Abstrakt: Centrioles define centrosome structure and function. Deregulation of centriole numbers can cause developmental defects and cancer. The p53 tumor suppressor limits the growth of cells lacking or harboring additional centrosomes and can be engaged by the "mitotic surveillance" or the "PIDDosome pathway", respectively. Here, we show that early B cell progenitors frequently present extra centrioles, ensuing their high proliferative activity and related DNA damage. Extra centrioles are efficiently cleared during B cell maturation. In contrast, centriole loss upon Polo-like kinase 4 (Plk4) deletion causes apoptosis and arrests B cell development. This defect can be rescued by co-deletion of Usp28, a critical component of the mitotic surveillance pathway, that restores cell survival and maturation. Centriole-deficient mature B cells are proliferation competent and mount a humoral immune response. Our findings imply that progenitor B cells are intolerant to centriole loss but permissive to centriole amplification, a feature potentially facilitating their malignant transformation. Centrioles organize chromosome segregation, migration, and the immune synapse. Here, Schapfl et al. show that B cell progenitors tolerate centriole overamplification, but not loss, while mature B cells can mount a humoral immune response in their absence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
