Researchers Identify New Cardiovascular Risk Factor and Suggest Treatment


Clonal hematopoiesis describes a condition where specific blood-forming stem cells in the bone marrow or bloodstream acquire genetic mutations, leading to their excessive proliferation. These mutations, occurring in somatic cells (non-reproductive cells), can increase the risk of blood cancers and other disorders. Often, clonal hematopoiesis is discovered incidentally in older adults and may not cause immediate issues. However, recent research has revealed a new dimension to this condition: its link to increased cardiovascular risk.

A study published in *Nature Medicine* in August 2024 has identified clonal hematopoiesis as a novel risk factor for atherosclerosis, a condition characterized by plaque buildup in the arteries. This discovery adds to the list of well-known cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, smoking, and physical inactivity. The study highlights that individuals with clonal hematopoiesis are at a higher risk for developing atherosclerosis, further emphasizing the need to recognize this condition as a significant cardiovascular risk factor.
