Inmunonutrición Molecular Group
Director Prof: José Moisés Laparra Llopis.
ACTIVITY GROUP’S DESCRIPTION
immunonutritional-based precision intervention strategies to selectively modulate innate immune responses preventing/treating the risk for severity of diseases affecting the gut-liver axis.
Understanding of how tolerance and immunity regulate antitumoral responses, among other, this project aims at elucidating innate cell biology as a path forward to develop durable, long-lasting immune responses.
To define the extent to which immunonutritional-based modulation can be translated into physiological benefits within the neuro-immunometabolic axis.
The research group has contributed to establish physiologically-based new tools to model human diseases. Additionally, there were provided significant patents and contributions demonstrating the potential selective modulation of innate immunity’s amplitude of signaling within the neuro-immunometabolic axis.
