Chronic inflammation is frequently observed in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Here the authors observe elevated levels of IL-1α and IL-1β in MPN patients and show that IL-1 contributes to clonal expansion and bone marrow fibrosis in a mouse model of MPN, proposing targeting of IL1R1 as therapeutic intervention.
