Brief Summary:

Crohn's disease is a multifactorial complex disease resulting in a between microbiota and immune system. Indeed, GWAS (Genome-Wide Association Studies) association study pinpointed polymorphisms as genes susceptibility on more than 200 loci. Among them genes coding for proteins involved in autophagy machinery (i.e: ATG16L1, IRGM et NDP52). Autophagy is a ubiquitous intracellular mechanism mandatory for protein and microorganism recycling.

So far, the role of autophagy in gut inflammation and intestinal homeostasis in Crohn's disease patients is partially understand. Then, investigators plan to evaluate, on native cells, the autophagic flux in pediatric patients suffering of a Crohn's disease compare to controls.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Crohn's Disease Group
Patients followed for a Crohn's Disease in consultation or in day hospital aged between 6 and 18 years old.
Other: Blood samples
Blood sample of maximum 20ml (5 tubes of EDTA of 4ml or 5 tubes of EDTA of 2ml and a tube for the conservation of genomic DNA)

Other: Biopsies
5 biopsies (one for each segment of the intestine explored: ileum, right colon, transverse colon left colon and sigmoid) will be taken during the ileocolonoscopy

Control Group
Patients followed for functional abdominal disorders
Other: Blood samples
Blood sample of maximum 20ml (5 tubes of EDTA of 4ml or 5 tubes of EDTA of 2ml and a tube for the conservation of genomic DNA)

Other: Biopsies
5 biopsies (one for each segment of the intestine explored: ileum, right colon, transverse colon left colon and sigmoid) will be taken during the ileocolonoscopy




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Quantification of autophagic flux by western blot. [ Time Frame: 1 day (during hospitalization for ileocolonoscopy) ]
    LC3II/LC3I will be measured by western blot after booking the autophagic flux at different time point.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of autophagic polymorphisms in pediatric Crohn's disease population [ Time Frame: 1 day (during hospitalization for ileocolonoscopy) ]
    DNA sequencing of polymorphisms reported in the literature as gene mutations susceptibility for Crohn's disease.
