Chronic interleukin-1 exposure drives haematopoietic stem cells towards precocious myeloid differentiation at the expense of self-renewal
Open accessAbstract
Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) maintain lifelong blood production and increase blood cell numbers in response to chronic and acute injury. However, the mechanism(s) by which inflammatory insults are communicated to HSCs and their consequences for HSC activity remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that interleukin-1 (IL-1), which functions as a key pro-inflammatory 'emergency' signal, directly accelerates cell division and myeloid differentiation of HSCs through precocious activation of a PU.1-dependent gene program. Although this effect is essential for rapid myeloid recovery following acute injury to the bone marrow, chronic IL-1 exposure restricts HSC lineage output, severely erodes HSC self-renewal capacity, and primes IL-1-exposed HSCs to fail massive replicative challenges such as transplantation. Importantly, these damaging effects are transient and fully reversible on IL-1 withdrawal. Our results identify a critical regulatory circuit that tailors HSC responses to acute needs, and is likely to underlie deregulated blood homeostasis in chronic inflammation conditions.

IL-1β rapidly and robustly induces PU.1 expression in HSC and MPP populations, including MPPGM.
“We found that IL-1β rapidly and robustly induces PU.1 expression in HSC and MPP populations (Pietras et al., 2016), including MPPGM.”
From PU.1 is required to restrain myelopoiesis during chronic inflammatory stress (2023) · cites this paper as Pietras et al., 2016
In Results, ‘Precocious activation of a PU.1 molecular circuit,’ the paper reports strong, rapid PU.1 induction in IL-1β-treated HSCs, but limited or absent activation in treated MPPs and GMPs. That directly conflicts with the citation’s attribution of robust induction across HSC and MPP populations. The phrase ‘including MPPGM’ follows the citation and appears to describe the citing authors’ own finding. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredChronic pro-inflammatory signaling due to chronic infections or repetitive sterile inflammation is detrimental to HSPC self-renewal, promoting loss of quiescence and differentiation.
“Chronic pro-inflammatory signaling due to chronic infections or repetitive sterile inflammation, however, has been shown to be detrimental to HSPC self-renewal, promoting loss of quiescence and differentiation [61–65].”
From Clonal hematopoiesis and inflammation – the perpetual cycle (2023) · cites this paper as [62]
The Results sections on haematopoietic remodelling and chronic IL-1 exposure report increased HSC division, myeloid-biased differentiation, and impaired self-renewal after repeated IL-1 treatment in mice. The paper does not establish those combined effects specifically in chronic infection or repetitive sterile inflammation, so the claim extends beyond the condition tested. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIL-1 can stimulate HSC proliferation, driving their myeloid differentiation at the expense of self-renewal, thus eroding their repopulating capacity.

The Results sections on IL-1-accelerated differentiation and chronic exposure report faster HSC division, increased myeloid differentiation, and impaired self-renewal and transplantation capacity. But the claim omits the crucial duration qualifier: the Results section on acute stimulation says acute IL-1 exposure promotes myeloid recovery without impairing HSC self-renewal. Page numbers were not provided in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

From PU.1 enforces quiescence and limits hematopoietic stem cell expansion during inflammatory stress (2021) · cites this paper as Pietras et al., 2016
The Discussion (page unavailable) reports that the HSC pool remains intact after chronic IL-1 exposure and suggests that a quiescent HSC subset may replenish responsive cells. That provides a basis for the citing authors’ inference, but the paper does not identify a braking mechanism limiting cell-cycle entry; the Results instead report increased HSC division after IL-1 treatment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
