Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is the major sequela and can cause heart failure and premature mortality. The disease is mediated by humoral and cellular immune responses. In this review, we present the major events that can trigger heart lesions.Immunity in infants and young children must tolerate a myriad of new antigens that the newborn encounters after birth. We dedicated many years to defying the innate and adaptive mononuclear cell repertoire in pediatric subjects to conclude that immune regulation differs in children and adults and dominates immune functions in babies.This brief review is written in memory of Eli Sercarz, a colleague who among many achievements, pioneered and revitalized early-life immunity, a field that is of high relevance to child health. For a long time, the neonatal stage was viewed as a window during which exposure to antigen (Ag) induces immune tolerance. In early 1990, however, it was discovered that the newborn mouse given Ag on the day of birth develops immunity when challenged later with the same Ag. But, these secondary responses displayed a deficit in T-helper (Th)1 cells and excess Th2 lymphocytes. Such discoveries explain the perceived tolerance of Ags given at the neonatal stage and correlate the paucity of effective neonatal vaccines and vulnerability to allergic reactions. Analyzing the mechanisms underlying neonatal Th1 cell deficits revealed a complex developmental interaction between Ag-presenting cells and the cytokines that they produced. This culminated into limited interleukin (IL)-12 in the environment and up-regulation of IL-13Rα1 expression and its association with IL-4Rα on the surface of Th1 cells. After Ag re-exposure, Th2 cells produce IL-4 and -13. Both
