A inositide-dependent signaling exists in the nucleus. In this review we focused to the nuclear PI-PLC signaling activity, its downstream effects and its role in haematological malignancies. PI-PLC β1 is involved in the physiological control of the cell cycle and by acting on the Cylin D3 promoter plays a crucial role in the process of C2C12 myoblast differentiation. In hematological malignancies recent studies showed that PI-PLC β1 mono-allelic deletion correlates with a higher risk of AML evolution. Moreover it has been shown that PI-PLC β1 promoter is hypermethylated in high-risk MDS patients and that the amount of PI-PLC β1 mRNA could predict the clinical response to azacitidine, a well known demethylating drug. All in all the data reviewed here pave the way to a new prognostic and therapeutic strategy in some haematological malignancies.
