Class switch recombination (CSR) generates isotype-switched antibodies with distinct effector functions. B cells express phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and multiple isoforms of class IA phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) catalytic subunits, including p110α and p110δ, whose roles in CSR remain unknown or controversial. Here, we demonstrate a direct effect of PTEN on CSR signaling by acute deletion of Pten specifically in mature B cells, thereby excluding the developmental impact of Pten deletion. We show that mature B cell-specific PTEN overexpression enhances CSR. More importantly, we establish a critical role of p110α in CSR. Furthermore, we identify a cooperative role of p110α and p110δ in suppressing CSR. Mechanistically, dysregulation of p110α or PTEN reversely affects activation-induced deaminase expression via modulating AKT activity. Thus, our study reveals that a signaling balance between PTEN and PI3K isoforms is essential to maintain normal CSR.
