Monday, November 6, 2023

Clonal hematopoiesis is a condition that arises when a single clonal lineage of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) expands and becomes the source of a substantial proportion of mature blood cells.

Key Points: 
  • Clonal hematopoiesis is a condition that arises when a single clonal lineage of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) expands and becomes the source of a substantial proportion of mature blood cells.
  • The study reaffirmed that clonal hematopoiesis is very common in the elderly, approaching 50% in people over 80 years old.
  • Clonal hematopoiesis has many of the hallmarks of a premalignant expansion of cell clones with a potential to become cancerous.
  • Overall, the study has provided substantial insights into the genetics and epidemiology of clonal hematopoiesis.
