英文摘要
ABSTRACT
The “Developmental Origin of Health and Disease” hypothesis posits that susceptibility to a number of non-
communicable diseases can be influenced by in utero exposures (nutritional, environmental, inflammatory).
While this hypothesis is increasingly accepted, particularly for diseases with an immune etiology (i.e. allergic,
autoimmune), the mechanisms involved remain unresolved. A major knowledge gap that limits progress in this
area is the remaining paucity of information regarding the “normal” immune processes that occur during critical
pre- and perinatal periods, and how this development may be influenced by fetal exposures. One fetal exposure
with a repeated and robust impact on long-term health is inflammation of the placenta – termed chorioamnionitis
(chorio), which, in severe cases, leads to inflammation of fetal membranes and increased levels of inflammatory
mediators in both the amniotic fluid and the neonates’ cord bloods. Our preliminary data show in human infants
that exposure to severe chorio (1) is associated with respiratory morbidity during early infancy, and (2) leads to
increased levels of the Th17-associated transcription factor RORC in the circulation in the first month of life. To
get deeper insights into the underlying mechanisms, we have developed an experimental model of chorio in the
Rhesus macaque, which presents with very high level of similarities with human chorio. Intra-amniotic (IA)
injection of LPS into pregnant animals leads to massive neutrophilic infiltration and up-regulation of inflammatory
cytokines in the chorio-decidua, and significant changes in the fetal immune system, including (1) severe lung
inflammation;; (2) alteration of the regulatory T cell (Treg)/Th17 balance in the spleen, with the increased accrual
of “inflammatory Tregs”;; and (3) increased proportion of activated type 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3) in the
mucosal areas. LPS-induced fetal inflammation was largely driven by IL-1-dependent mechanisms.
These data lead us to hypothesize that exposure to chorio induces alterations of the fetal systemic and mucosal
immune system, notably through alterations of Tregs and ILCs, that predispose to post-natal diseases, including
respiratory problems. We will (1) analyze in depth the accrual of fetal inflammatory Tregs in the context of chorio,
using single cell RNAseq, methylation profiling and unique functional assays;; (2) analyze how fetal inflammation
directs the ontogeny and functional development of ILC3 through detailed phenotyping of ILC and their
progenitors for homing/adhesion molecules, analysis of the transcriptome of fetal NHP ILC by scRNAseq, and
the use of unique ILC3 functional assays we have developed;; and 3) determine how fetal inflammation
longitudinally impacts accumulation of inflammatory Tregs or ILC3 precursor development, and neonatal immune
function, by monitoring control and chorio-exposed neonates from birth to 4 months of age, characterizing 1) the
normal course of recruitment of inflammatory Tregs and ILC3 in various compartments, and 2) immune responses
to common neonatal vaccines and environmental allergens.
