Clinical Information
Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test

CSF3R encodes the receptor for colony-stimulating factor 3, a cytokine that controls the production, differentiation, and function of granulocytes. Somatic CSF3R mutations were recently described in 50% to 80% of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) patients. Their association with atypical chronic myelogenous leukemia (aCML) remains controversial. They have also been reported as somatic events in severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) patients.

 

There are 2 types of CSF3R mutations: extracellular domain/membrane proximal point mutations (most commonly p.T618I) and cytoplasmic tail truncation mutations. They demonstrated sensitivity to JAK kinase inhibitors and Src kinase inhibitors, respectively, in in vitro assays. In CNL, the most common mutation is p.T618I, although cytoplasmic truncation mutation can also occur. Somatic cytoplasmic truncation mutations have been reported in approximately 30% of SCN patients and 80% of SCN patients with leukemic transformation, who are often on granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (GCSF) therapy. However, their role in leukemic transformation is uncertain.

Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

An interpretive report will be provided

Interpretation
Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results

The results will be given as positive or negative for CSF3R mutation and, if positive, the mutation will be described.

Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances

The assay is performed using Sanger sequencing, which has a sensitivity of 20%. This means that 20% or more of the DNA in the sample must be mutated to be detected.

 

A positive result can be seen in chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL). However, it is not specific for this neoplasm and clinicopathologic correlation is necessary in all cases.

 

A negative result does not exclude the presence of a CNL, other myeloproliferative neoplasms, or other hematologic or nonhematologic neoplasms.

Method Description
Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference

Exons 14 and 17 of CSF3R are amplified from the extracted DNA by PCR, followed by Sanger sequencing and capillary electrophoresis analysis. Review of the sequence data is performed using a combination of automated calls and manual inspection.(Unpublished Mayo method)
