Data in support of Prenatal intra-amniotic lipopolysaccharide induces neonatal renal immune activation after preterm birth

ABSTRACT: Preterm birth is often predisposed by chorioamnionitis (CA) and CA affects the fetal gut and lungs via intra-amniotic (IA) inflammation, thus accentuating the proinflammatory effects of preterm birth. It is not known if IA inflammation also affects other perfusion-sensitive organs (e.g., kidneys) before and after preterm birth. Using preterm pigs as model for preterm infants, we hypothesized that CA induces fetal and neonatal renal dysfunctions that can intially be detected via plasma proteome, partly explaining the frequent renal dysfunction in preterm infants. Fetal pigs (88% gestation) were given an IA dose of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 1 mg/kg, n=28), delivered preterm by cesarean section three days later, and compared with controls (CON, n=26) at birth and postnatal day five. Plasma proteome and protein markers of inflammatory pathways were evaluated.

Prenatal inflammation is a major risk for preterm birth and neonatal morbidity, but its effects on postnatal immunity and organ functions remain unclear. Using preterm pigs as a model for preterm infants, we investigated whether prenatal intra-amniotic (IA) inflammation modulates postnatal systemic immune status and organ functions. Preterm pigs exposed to IA lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 3 days were compared with controls at birth and postnatal day 5 after formula feeding. IA LPS induced mild ch ...[more]

Project description:Chorioamnionitis (CA), resulting from intra-amniotic inflammation, is a frequent cause of preterm birth and exposes the immature intestine to bacterial toxins and/or inflammatory mediators before birth via fetal swallowing. This may affect intestinal immune development, interacting with the effects of enteral feeding and gut microbiota colonization just after birth. Using preterm pigs as model for preterm infants, we hypothesized that prenatal exposure to gram-negative endotoxin influences postnatal bacterial colonization and gut immune development. Pig fetuses were given intra-amniotic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 3 d before preterm delivery by cesarean section, and were compared with litter-mate controls (CON) at birth and after 5 d of formula feeding and spontaneous bacterial colonization. Amniotic fluid was collected for analysis of leukocyte counts and cytokines, and the distal small intestine was analyzed for endotoxin level, morphology and immune cell counts. Intestinal gene expression and microbiota were analyzed by transcriptomics and metagenomics, respectively. At birth, LPS-exposed pigs showed higher intestinal endotoxin, neutrophil/macrophage density and shorter villi. About 1.0% of intestinal genes were affected at birth and DMBT1, a regulator of mucosal immune defense, was identified as the hub gene in the co-expression network. Genes related to innate immune response (TLR2, LBP, CD14, C3, SFTPD), neutrophil chemotaxis (C5AR1, CSF3R, CCL5) and antigen processing (MHC II, CD4) were also affected and expression levels correlated with intestinal neutrophil/macrophage density and amniotic fluid cytokine levels. On day 5, LPS and CON pigs showed similar necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) lesions, endotoxin levels, morphology, immune cell counts, gene expressions and microbiota (except for difference in some low-abundant species). Our results show that CA markedly affects intestinal genes at preterm birth, including genes related to immune cell infiltration. However, a few days later, following the physiological adaptations to preterm birth, CA had limited effects on intestinal structure, function, gene expression, bacterial colonization and NEC sensitivity. We conclude that short-term, prenatal intra-amniotic inflammation is unlikely to exert marked effects on intestinal immune development in preterm neonates beyond the immediate neonatal period.
