These results suggest that inherited mutations in a component of the SRP have a role in the pathophysiology of AA/MDS, identifying a third pathway for developing these disorders alongside transcription factor and telomerase mutations. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Molecular and cellular studies now suggest that accelerated apoptosis of neutrophil precursors in the bone marrow is the common pathophysiologic mechanism. [link.springer.com]
