| In this course, we will build on the basic knowledge of toxicology that students have acquired in the second year course on ‘Metabolism and Toxicology’. Interactions of drugs with various systems in the human body will be discussed, with particular focus on toxicological effects drugs may have in these systems. With the arrival of advanced strategies for drug delivery, evaluation of changes in drug toxicity profiles and drug safety are essential. As such, novel and traditional toxicity testing methods and models will be discussed and compared. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Getracht wordt, d.m.v. door de studenten zelf geïnitieerde onderzoeksprotocollen, het werkingsprofiel van 3 onbekende farmaca te achterhalen aan de hand van farmacologische referentiestoffen en gebruikmakend van verschillende farmacologische opstellingen. Onbekende geneesmiddelen worden in vergelijking met bekende agonisten en antagonisten functioneel op receptorniveau gekarakteriseerd d.m.v. contractie-experimenten aan geïsoleerde gladdespier- (ileum, trachea, aorta, vas deferens) en hartspier (atrium)-preparaten, meting van intracellulaire Ca2+ concentraties en activatie van signaal transductie-eiwitten in gekweekte gladde spier- en epitheelcellen, en interactieve computer simulaties van effecten op bloeddruk en hartritme, gedrag en skeletspierfunctie.

| During the first semester of the propaedeutic phase, students were introduced to the main principles in physiology including defence mechanisms and immunology, and developed the ability to understand and explain these principles in the treatment approach of pathologies using pharmacological interventions, with a special focus on diabetes mellitus. In this course unit, more attention will be paid to the underlying mechanisms that play a role in our body’s functioning in healthy situations and when affected by diseases. It concerns a more in-depth study of the treatment approach to diseases by pharmacists. The following topics will be addressed in this course unit: - key definitions in pharmacology: pharmacodynamics versus pharmacokinetics - the functional mechanisms of pharmaceuticals and pharmacological definitions: agonist, antagonist, inverse agonist, receptor reserve, receptor regulation (desensitization, up/down regulation) - signal transduction mechanisms: G protein-coupled receptors, ligand-gated ion channels, kinase-coupled receptors, nuclear receptors, crosstalk between signal transduction mechanisms, the function of arrestins, ubiquitylation - basic principles of neurotransmission: presynaptic and postsynaptic receptors, co-transmission - receptor subtypes and signal transduction: the cholinergic, adrenergic, serotonergic, dopaminergic, histaminergic and purinergic systems - function of autacoids and their receptors, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the functioning of local anaesthetics. This course unit dovetails with the learning outcomes a, b, d, f, g, i and j of the Bachelor’s degree programme in Pharmacy (OER Appendix I). | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 45 | The Cell, a Practical Approach | WBFA010-03 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Two, or by exception three, students will form a team to perform experiments in the areas of cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry and genetics. Some techniques are: bacterial production of a biopharmaceutical; protein purification; testing of biopharmaceutical on cancer cells; measuring the enzymatic activity of a beta-lactamase; SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; restriction analysis of DNA/plasmids; transfection of eukaryotic cells; isolation of buccal epithelial cells; PCR; microscopy. To perform these experiments, the students will use an inquiry based lab education software (https://www.labbuddy.net/) under guidance of assistants. During the practical, each student will keep track of his/her work in a lab notebook. This notebook can and will be controlled by an assistant. After the first practical week, each student will hand in a concept of a report on the performed experiments. The assistants will give comments and advice, but not grade this version. The final report, incorporating these comments, will be graded on: completeness; clarity; critical and logical analysis of data; formulation and conclusions. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
