Language |
French

Place of the course |
Louvain-la-Neuve
|
Aims |
At the end of the course, the students should be able to :
- Describe most aspects of animal cell function (mitosis, protein synthesis, receptors and signaling pathways')
- Describe how the neuro-muscular system and the main sensory organs work
- Solve simple clinical cases related to those functions
- Make link with other courses (anatomy, histology, biochemistry
At the end of the course, the students will have a thorough knowledge of:
- Animal cell biology (complementary with biochemical courses)
Nervous physiology (central and periphery nervous system, sensory organs) and muscle physiology (skeletal and smooth muscles)
|
Evaluation methods |
Oral and written examination
|
Teaching methods |
Lectures
Practical exercises and exercises on neuro-muscular physiology (reflex, nervous pathways, ' in common with the anatomy course (VET1241B)
|
Content |
Table of Contents :
o Animal cell biology :
§ Nucleus organisation
§ Transcription and translation
§ Cytoskeleton and cell motility
§ Cell cycle
§ Cell death : necrosis, apoptosis and autophagy
§ Biomembranes
§ Cell communication
o General physiology
§ Membrane potential and nerveous cells
§ Skeletal and smooth muscle function and control
§ Receptors and sensory pathways
§ Motor control
§ Sensory organs
The difficulty of the course is related to the complexity of the matter (for example: nervous physiology and signaling pathways) and to the necessity to integrate knowledge from different fields and different courses (physics, anatomy, biochemistry')
