Graphical Abstract Bone marrow haematopoiesis increases in response to diverse drivers of cardiovascular disease. Numerous experiments in mice have demonstrated that several traditional risk factors tested, including hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, and hyperglycaemia, can augment haematopoiesis (listed on the right). Other stimuli to bone marrow activation relevant to cardiovascular disease include sleep fragmentation and psychosocial stress. The validation in humans of these observations in mice has lagged behind. The new findings from PESA help to close this gap by showing that the components of the metabolic syndrome listed on the left can increase glucose analogue FDG uptake in bone marrow as determined by positron emission tomographic imaging. These observations on chronic risk factors, in an apparently well population, complement observations in humans undergoing acute coronary syndrome that show increased FDG uptake in both the bone marrow and the spleen. The experimental and human observations together provide strong support for the concept that bone marrow activation and increased haematopoiesis can contribute to the development of atherosclerosis.
