RESUMEN

Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) can be caused by either single gene mutations (eg point mutations in JAK2 causing CHIP) or mosaic chromosomal alterations (e.g., loss of heterozygosity at chromosome 9p). CH is associated with a significantly increased risk of hematologic malignancies. However, the absolute rate of transformation on an annualized basis is low. Improved prognostication of transformation risk is urgently needed for routine clinical practice. We hypothesized that the co-occurrence of CHIP and mCAs at the same locus (e.g., transforming a heterozygous JAK2 CHIP mutation into a homozygous mutation through concomitant loss of heterozygosity at chromosome 9) might have important prognostic implications for malignancy transformation risk. We tested this hypothesis using our discovery cohort, the UK Biobank (n = 451,180), and subsequently validated it in the BioVU cohort (n = 91,335). We find that individuals with a concurrent somatic mutation and mCA were at significantly increased risk of hematologic malignancy (for example, In BioVU cohort incidence of hematologic malignancies is higher in individuals with co-occurring JAK2 V617F and 9p CN-LOH; HR = 54.76, 95% CI = 33.92-88.41, P < 0.001 vs. JAK2 V617F alone; HR = 44.05, 95% CI = 35.06-55.35, P < 0.001). Currently, the 'zygosity' of the CHIP mutation is not routinely reported in clinical assays or considered in prognosticating CHIP transformation risk. Based on these observations, we propose that clinical reports should include 'zygosity' status of CHIP mutations and that future prognostication systems should take mutation 'zygosity' into account.

RESUMEN

Rationale: Constantly exposed to the external environment and mutagens such as tobacco smoke, human lungs have one of the highest somatic mutation rates among all human organs. However, the relationship of these mutations to lung disease and function is not known. Objectives: To identify the prevalence and significance of clonal somatic mutations in chronic lung diseases. Methods: We analyzed the clonal somatic mutations from 1,251 samples of normal and diseased noncancerous lung tissue RNA sequencing with paired whole-genome sequencing from the Lung Tissue Research Consortium. We examined the associations of somatic mutations with lung function, disease status, and computationally deconvoluted cell types in two of the most common diseases represented in our dataset, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD; 29%) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF; 13%). Measurements and Main Results: Clonal somatic mutational burden was associated with reduced lung function in both COPD and IPF. We identified an increased prevalence of clonal somatic mutations in individuals with IPF compared with normal control subjects and individuals with COPD independent of age and smoking status. IPF clonal somatic mutations were enriched in disease-related and airway epithelial-expressed genes such as MUC5B in IPF. Patients who were MUC5B risk variant carriers had increased odds of developing somatic mutations of MUC5B that were explained by increased expression of MUC5B. Conclusions: Our identification of an increased prevalence of clonal somatic mutation in diseased lung that correlates with airway epithelial gene expression and disease severity highlights for the first time the role of somatic mutational processes in lung disease genetics.
