Analysis of TET2 mutations in paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH)

Abstract Background Large clonal populations of cells bearing PIG-A mutations are the sine qua non of PNH, but the PIG-A mutation itself is insufficient for clonal expansion. The association between PNH and aplastic anemia supports the immune escape model, but not all PNH patients demonstrate a hist...
