  • BIOL 407: BIOLOGY OF CANCER

    4.00 Credits
    Delaware State University

    This course is designed to extend the basic concepts introduced in Cell Biology and Genetics and apply them to a well-known human disease, cancer. The course covers current concepts and knowledge of cancer, including research and treatment. This student will explore the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cancer development with the aim of understanding how changes in the normal growth and division processes lead to the formation of tumors. Lecture topics include the natural history of cancer, oncogenes, tumor suppressors, cancer-causing viruses, signal transduction, other genetic alterations in cancer, epidemiology, health care policy and current therapeutic approaches to cancer treatment. Three (3) lecture hours and three (3) hours of laboratory per week.Credit, four hours.

  • BIOL 408: PATHOPHYSIOLOGY

    0.00 - 4.00 Credits
    Delaware State University

    Pathophysiology is the study of abnormal function in living tissue. This course describes the basic biology of various disease processes, building upon the knowledge gained in Genetics, Cell Biology, and Principles of Physiology. Physiological principles underlying the causes, signs, symptoms, and pattern of development of human disease will be examined. Building upon a basic background in human biology, the manifestations of various human diseases will be explained by the way these diseases disrupt normal physiology, anatomy and biochemistry. Knowing how diseases disrupt normal physiology will also help in understanding the rationale behind many types of treatment. Health disparities will also be addressed.Pre-requisites: Cell Biology (23-215) and Genetics (23-210) with a C or better; Physiology (23-307) as a prerequisite or co-requisite; or by permission of instructors.Credit, four hours.

  • BIOL 422: BIOCHEMICAL MECHANISMS

    0.00 - 4.00 Credits
    Delaware State University

    The course is an integration of study of the molecular and cellular functions of a cell from the perspective of biochemistry. The course will focus on protein biochemistry, enzymatic activity and function, carbohydrate and lipid structure and function, and metabolism. Life is a chemical phenomenon but, for the most part, the chemistry of life is governed by the actions of proteins. Therefore, our focus will be on these proteins, what they do, and how they do it.Prerequisites: BIOL 210, CHEM 302.Credit, four hours. Prerequisite:    BIOL 210 AND CHEM 302

  • BIOL 442: BIOLOGY OF AGING

    3.00 Credits
    Delaware State University

    Biology of Aging presents biological principles that have led to a new understanding of the causes of aging and descripbes how these basic principles help one understand the human experience of biological aging, longevity, and age-related diseases. It describes how the rate of biological aging is measured and explores the mechanisms underlying cellular aging. This course will examine the genetic pathways that affect longevity in various organisms and outline the normal age-related changes and the functional decline that occurs in physiological systems over the lifespan; it also consideres the implications of modulating the rate of aging and longevity. This course will provide students with the opportunity to solidify their knowledge in molecular biology, genetics, cellular biology, and evolution and apply those basic principles to understanding the aging process.
