Genome-wide analyses of 200,453 individuals yield new insights into the causes and consequences of clonal hematopoiesis
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), the clonal expansion of a blood stem cell and its progeny driven by somatic driver mutations, affects over a third of people, yet remains poorly understood. Here we analyze genetic data from 200,453 UK Biobank participants to map the landscape of inherited predisposition to CH, increasing the number of germline associations with CH in European-ancestry populations from 4 to 14. Genes at new loci implicate DNA damage repair ( PARP1 , ATM , CHEK2 ), hematopoietic stem cell migration/homing ( CD164 ) and myeloid oncogenesis ( SETBP1 ). Several associations were CH-subtype-specific including variants at TCL1A and CD164 that had opposite associations with DNMT3A - versus TET2 -mutant CH, the two most common CH subtypes, proposing key roles for these two loci in CH development. Mendelian randomization analyses showed that smoking and longer leukocyte telomere length are causal risk factors for CH and that genetic predisposition to CH increases risks of myeloproliferative neoplasia, nonhematological malignancies, atrial fibrillation and blood epigenetic ageing.

In several cohorts, the variant allele frequencies of clonal hematopoiesis clones are typically small and do not expand significantly without additional transforming events.
“It has been observed in several cohorts that the VAFs of CH clones are typically small and do not expand significantly without additional transforming events [20,88].”

The Methods (Genome-wide association analyses; page unavailable) report 6,154 people with small CH clones (VAF < 0.1) and 4,049 with large clones, supporting the claim that small clones were more common in the analyzed sample. The paper does not establish that clones generally fail to expand without additional transforming events; its discussion instead describes factors associated with faster expansion. The cited evidence also does not establish this pattern across several cohorts. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
