Microbial exposure in early life can have long-term consequences on health. However, our understanding of how the microbial environment shapes the offspring’s immune system is incomplete. In this report, we found that the proportion and function of fetal-derived CD8+ T cells are altered by the early microbial environment. These changes persist into adulthood and affect immune susceptibility to intracellular pathogens. Our findings provide key insights into how microbial exposure leads to individual variation in immune responsiveness, suggesting that we may be able to predict infection outcomes and disease risk based on the ratio of fetal- to adult-derived CD8+ T cells present in the adult immune system. Microbial exposure during development can elicit long-lasting effects on the health of an individual. However, how microbial exposure in early life leads to permanent changes in the immune system is unknown. Here, we show that the microbial environment alters the set point for immune susceptibility by altering the developmental architecture of the CD8+ T cell compartment. In particular, early microbial exposure results in the preferential expansion of highly responsive fetal-derived CD8+ T cells that persist into adulthood and provide the host with enhanced immune protection against intracellular pathogens. Interestingly, microbial education of fetal-derived CD8+ T cells occurs during thymic development rather than in the periphery and involves the acquisition of a more effector-like epigenetic program. Collectively, our results provide a conceptual framework for understanding how microbial colonization in early life leads to lifelong changes in the immune system.
