Identified: Mutations in blood cells that accelerate heart failure progression

by Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (F.S.P.)  Aging is associated with a higher frequency of somatic mutations that drive clonal hematopoiesis, particularly mutations in DNMT3A and TET2, which, in the presence of HF with reduced LVEF, result in accelerated progression of the disease in terms of HF-related mortality and acute HF decompensations leading...
