Project description
The team of researchers from the Colegio de la Frontera Sur (ECOSUR), will seek to demonstrate the relationship between intestinal microbiota and metabolic syndrome in adolescents from marginalized areas of Chiapas.
One of the objectives is to know "how the microorganisms that inhabit the intestine modify the function of genes in the whole organism", Dr. Itandehui Castro, researcher at the Colegio de la Frontera Sur (ECOSUR) in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas.
