Low-hypodiploid acute lymphoblastic leukemia (LH-ALL) in both children and adults is characterized by biallelic TP53 alterations in virtually all cases. However, in contrast to a common germline origin of the TP53 mutations in pediatric cases, those in adult cases are mostly somatic and are derived from age-related clonal hematopoiesis (ARCH), highlighting the role of TP53-mutant ARCH in the development not only of myeloid leukemogenesis but also of LH-ALL in aged populations.

儿童和成人中的低倍体急性淋巴细胞白血病(LH-ALL)几乎所有病例均存在双等位基因 TP53 改变。然而,与儿科病例中 TP53 突变的常见种系起源不同,成人病例中的 TP53 突变大多是体细胞的,源自与年龄相关的克隆性造血(ARCH),这突出了 TP53 突变型 ARCH 在不仅髓系白血病发生发展中而且在老年人群 LH-ALL 发生发展中的作用。见 Kim 等人的相关文章,第 134 页(4)。
