Main themes Comprehensive outline of the mechanisms regulating cell homeostasis (intra and extracellular buffers, mechanisms of exchange of materials and information between intracellular and intracellular compartments, intercellular communication).
Aims By the end of this course, the students will possess a general knowledge of fundamental concepts in cell physiology, and in particular the principles of cell homeostasis and the interaction of the cell with its environment. In this perspective, the animal cell is considered as a single biological unit participating in the formation of an integrated organism.
Content The course is intended to cover the mechanisms of the exchanges that eukaryotic cells develop with their environment and the way the cell responds to alterations of this environment or diverse stimuli, the chemical and electrical intercellular communications used for the transmission of information, and the mechanisms of excitation-contraction coupling in the different types of muscles.
