Our investigation in UK Biobank identifies social, behavioral and clinical risk factors associated with clonal hematopoiesis and details differences in effect based on type of CH (e.g., CHIP, autosomal mCAs, mLOY and mLOX).

Our TWAS analyses in four normal and tumor #kidney transcriptomes and 48 GTEx tissues identified several important genes with relevance to #renal cell carcinoma overall and its subtypes. @Diptavo @NCIChanock.

Genomic investigation of Chernobyl #thyroid cancer cases finds cervical lymph node #metastases are more frequent in fusion versus mutation drivers, although the proportion varies by driver gene. No effect is found for radiation exposure. @NCIEpiTraining.

Online today in @Nature! We characterize age-related mosaic loss of the X chromosome (#mLOX) in 800K women, examine associations with disease risk, and identify germline variation associated with susceptibility as well as the retained X chromosome.

ArCH is a terrific new pipeline from the Bolton group for variant calling, filtering and annotation that improves the sensitivity and positive predictive value of #clonal #hematopoiesis variant detection at low allele frequencies.
