Exit from dormancy provokes DNA-damage-induced attrition in haematopoietic stem cells

TL;DR: This work shows in mice that DNA damage is a direct consequence of inducing HSCs to exit their homeostatic quiescent state in response to conditions that model physiological stress, such as infection or chronic blood loss, and provides a mechanistic explanation for the universal accumulation of DNA damage in H SCs during ageing and the accelerated failure of the haematopoietic system in Fanconi anaemia patients.
