Content |
The human biochemistry course includes:
(1) Metabolic pathways: nucleotides, cholesterol and lipoproteins, integration and adaptation to various nutritional and hormonal states.
(2) Blood biochemistry: coagulation and fibrinolysis, regulation of blood pH and acido-basic disorders.
(3) Calcium metabolism and its hormonal control.
(4) Inflammatory response
(5) Metabolism of mineralized tissues
(6) Biochemical process of caries (glucidic metabolism of bacteria, salivary function, and fluorine metabolism in dental plaque and mineralized tissues)
