Tobacco smoke is a common global environmental pollutant. Maternal tobacco smoke/nicotine exposure has long-term toxic effects on immune organs. We previously found that prenatal nicotine exposure (PNE)-induced programmed immune diseases caused by fetal thymic hypoplasia, but the mechanism still unknown. Autophagy has important functions in maintaining thymopoiesis, whether autophagy was involved in PNE-inhibited fetal thymocytes development is also obscure. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate how nicotine changed the development of fetal thymocytes from the perspective of autophagy in vivo and in vitro. PNE model was established by 3 mg/kg nicotine administration in Balb/c mice from gestational day 9 to 18. The results showed that PNE reduced the percentage and absolute number of CD69−CD4+SP cells, suggesting a block of fetal thymocytes mature. PNE promoted autophagosome formation, autophagy related proteins (Beclin1, LC3I/II) expression, and upregulated α7 nAChR as well as AMPK phosphorylation in fetal thymus. Moreover, PNE promoted Bcl10 degradation via autophagy-mediated proteolysis and inhibited p65 activation, blocking the transition of thymocytes between the DP to SP stage. Further, primary thymocytes were treated with nicotine in vitro and showed induced autophagy in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In addition, nicotine-inhibited CD69−CD4+SP cells and the Bcl10/p-p65 pathway have been reversed by an autophagy inhibitor. The α7 nAChR specific antagonist abrogated nicotine-induced AMPK phosphorylation and autophagy initiation. In conclusion, our findings showed that PNE repressed the Bcl10/p-p65 development pathway of CD4+SP cells by triggering autophagy, and illuminated the developmental origin mechanism of programmed immune diseases in PNE offspring. •PNE blocked the development and emigration of CD4+SP cells in fetal thymus.•Autophagy mediated the inhibition of thymocytes development in PNE fetus.•PNE triggered autophagy via α7 nAChR/AMPK pathway in fetal thymocytes.•PNE promoted Bcl10 degradation mediated by p62 and inhibited p65 activation.
