BIOAP 3160

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

A comprehensive course covering the general characteristics of eukaryotic cells; the structure, composition, and function of subcellular organelles; and the major signal transduction pathways regulating a variety of physiological cell activities. Among the main subjects covered are absorption and transport processes, mechanism of action of signaling molecules (hormones), the cell cycle and regulation of cell proliferation, cell-cell communication, extracellular matrix, stem cells, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis.

When Offered Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: BIOMG 1350 or previous or concurrent enrollment in BIOMG 3300, BIOMG 3310, BIOMG 3320, BIOMG 3330, or NS 3200.

Distribution Category (BIO-AS, PBS-AS)

Outcomes
  • Recognize and describe cell biology structure and physiology to human diseases characterized by disruption of the normal functioning of these structures and molecular processes.
  • Recognize and describe cell biology structure and physiology to the molecular mechanisms altered by clinically used pharmaceuticals.
  • Recognize and describe cell biology structure and physiology to complex tissue functions, particularly with respect to stem cell and cancer biology.
  • Discuss current research aimed at uncovering the underlying molecular processes, therapeutic targeting, and solving the current challenges for treating human diseases related to dysfunction cell biological structure and physiology, particularly with respect to cancer biology.
