Abstract
Myeloid malignancies, a group of hematopoietic disorders that includes acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), are caused by the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic changes in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) over time. Despite the relatively low number of genomic drivers compared with other forms of cancer, the process by which these changes shape the genomic architecture of myeloid malignancies remains elusive. Recent advancements in clonal hematopoiesis research and the use of cutting-edge single cell technologies have shed new light on the developmental process of myeloid malignancies. In this review, we delve into the intricacies of clonal evolution in myeloid malignancies and its implications for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
