Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Although several studies have revealed signaling pathways as well as genes potentially involved in the development of esophageal atresia (EA), our understanding of the pathophysiology of EA lags behind improvements in the surgical and clinical care of patients born with this anomaly. However, a causative genetic abnormality can be identified in less than 10% of patients, even using more recent next-generation sequencing techniques. As most cases of EA associated with tracheoesophageal fistula (TOF) are sporadic, and the familial recurrence rate is low (1%), this suggests that epigenetic and environmental factors also contribute to the disease. Further investigations are needed to better understand the mechanisms underlying EA. That information can come from the oesophageal biopsies that are collected in routine care and long-term storage at the hospital. However, the impact of the length of the storage is still unknown.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: Anastomosis group

Esophageal biopsies collected during the anastomosis for the patient with esophageal atresia

Procedure: Esophageal biopsy collection during anastomosis
During the anastomosis, the surgeon will collect an esophageal mucosa biopsy

No Intervention: Control group

Esophageal biopsies collected during a standard care endoscopy for patient with esophageal atresia during the first year of life

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Comparison of the mRNA expression from esophageal biopsies between long and short term storage [The biopsies will be collected during the first year of life]

    Transcriptomic profiles will be generated by the identification of mRNA and miRNA expression by 3'RNA-seq and sRNA-seq technologies. Differential expression between long and short term storage will be performed.[exploratory and untargeted analysis]

  2. Comparison of the metabolites identification from esophageal biopsies between long and short term storage [The biopsies will be collected during the first year of life]

    Metabolomic profiles will be generated (untargeted analysis that will include mnulmerous lipids, amino-acids, ...). Differential expression between long and short term storage will be performed. [exploratory and untargeted analysis]
