2. This syndrome is caused by germline gain-of –function mutation in genes encoding components
of Ras/MAPK signalling pathway.
3. Mutations in the oncogene PTPN11 are the most frequent in this syndrome ( 50% of NS cases) .
5. Somatic PTPN11 mutations have been identified in 35% of the de novo non-syndromic JMML (Sporatic
JMML).
The character of JMML
1. PTPN11 mutation in NS and JMML indicated high phosphatase activity and their
hematopoietic cells indicated high sensitivity to GM-CSF.
2. Syndromic and non-syndromic JMML patients are resistant to any chemotherapy, the
only treatment choice is allo-BMT with high relapse rate.
Why do we target PTPN11 mutations?
Shp2 inhibitor:
Normal development SHP099 and TNO155
Multiple signalling pathways are possibly
involved in transformation of NS to JMML
How to define the pathogenesis of NS transformation to
JMML ?
Why iPS?
