Study: NCT05054361

Intervention type: PROCEDURE
Intervention: UGI Endoscopy
Description: Duodenal biopsy collection and analysis. Biopsies will be analyzed by qPCR for the expression of key epithelial molecules such as the fucosyl transferase 2 (fut2), tight junction proteins (occludin, claudin4), antimicrobial peptides (Reg3, LL37) and mucus component (mucin 2). Immune cells function will also be assessed by q-PCR for key cytokines/molecules such as IL-23, IL-17, IL-22, Foxp3, IL-10, TGFb and CVB.

Intervention type: DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
Intervention: Coxsackie virus B infection status
Description: Serology against CVB and CVB specific-qPCR measurement in gut microbiota samples will be performed in all patients of the three cohorts, and analysis of the gut mucosa by qPCR and immunochemistry with anti-CVB VP1 protein mAb will be performed on a subset of patients.

Intervention type: DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
Intervention: Coxsackie virus B infection status
Description: Stool samples are collected and directly kept under anaerobic condition. Within an hour the samples are processed: one fraction is aliquoted and frozen at -80°C and another fraction is used to prepared fecal supernatant for the bioassay of MAIT ligands, aliquoted and frozen. Bioassay to measure the presence of MAIT cell ligands by bioassays using WT3 cell line as well as plate bound MR117. 16S sequencing of all samples and according to the results obtained with the bioassay and 16S, 10 samples will be selected for metagenomic analysis.
