Cíle předmětu
The aim is to understand the basic biochemical processes characteristic at the cell level and individual tissues and organs and the principles of their regulation.
Výstupy z učení
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding of bioenergetics and biological oxidation, including redox reactions and their role in cellular energy production.
- Apply knowledge of enzyme kinetics and factors influencing enzyme activity to analyze and interpret biochemical pathways.
- Describe principles of the regulation of gene expression and its significance in cellular function and disease.
- Understand the basic metabolism of carbohydrates and the implications of carbohydrate-related disorders like diabetes mellitus.
- Comprehend the metabolism of lipids and the relevance of lipid-related disorders such as hyperlipidemia.
- Understand cholesterol metabolism, its role in cellular processes, and the synthesis of cholesterol and steroids.
- Understand amino acid metabolism, including the urea cycle, and recognize disorders related to amino acid metabolism.
- Comprehend the metabolism of nitrogen-containing compounds, such as nucleotides and heme, and understand purine and pyrimidine metabolism, disorders related to nitrogen metabolism.
- Explain the regulation of blood glucose levels and hormonal control, and understand the integration of carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism in different physiological states.
- Understand the regulation of water balance, electrolyte concentrations, and acid-base balance, as well as the mechanisms involved in maintaining homeostasis.
- Describe cell signalling pathways and signal transduction mechanisms, including the role of receptors, second messengers, and intracellular signalling cascades in physiological processes and diseases.
- Explain the process of blood clotting and the functions of the extracellular matrix, including collagen synthesis and bone metabolism.

Výukové metody
Problem-based learning of biochemistry, reflecting knowledge from previous courses of Biochemistry I and II.
The essential biochemical topics will be presented (lecture-like mode), followed by discussions (seminar-like mode). Students will be encouraged to see biochemical processes and relations in a broader perspective.
Metody hodnocení
Students must attend lessons to earn credit for the course; four absences during the semester will be accepted. ROPOT is not a prerequisite for credit.
