520 At the pro-B to pre-B cell transition, signals through the
pre-B cell antigen receptor and interleukin 7 receptor
coordinate clonal expansion of cells bearing a
successfully rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain.
Several studies have indicated that PI3K-Akt signaling
downstream of these receptors enhances proliferation and
that this is associated with upregulation of cyclin D3
protein and repression of p27. However, this model has not
been rigorously examined in vivo in the context of B
lymphopoiesis. Herein, we demonstrate differential usage
of cyclin D2 and cyclin D3 in B cell progenitors that is
not apparent in fibroblasts. Furthermore, proliferation is
normal in pro-B and pre-B cells from p85alpha-/- mice and
decreased in PtenloxP/loxPCD19Cre+/- mice. Subsequent
biochemical analyses confirmed that inhibiting PI3K led to
a decrease in soluble cyclin D3 and an increase in p27.
However, that portion of each of these molecules
associated with the cyclin D3 binding partner CDK4 or with
the target of this holoenzyme complex, retinoblastoma
protein (Rb), did not change with PI3K inhibition. In
addition, we detected a substantial and PI3K-independent
fraction of cyclin D3 associated with the nuclear matrix.
None of these fractions of cyclin D3 overlapped with
nuclear cyclin D2. These data indicate that there are at
least three distinct subnuclear compartments of cyclin D3
which are regulated by different signaling pathways and
which appear to have different functions during B
lymphopoiesis
