In recent years, the use of cell cultures as experimental models in nutritional studies has increased exponentially. It is necessary for the student to know the basis of cell culture, and their advantages and limitations. Therefore, the main objective of this course is to provide the students with the knowledge and skill related to the study of epithelial barrier function and transcellular transport of nutrients. Once the course ends, the student will have to know: - The morphological and physiological characteristics of the intestinal epithelium. -The fundaments of cell behaviour in cultures and basic techniques associated with cell cultures. - The rules that regulate the work in a laboratory of cell cultures. -The basic strategies for designing experimental cell cultures. | AC1 AC3 AC5 AC6 AC7 AR1 AR2 AR3 AR4 |
