After one month of E-cigarette exposure, the relative frequency of JAK2 V617F cells in the peripheral blood was almost significantly more than the air exposed group ( p = 0.058) ( Figure 6 B).
After one month of E-cigarette exposure, the relative frequency of JAK2 V617F cells in the peripheral blood was almost significantly more than the air exposed group ( p = 0.058) ( Figure 6 B).
In addition, there was a trend toward decreased long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSCs), defined as (LKS-SLAM; LKS-CD48 − CD150 + ), but failed to reach significance ( p = 0.14) ( Figure 3 C).
Given that we did not observe a highly significant decline in the LT-HSC population in the E-cigarette exposure group, it is most likely that the subtle difference was not sufficient to induce a difference in reconstitution capacity.
