Laurea magistrale in Scienze motorie preventive ed adattate - Enrollment from 2025/2026

I Regolamenti dei corsi di laurea e di laurea magistrale di scienze motorie prevedono che gli studenti possano completare il proprio piano didattico, frequentando oltre agli insegnamenti obbligatori anche delle attività formative a scelta, per approfondire alcuni aspetti tematici o settori di interesse, in coerenza con il proprio percorso formativo.

Le attività formative a scelta di ambito D sono indicate all’interno del piano didattico del corso di studio prescelto, mentre le attività formative di ambito F sono individuate da una apposita commissione di docenti. Queste ultime attività possono essere conferenze, seminari, webinar, altro e vengono acquisite con una valutazione e non con un voto in trentesimi.

Learning objectives

The course will consider the knowledge of the biochemical processes implicated in muscle cell functioning in a vision that integrates the entire organism. The student will learn to correlate the thermodynamic and kinetic features of the biochemical reactions belonging to the metabolism, including their enzymatic regulation, with the physiological responses to exercise in the absence or presence of various types of training.

Prerequisites and basic notions

To attend the course with profit, the student should have acquired knowledge of Chemistry and Biochemistry addressed during the three-year course. However, some fundamentals are retaken by the teacher.

Program

Energetic macromolecules and kinetic structure of the biochemical pathways: principles of the metabolic control of enzymes involved in the production of energy during physical exercise; equilibrium reactions and non equilibrium reactions, flux generating reactions, direction of a metabolic pathway; enzymes catalyzing flux generating reactions, the lactate dehydrogenase as an example.
Metabolic activity of the skeletal muscle: aerobic metabolism, alactic and lactic metabolism during the physical exercise; phosphocreatine and lactate; Cori Cycle.
Metabolism of carbohydrates: the effects on exercise and training in skeletal muscle.
Metabolism of amino-acids and proteins: the effects on exercise and training in skeletal muscle.
Metabolism of lipids: the effects on exercise and training in skeletal muscle.
Focus on some key enzymes that regulate energy metabolism after a training session.
Metabolic alterations in pathological conditions.

Didactic methods

Frontal teaching as the main teaching method.
Students who are in isolation due to Covid positivity will be made available the slides and other educational materials from lessons they were unable to attend.

Learning assessment procedures

A 60-minute written exam that includes both multiple-choice tests and open questions in which to expand on and articulate the answer.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

The ability to organize knowledge and the ability to critically reason about the realized study will be evaluated. The score will be given in thirtieths.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The score is composed of multiple answers and open answers, which on average carry more weightage.
