Stat-1 Is Not Essential for Inhibition of B Lymphopoiesis by Type I IFNs1

Type I IFNs, IFN-{alpha}, -ß, and -{omega}, are cytokine family members with multiple immune response roles, including the promotion of cell growth and differentiation. Conversely, the type I IFNs are potent inhibitors of IL-7-dependent growth of early B lineage progenitors, effectively aborting further B lineage differentiation at the pro-B cell stage. Type I IFNs {alpha} and ß function via receptor-mediated activation of a Jak/Stat signaling pathway in which Stat-1 is functionally important, because many IFN-induced responses are abrogated in Stat-1-deficient mice. To the contrary, we show here that the inhibition of IL-7-dependent B lymphopoiesis by IFN-{alpha}ß is unaffected in Stat-1-deficient mice. The present data indicate that the type I IFNs can activate an alternative signaling pathway in which neither Stat-1 nor phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase are essential components.
