NIH Rare Diseases: Myelofibrosis is a disorder of the bone marrow, in which the marrow is replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue. Scarring of the bone marrow causes anemia, which can lead to fatigue and weakness, as well as pooling of the blood in abnormal sites like the liver and spleen, causing these organs to swell. Although myelofibrosis can occur at any age, it typically develops after the age of 50. In most cases, myelofibrosis gets progressively worse. Treatment is aimed at relieving signs and symptoms and may include medications, blood transfusions, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. 30
MalaCards: Myelofibrosis, also known as primary myelofibrosis, is related to essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera. An important gene associated with Myelofibrosis is JAK2 (Janus kinase 2), and among its related pathways are Actin-Based Motility by Rho Family GTPases and Ras Pathway. The drug busulfan and the compounds cyclophosphamide and threonine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include the bone marrow which results_in bone marrow being replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue, bone marrow and whole blood, and related mouse phenotypes are respiratory system and craniofacial. Disease Ontology: A myeloma that is located in the bone marrow which results in bone marrow being replaced by fibrous (scar) tissue.6 Genetics Home Reference: Primary myelofibrosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of scar tissue (fibrosis) in the bone marrow, the tissue that produces blood cells. Because of the fibrosis, the bone marrow is unable to make enough normal blood cells. The shortage of blood cells causes many of the signs and symptoms of primary myelofibrosis.17 Wikipedia: Myelofibrosis, also known as myeloid metaplasia, chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis, osteomyelofibrosis...44 more...
