Hematopoiesis by iPSC-derived hematopoietic stem cells of aplastic anemia that escape cytotoxic T-cell attack
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) that lack HLA-class I alleles as a result of copy-number neutral loss of heterozygosity of the short arm of chromosome 6 (6pLOH) or HLA allelic mutations often constitute hematopoiesis in patients with acquired aplastic anemia (AA), but the precise mechanisms underlying clonal hematopoiesis induced by these HLA-lacking (HLA2) HSCs remain unknown. To address this issue, we ... Read more
