| Course contents :
| A. Introduction
1. Which course program? 2. Remembering of thermodynamics notions 3. ATP and molecules with "high energy level" 4. Biochemical couplage 5. ATP origin 6. Electron drain in anoxia 7. Organs concerned by an effort
B. Study methods in Biochemistry of effort
C. Muscle contraction
1. Striated muscle: morphology, cytology, type, typage 2. The main components of the contraction system: myosin, actin, troponin, actomyosin, other proteins fixing calcium (parvalbumin, calmodulin...) 3. Mechanisms of muscle contraction 4. Ca++ ATPase 5. Muscle action potential (molecular level)
D. Short and heavy exercise ("sprint")
1. Metabolic sequence (remembering) 2. Main muscles concerned 3. Excitement: metabolism activation 4. Effort in anaerobiosis: metabolic sequences concerned 5. Recovery 6. Proton origins 7. Lactate problem
E. Heavy and long exercise ("marathon")
1. Muscles mainly concerned 2. Metabolism (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins) 2.1. Muscle level 2.2. Liver level 2.3. Adipocyte level | |
