Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is an entity hallmarked by skewed hematopoiesis with persistent overrepresentation of cells from a common stem/progenitor lineage harboring single-nucleotide variants and/or insertions/deletions. CH is a common and age-related phenomenon that is associated with an increased risk of hematological malignancies, cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. While CH is a term of the hematological aspect, there exists a complex interaction with other organ systems, especially the cardiovascular system. The strongest factor in the development of CH is aging, however, other multiple factors also affect the development of CH including lifestyle-related factors and co-morbid diseases. In recent years, germline genetic factors have been linked to CH risk. In this review, we synthesize what is currently known about how genetic variation affects the risk of CH, how this genetic architecture intersects with myeloid neoplasms, and future prospects for CH.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Hematology aims to present subjects of current importance in clinical hematology, including related areas of oncology, hematopathology, and blood banking. The journal''s unique issue structure allows for a multi-faceted overview of a single topic via a curated selection of review articles, while also offering a variety of articles that present dynamic and front-line material immediately influencing the field. Seminars in Hematology is devoted to making the important and current work accessible, comprehensible, and valuable to the practicing physician, young investigator, clinical practitioners, and internists/paediatricians with strong interests in blood diseases. Seminars in Hematology publishes original research, reviews, short communications and mini- reviews.
