Abstract

Many cytokines and chemokines that are important for hematopoiesis activate the PI3K signaling pathway. Because this pathway is frequently mutated and activated in cancer, PI3K inhibitors have been developed for the treatment of several malignancies, and are now being tested in the clinic in combination with chemotherapy. However, the role of PI3K in adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), particularly during hematopoietic stress, is still unclear. We previously showed that the individual PI3K catalytic isoforms P110α or P110β have dispensable roles in HSC function, suggesting redundancy between PI3K isoforms in HSCs. We now demonstrate that simultaneous deletion of P110α and P110δ in double knockout (DKO) HSCs uncovers their redundant requirement in HSC cycling after 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) chemotherapy administration. In contrast, DKO HSCs are still able to exit quiescence in response to other stress stimuli, such as LPS. We found that DKO HSCs and progenitors have impaired sensing of inflammatory signals ex vivo, and that levels of IL1-β and MIG are higher in the bone marrow after LPS than after 5-FU administration. Furthermore, exogenous in vivo administration of IL1-β can induce cell cycle entry of DKO HSCs. Our findings have important clinical implications for the use of PI3K inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy.

  • Previous reports indicate that acute IL-1 administration in vivo triggers cell cycle activity in the SLAM compartment.

    “Indeed, previous reports indicate that acute IL-1 administration in vivo triggers cell cycle activity in the SLAM compartment (Hemmati et al., 2019; Pietras et al., 2016; Weisser et al., 2016)”

    From PU.1 enforces quiescence and limits hematopoietic stem cell expansion during inflammatory stress (2021) · cites this paper as Hemmati et al., 2019

    The available indexed passages contain the article title, author information, and a References footer, but no substantive discussion of IL-1 or SLAM cells. Searches for acute IL-1 administration, SLAM cell cycling, “IL-1,” and “SLAM” found no passage that could establish the claim; the available copy appears to omit the decisive article text. (LLM, conf=0.72)

  • IL-1β promotes hematopoietic regeneration and is capable of briefly driving HSPC into the cell cycle, in large part via activation of the PI3K-AKT pathway.

    From PU.1 is required to restrain myelopoiesis during chronic inflammatory stress (2023) · cites this paper as Hemmati et al., 2019

    The available indexed passages contain the article title, author affiliations, and publication details, but no findings about IL-1β. Searches for hematopoietic regeneration, HSPC cell-cycle entry, and PI3K-AKT activation returned no relevant passage, so the claim cannot be checked against our copy. (LLM, conf=0.68)

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.
