Protein Kinase B (c-Akt), Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase, and STAT5
Are Activated by Erythropoietin (EPO) in HCD57 Erythroid Cells But
Are Constitutively Active in an EPO-Independent,

We found that erythropoietin (EPO) and stem cell factor (SCF)
activated protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) in EPO-dependent HCD57 erythroid
cells. To better understand signals controlling proliferation and
viability, erythroid cells that resist apoptosis in the absence of EPO
were subcloned and characterized (HCD57-SREI cells). Constitutive activations of PKB/Akt, STAT5a, and STAT5b were noted in these EPO-independent cells. PI3-kinase activity was an upstream activator of
PKB/Akt because the PI3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 blocked
both constitutive PKB/Akt and factor-dependent PKB/Akt activity. The LY294002 study showed that proliferation and viability of both HCD57-SREI and HCD57 cells correlated with the activity of PKB/Akt; however, PKB/Akt activity alone did not protect these cells from apoptosis. Treatment of HCD57 cells with SCF also activated PKB/Akt, but did not protect from apoptosis. This result suggested that PKB/PI3-kinase activity is necessary but not sufficient to promote viability and/or proliferation. Constitutive STAT5 activity, activated through an unknown pathway not including JAK2 or EPOR, may act in
concert with the constitutive PI3-kinase/PKB/Akt pathway to protect the
EPO-independent HCD57-SREI cells from apoptosis and promote limited proliferation.
