32.8). Bone marrow biopsy of patient 3 performed at the age of 62 showed hypercellularity with panmyelosis and loose network of reticulin in perivascular areas (Fig. 1 c–d). The cytogenetics of bone marrow was normal (46, XY [20]). These results suggest that patient 3 showed ET-like phenotype at first but now meets the criteria for PV. Some family members of patients 3 and 5, including a 0-year-old infant, also showed marked thrombocytosis (Fig. 1 a), which raised the possibility of familial MPN. Using targeted DNA sequencing in neutrophils, we explored 67 genes that are implicated in myeloid malignancies for patients 3 and 5 [7] and found heterozygous JAK2 R867Q mutations in both cases. We also found a stopgain mutation of TET2 S271X with an allele frequency of 5% in patient 3 and no relevant somatic mutations in patient 5. Next, we performed Sanger sequencing using neutrophils (from patients 1 to 7) and buccal swabs (from patients 1 to 8) in the present family members. All affected members (patients 3, 5, 6, and 8) had the heterozygous JAK2 R867Q mutations in their
