NutriPsy: Nutrition and Neuropsychiatric symptom dimensions

NutriPsy

Leader: Lucile Capuron, DR1 INRAE lucile.capuron@inrae.fr

Deputy leader: Marie-Pierre Moisan, DR2 INRAE marie-pierre.moisan@inrae.fr

Team presentation

The overarching scientific objective of the Nutripsy team is to understand how nutrition can contribute to mental health, and to identify the mechanisms by which nutritional imbalances promote the development of neuropsychiatric symptoms, focusing on inflammatory processes. For this purpose, we propose a translational and integrative research program with the following complementary specific aims: 

i)               to elucidate the mechanisms by which inflammation, in relation to dietary habits, leads to neuropsychiatric symptom dimensions and antidepressant resistance 

ii)              to determine the influence of environmental factors and genetic variants related to inflammation on depressive symptoms and antidepressant response in clinical and preclinical models of nutritional imbalances, 

iii)              to propose innovative personalized treatment strategies through targeted nutritional approaches guided by the clinical, biological/inflammatory, and nutritional profiles of patients. 

This research program represents a critical step toward a precision medicine applied to mental health, in a context where the efficacy of standard treatments remains mitigated.
