Abstract

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are hematological malignancies caused by somatic mutations originating from a single hematopoietic stem cell (HSC). In this issue of Cell Stem Cell,Van Egeren et al. (2021) used whole-genome sequencing of hematopoietic colonies to reconstruct the clonal history and time of acquisition of the disease-initiating gene mutation.
