Clonal hematopoiesis, aging and Alzheimer's disease

Unexpectedly, new data show that clonal hematopoiesis is associated with protection from Alzheimer's disease; it is imperative that future studies unravel the complex tissue-disease contexts in which clonal hematopoiesis arises and contributes to aging-associated diseases.
