Abstract

Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is described as the outsized contribution of expanded clones of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to blood cell production. The prevalence of CH increases dramatically with age. CH can be caused by somatic mutations in individual genes or by gains and/or losses of larger chromosomal segments. CH is a premalignant state; the somatic mutations detected in CH are the initiating mutations for hematologic malignancies, and CH is a strong predictor of the development of blood cancers. Moreover, CH is associated with nonmalignant disorders and increased overall mortality. The somatic mutations that drive clonal expansion of HSPCs can alter the function of terminally differentiated blood cells, including the release of elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines may then contribute to a broad range of inflammatory disorders that increase in prevalence with age. Specific somatic mutations in the peripheral blood in coordination with blood count parameters can powerfully predict the development of hematologic malignancies and overall mortality in CH. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of CH nosology and origins. We provide an overview of available tools for risk stratification and discuss management strategies for patients with CH presenting to hematology clinics.

  • The impact of somatic mutations on the aging brain is not fixed but is dynamically shaped by the specific driver gene, the local neuroinflammatory environment, and the integrity of the neurovascular unit.

    “These findings suggest that the impact of somatic mutations on the aging brain is not fixed but is instead dynamically shaped by the specific driver gene, the local neuroinflammatory environment, and the integrity of the neurovascular unit [42].”

    From Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential as an Emerging Interdisciplinary Risk Factor in Alzheimer’s Disease: Current Evidence and Future Directions (2026) · cites this paper as [42]

    Section 5.4 (Alzheimer’s Dementia; page unavailable) links CHIP to a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s dementia and suggests a possible role for altered activity of brain-resident microglial-like cells. Sections 3.1–3.2 and 7 describe genotype- and context-dependent effects of clonal hematopoiesis more broadly. The paper does not establish that its effects on the aging brain are shaped by the local neuroinflammatory environment or the integrity of the neurovascular unit. (LLM, conf=0.84)

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.
