Few studies have investigated immune cell ontogeny throughout the neonatal and early paediatric period, where there is often increased vulnerability to infections. Here, we evaluated the dynamics of two critical T cell populations, regulatory (Treg) cells and Th17 cells, over the first 36 weeks of human life. Firstly, we observed distinct CD4+ T cells phenotypes between cord blood and peripheral blood, collected within 12 hours of birth, showing that cord blood is not a surrogate for newborn blood. Secondly, both Treg and Th17 cells expanded in a synchronous fashion over 36 weeks of life. However, comparing infants exposed to HIV in utero, but remaining uninfected (iHEU), with HIV-unexposed uninfected control infants (iHUU), there was a lower frequency of peripheral blood Treg cells at birth, resulting in a delayed expansion, and then declining again at 36 weeks. Focusing on birth events, we found that Treg cells co-expressing CCR4 and α4β7 inversely correlated with plasma concentrations of CCL17 (the ligand for CCR4) and intestinal fatty acid binding protein (iFABP), IL-7 and CCL20. This was in contrast to Th17 cells, which showed a positive association with these plasma analytes. Thus, despite the stereotypic expansion of both cell subsets over the first few months of life, there was a disruption in the balance of Th17 to Treg cells at birth likely being a result of gut damage and homing of newborn Treg cells from the blood circulation to the gut.
