Clonal hematopoiesis and preleukemia—Genetics, biology, and clinical implications

Abstract excerpt

Myeloid neoplasms including myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) originate from hematopoietic stem cells through sequential acquisition of genetic and epigenetic alterations that ultimately cause the disease-specific phenotype of impaired differentiation and increased proliferation. It has become clear that preleukemic clonal hematopoiesis (CH), characterized by an expansion of stem and...
