HEMATOPOIESIS

Overexpression of suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 impairs pre-T-cell receptor-induced proliferation but not differentiation of immature thymocytes

Cytokines play an essential role during early T-cell development. However, the mechanisms controlling cytokine signaling in developing thymocytes have not been elucidated. Cytokine receptor signaling can be modulated by suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS-1), which acts as a negative regulator of Janus kinases. SOCS-1 is normally expressed throughout thymocyte development; however, retroviral-mediated overexpression of SOCS-1 in fetal liver-derived hematopoietic progenitors prevented their progression beyond the earliest stage of T-cell development. Further analysis revealed that SOCS-1 expression is transiently suppressed following pre-T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling. Moreover, constitutive expression of SOCS-1 abrogated pre-TCR- mediated expansion of immature thymocytes but did not interfere with differentiation. These findings reveal that SOCS-1 serves to regulate cytokine signaling at critical checkpoints during early T-cell development.
