Decoding Clonal Hematopoiesis: Emerging Themes and Novel Mechanistic Insights
24 Jul 2024
Abstract excerpt
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), the relative expansion of mutant clones, is derived from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with acquired somatic or cytogenetic alterations that improve cellular fitness. Individuals with CH have a higher risk for hematological and non-hematological diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, and have an overall higher mortality rate.
