Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis, often caused by mutations in DNMT3A and TET2, is associated with blood cancer and coronary artery disease. Here, the authors conduct an epigenome-wide association study, finding that clonal hematopoiesis caused by DNMT3A vs. TET2 mutations has directionally opposing changes in DNA methylation profiles, with both promoting stem cell self-renewal.
