RESENDIS ANTONIO LAB


Blending Biology and Computation to understand human diseases.



Who we are

Welcome to the webpage of the Human Systems Biology group in the National Institute for Genomic Medicine at Mexico City, INMEGEN. Our group is interdisciplinary and have the objective to develop a systems biology framework to analyze mainly human diseases and metabolic phenotype in microorganisms through the use of computational models and high-throughput technologies. Currently, our laboratory focuses on the analysis of metabolic alterations in cancer cells by the implementation of genome scale metabolic reconstructions and assess the predictions in terms of experimental data at different scales.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, has led to significant challenges worldwide, including diverse clinical outcomes and prolonged post-recovery symptoms known as Long COVID or Post-COVID-19 syndrome. Emerging evidence suggests a crucial role of metabolic reprogramming in the infection’s long-term consequences. This study employs a novel approach utilizing machine learning (ML) and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to analyze metabolic alterations in COVID-19 and Post-COVID-19 patients. Samples were taken from a cohort of 142 COVID-19, 48 Post-COVID-19, and 38 control patients, comprising 111 identified metabolites.
