Course objectives

Patobiochemie volně navazuje na předmět biochemie vyučovaný v zimním semestru. Získali jste v něm přehled o metabolických pochodech v živém organismu, o významu a funkci jednotlivých molekul, vzniku a uplatnění metabolitů.
Cílem Patobiochemie je získat vědomosti o možných poruchách metabolických pochodů, jejich příčinách, projevech, možných reparacích a terapii.
Cílem praktických cvičení jsou analýzy některých vybraných diagnosticky významných látek, správná interpretace výsledků analýz a jejich využití pro potřeby humánní diagnostické a léčebné praxe.
