CODE 57734 ACADEMIC YEAR 2021/2022 CREDITS 2 cfu anno 1 SCIENZE MOTORIE, SPORT E SALUTE 8744 (L-22) - SAVONA SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR BIO/17 TEACHING LOCATION SAVONA SEMESTER 1° Semester MODULES Questo insegnamento è un modulo di: ANATOMY AND HYSTOLOGY TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB OVERVIEW The module of Histology, in the context of the C.I. of Anatomy and Histology, aims to integrate the knowledge of "functional histology" and cell biology by aiming to provide students with knowledge about the organization of cells and human tissues with particular attention to the connection between morphology and function. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The study of normal human histology and human anatomy, which is mutually propedeutic, must allow for a level of knowledge of the tissues, apparatus and systems of the human body, a necessary premise for the optimal understanding of motor and sports activities in all stages of life. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES To Know structure, organization and function of different human tissues and morphological-functional characteristics of cells that compose them. During the last lessons of the course, students are given some tests to assess the knowledge acquired. A moment of discussion with the teacher on the results of the tests follows. TEACHING METHODS Frontal lecture Due to emergency situations that prevent the performance of the lessons in attendance, the lessons will be carried out through the Teams platform. SYLLABUS/CONTENT EUKARYOTIC CELL: The main steps in eukaryotic cell evolution The plasma membrane: Structure and functions Membrane transports Endocytosis and esocytosis The cytoplasm: Hyaloplasm Ribosomes Rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (RER) Smooth-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (REL) Golgi apparatus Lysosomes Peroxisomes Mitochondria The cytoskeleton Cell movement Cell motility and intracellular transport Cell junctional complexes The nucleous The nucleolus Cell cycle and mitosis TISSUES: Epithelial tissue: Main characteristics of epithelia Lining epithelia: organization and classification Structural surface differentiations of epithelial cells (microvilli, stereocilia, cilia) Secretory epithelia: • exocrine glands • endocrine glands Connective tissue: Extracellular matrix: • fibers • ground substance Cell components of connective tissue Connective tissue proper Support connective tissue: cartilage and bone tissue Ossification Trophic connective tissue: blood and lymph Lymphatic tissue Cells of the innate and adaptive immune system Muscle tissue: striated skeletal and cardiac muscle smooth muscle tissue Myofibril structure and muscle contraction Nerve tissue: neurons glial cells nerve fibers synapses and impulse transmission RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY "Elementi di Istologia e Cenni di Embriologia" a cura di A.

TEACHERS AND EXAM BOARD EMANUELA MARCENARO Ricevimento: By appointment by e-mail: emanuela.marcenaro@unige.it ALESSANDRA DONDERO Ricevimento: Student reception by appointment, contact the teacher via e-mail: alessandra.dondero@unige.it Exam Board DANIELA ZARCONE (President) ALESSANDRA DONDERO EMANUELA MARCENARO (President and Coordinator of Integrated Course) LESSONS LESSONS START October, 2016 Class schedule HISTOLOGY EXAMS EXAM DESCRIPTION Written (Cytology) and oral Oral (Histology).examination ASSESSMENT METHODS The exam is written for the part of Cytology (quiz questions) and oral for the part of Histology. The oral examination is always led by the holders of the course and has a duration of at least 30 minutes (typically 45 minutes). With these modes, given the long experience of examinations in the discipline, the commission is able to verify with high accuracy the achievement of learning outcomes When these are not reached, the student is invited to deepen the study and to take advantage of further explanation by the teacher. It is possible that the emergency situations prevent the students to taking part in the examination in attendance for the final evaluation. In this case, the Teams platform will be used.
