Precision Diagnostics of Functional and Organic Intestinal Pathology Based on Cellular and Molecular Profiling
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Differential diagnosis of functional and organic intestinal pathology is carried out in line with approved clinical guidelines and includes a significant list of interventions. However, considering the possibility of an "overlap" between functional and organic diseases, as well as the non-specificity of a number of assessment parameters, it is advisably to define new diagnostic approaches and reliable cell and molecular markers, that will update and ensure the precision diagnostics of intestinal diseases. The integrative functional, cell and molecular markers will create the basis and possibilities for the personalized selection of patient therapy.
The study is intended to develop the methods of precision diagnostics based on cellular-molecular profiling with an assessment of functional parameters of the intestine in functional and organic intestinal diseases.

Experimental: Precision diagnostics profiling The study will involve subjects with endoscopically, laboratory and clinically confirmed diagnoses of organic and functional intestinal pathology or none of the above (healthy volunteers). All diagnoses are defined in accordance with the validated criteria presented in the clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of functional bowel pathology (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), 2020, Crohn's Disease (approved by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, 2020), Ulcerative Colitis (approved by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, 2020), in accordance with international criteria of ECCO-ESGAR Guidelines, 2018, 2019. After the initial screening and inclusion in the study, intestinal biopsy samples are taken in accordance with the applied endoscopic examination technique during the endoscopic examination. These biopsy samples will be further used for molecular and immunological diagnostics. |
Diagnostic Test: cell and molecular diagnostics in accordance with functional test results
Procedure: Anorectal manometry (ARM) Studies are performed in the left lateral position with the hips and knees of the subject flexed. Manometric sensor records circumferential pressure. The base of the rectal balloon attached to the ARM catheter is sited 3-5 cm above the upper border of the anal canal, to prevent the balloon impinging upon the anal canal during inflation. The most distal recording sensor is external to anal verge. If any pain or discomfort is experienced, the probe is immediately withdrawn.
Procedure: Rectal sensory test (RST) The test is also performed in the left lateral position with hips and knees flexed. Studies are conducted with either an integrated balloon on the manometric probe or with a separate system. Balloon capacity is no less than 400 mls and all components are latex-free. Insufflation is always performed with air. For ramp distension, the rate should be between 1 and 5 mL/s, and for phasic distension, inflation rate should be set at 10 mL/s (C1).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Changes of metabolic profile in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Assessment of metabolome ( gas chromatographic analysis with vapor-phase extraction). Metabolic parameters (Tetradecanoic acid, Hydracinnamic acid, Hexadecanoic acid, Hexanoic acid, Indole, Pentanoic acid) will be measured in feces by gas chromatographic analysis with vapor-phase extraction method. Metabolite extraction methods are performed according to the standard metabolite isolation protocol.The above mentioned metabolites will be measured in intensity of the ion current of the analyzed metabolite, normalized to the total ion current according to the standardized methods.
- Changes in genetic profile in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Assessment of genetic profiling (risk polymorphism assessment). Assessment of risk polymorphisms: NOD2 (rs2066844, rs2066845, rs17221417), ATG16L1 (rs2241880), IL23R (rs2201841) will be performed in leukocyte fraction of blood samples according to the standardized methods. Resulting relative risk will be assessed according to the data on relative risks for each of the above mentioned polymorphisms.
- Changes in immunological profile (local) in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Assessment of local cytokine profile by Human Cytokine Screening panel Bio-plex Pro (27 cytokines, concentrations measured in pg/ml). Local cytokine profile will be assessed in gut biopsy lyophilisate. All cytokine concentrations will be measured in pg/ml.
- Changes in immunological profile (systemic) in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Assessment of systemic cytokine profile by Human Cytokine Screening panel Bio-plex Pro (27 cytokines, concentrations measured in pg/ml). Systemic cytokine profile will be assessed by serum analysis. All cytokine concentrations will be measured in pg/ml.
- Changes in functional parameter - RST in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Instrumental assessment of RST during functional examination. This is the procedure that assesses rectal sensitivity to distension utilizing the balloon attached to the catheter tip. The procedure is performed according to standardized IAPWG manometry protocol (2020). The measurement will be performed in mls. Quantitative measurement of balloon volume is recorded for each of the three patient-reported sensory thresholds: first constant sensation volume (FCSV), desire to defecate volume (DDV) and maximum tolerated volume (MTV).
- Changes in functional parameter - ARM in patients with functional and organic intestinal diseases [2 years]
Instrumental assessment of ARM during functional examination. The procedure is performed according to standardized IAPWG manometry protocol (2020). The measurement will be performed in mmHg.
