Endpoints

Primary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Energy metabolism of major immune cell types for peripheral blood will be assessed on a blood sample. The energy metabolism will be assessed by single-cell energetic metabolism by profiling translation inhibition","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Assessed on a blood sample using single-cell energetic metabolism profiling by profiling translation inhibition (SCENITH)"}

Secondary endpoints

  • {"endpoint_text":"- Impact of the gut microbiota and its alterations in inflammatory bowel disease on the fate of microbiota-derived carbon sources in host cells: we will use a strategy based on stable isotope probing (SIP). The participants will receive orally food grade inulin from Chicory (2% labelled with 13C) at H0 on day 0 (v1) and day 7 (v2) for healthy adults and day 0 (v1) only for patients with IBD. The incorporation of 13C in metabolites will then be assessed","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Participants receive 13C-labelled inulin orally (2%) at specified visits; incorporation of 13C into metabolites assessed by metabolomic analysis on blood samples collected hourly from 2 to 10 h post-ingestion (and at J7 for volunteers)"}
  • {"endpoint_text":"- Identification of the intestinal bacteria responsible for the metabolism of the labeled inulin: we will use SIP-DNA and SIP-RNA sequencing approaches: DNA and RNA will be extracted from each fecal samples obtained","definition_or_measurement_approach":"DNA and RNA extracted from fecal samples and analysed using SIP-DNA and SIP-RNA sequencing to identify bacteria incorporating 13C-labelled substrate"}
