Researchers found a genetic variant that appears to protect against the development of CHIP, a phenomenon that can lead to certain blood cancers

A genome-wide association study identifies a genetic variant that reduces the risk of leukemia

Somatic mutations that increase the fitness of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) drive their expansion in clonal hematopoiesis (CH) and predispose individuals to blood cancers. Population variation in t...

Nature Communications - Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) differentiate into multiple lineages, with such capacity impacted by aging. Here the authors identify Kitlo HSCs as a functionally distinct...
