13 Could Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Account for the Mortality Gap in Clonal Hematopoiesis? Can we demonstrate worsened cardiovascular outcomes in CHIP? Is CHIP causal in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD)? What mechanisms could explain an increase in CVD due to CHIP?

15 Clonal Hematopoiesis and Risk of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease We used whole-exome sequencing to detect the presence of CHIP in peripheralblood cells and associated such presence with coronary heart disease using samples from four case control studies that together enrolled 4794 carriers of CHIP and 3537 controls.

21 Why does atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease associate with clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP?) Two possibilities: 1) CHIP accompanies aging, and has no causal association with cardiovascular disease 2) CHIP causes cardiovascular disease

34 Clonal hematopoiesis & atherosclerotic events Clonal hematopoiesis increases with age Those with clonal hematopoiesis have much greater risk of cardiovascular events than of developing hematologic malignancy

35 Clonal hematopoiesis & atheroslcerotic events The cardiovascular risk associated with clonal hematopoiesis is independent of and that of traditional risk factors (save for age) Mouse studies support causality of clonal hematopoiesis in ASCVD

Is CHIP causal in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD)? What mechanisms could explain an increase in CVD due to CHIP?

37 TET enzymes have demethylase activity TET1 TET2 TET3 TET catalyzed reactions are the primary mechanism of demethylation of cytosine, but the oxidized intermediates may also have decarboxylase. biological functions Ito et al., Science 2011 Figure S1. Chemistry involved in the thymine to uracil conversion in the thymidine salvage pathway and a proposed mechanism for 5mC demethylation Thymine-DNA (A) Part of the thymidine salvage pathway. Thymine (T) is converted glycosylase to 5- hydroxymethyl U (5hmU), 5-formyl U (5fU), and iso-orotate by thymine hydroxylase (THase) in three consecutive oxidation reactions, each requiring O 2,! -KG while releasing CO 2 and succinate. Iso-orotate is then converted to uracil by i so-orotate decarboxylase. (B) Proposed mechanism of oxidative DNA demethylation initiated by Tet proteins. Similar to THase, Tet proteins can potentially oxidize 5mC to produce 5- hydroxymethyl C (5hmC), 5- formyl C (5fC), and 5-carboxyl C (5caC), which then may be converted to C by a He et al., Science 2011 Fig. S14. $ %&' (!)%*!+, -!&'.
