Very low birth weight preterm newborns are susceptible to the development of debilitating inflammatory diseases, many of which are associated with chorioamnionitis. To define the effects of chorioamnionitis on the fetal immune system, IL-1β was administered intra-amniotically at ∼80% gestation in rhesus monkeys. IL-1β caused histological chorioamnionitis as well as lung inflammation (infiltration of neutrophils or monocytes in the fetal airways). There were large increases of multiple pro-inflammatory cytokine mRNAs in the lungs 24 h post-administration, which remained elevated relative to controls at 72 h. Intra-amniotic IL-1β also induced sustained expression of the surfactant proteins in the lungs. Importantly, IL-1β significantly altered the balance between inflammatory and regulatory T cells (Treg cells). Twenty-four h after IL-1β injection, the frequency of CD3+CD4+FOXP3+ T cells was decreased in lymphoid organs. In contrast, IL-17A–producing cells (CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD4−, and CD3−CD4− subsets) were increased in lymphoid organs. The frequency of IFN-γ-expressing cells did not change. In this model of a single exposure to an inflammatory trigger, CD3+CD4+FOXP3+ cells rebounded quickly and their frequency was increased at 72 h compared to controls. IL-17 expression was also transient. Interestingly, the T cell profile alteration was confined to the lymphoid organs and not to circulating fetal T cells. Together, these results suggest the chorioamnionitis-induced IL-1/IL-17 axis is involved in the severe inflammation that can develop in preterm newborns. Boosting Treg cells and/or controlling IL-17 may provide a means to ameliorate these abnormalities.
