Class I PI3K catalyzes formation of 3-poly-phosphoinositides. The family is divided into IA isoforms, activated by Tyr kinases and the IB isoform (PI3Kgamma), activated by G protein-coupled receptors. Mutations that affect PI3K are implicated in chronic inflammation, although the differential contribution of each isoform to pathology has not been elucidated. Enhanced activation of class IA-PI3K in T cells extends CD4+ memory cell survival, triggering an invasive lymphoproliferative disorder and systemic lupus. As both IA- and IB-PI3K isoforms regulate T cell activation, and activated pathogenic CD4+ memory cells are involved in triggering systemic lupus, we examined whether deletion of IB could reduce the pathological consequences of increased IA-PI3K activity. IB-PI3Kgamma deficiency did not abolish invasion or lymphoproliferation, but reduced CD4+ memory cell survival, autoantibody production, glomerulonephritis, and systemic lupus. Deletion of the IB-PI3Kgamma isoform thus decreased survival of pathogenic CD4+ memory cells, selectively inhibiting systemic lupus development. These results validate the PI3Kgamma isoform as a target for systemic lupus erythematosus treatment.

Class IB-Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase (PI3K) Deficiency Ameliorates IA-PI3K-Induced Systemic Lupus but Not T Cell Invasion
