    Metabolic regulation
    (Abbas Laghrour University - Khenchela, 2025) BOUHALIT, Samira
    Metabolic regulation is a cornerstone of biochemistry, linking the complex network of biochemical pathways that govern the synthesis and breakdown of vital biological molecules. At the molecular level, the delicate balance of these processes ensures cellular and organismal homeostasis. Understanding the intricate regulation of metabolism is not only essential for unraveling the basic principles of life but also for addressing a wide range of pathological conditions that arise when these systems go awry. This course on Metabolic Regulation is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of how key metabolic pathways are interconnected, both at the molecular and systemic levels. Focusing on both non-endocrine and endocrine regulatory mechanisms, the course will explore how hormones and coenzymes control metabolism in various contexts, including carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism. Students will also delve into how these processes are disrupted in common diseases such as diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the course will examine how the regulation of phosphocalcic metabolism and immune-endocrine system interactions contribute to health and disease. Beyond the theoretical aspect, special attention will be given to understanding the molecular foundations and biochemical mechanisms underlying these regulations. This approach will equip students with the skills needed to analyze and interpret metabolic imbalances observed in various diseases and to better understand the therapeutic strategies suited to these disorders. By the end of this course, students will have gained a deeper appreciation of the biochemical mechanisms that maintain metabolic balance and how dysregulation of these processes can lead to metabolic disorders. They will also acquire the necessary tools to apply this knowledge in clinical, research, and industrial settings, preparing them for further studies or careers in the ever-evolving field of biochemistry.
