In vitro studies suggest that activation of class IA PI-3 kinase is necessary for normal erythroid cell development. However, when class IA PI-3 kinase deficient mice were generated by a targeted deletion of the p85 regulatory subunit, fetal erythropoiesis was reportedly unaffected. Given the discrepancies between these studies, we performed a more detailed in vivo analysis of class IA PI-3 kinase deficient embryos. Day 14.5 p85 -/- embryos are pale with a marked reduction of mature erythrocytes in their peripheral blood. Further, the absolute number and frequency of both early (BFU-E) and late erythroid progenitors (CFU-E) are reduced in p85 -/- fetal livers compared to wildtype controls, which is associated with reduced proliferation. Taken together, these data establish an important role for p85 and class IA PI-3 kinase in regulating the development of both early and late erythroid progenitors in fetal liver.
