6180:61817180:7181: Pharmacology
Seminar
Cr. 1. (1-0). Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
6198:6298:6398:6498:6598:
Special Problems
Cr. 1-5. (0-3:0-6:0-9:0-12:0-15). Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
6141: 6142: 7141:
7142:7242: Pharmacological
Literature Review
Cr. 1. (1-0). Prerequisite: consent of instructor. A critical review of
the literature published in pharmacology, including an analysis and appraisal
of the selected publications.
6350: Neurophysiology
Cr. 3. (3-0). An in-depth coverage of the principles of physiology of
excitable cells and pathophysiology of the central and peripheral nervous
systems including etiology of neurological diseases as possible target
sites for therapeutic agents.
6370: Advanced Pharmacology I
Cr. 3. (3-0). Coverage of basic principles of drug action including in-depth
assessments of drugs that influence the central and peripheral nervous
systems and effector tissues. Specific emphases are the sites and mechanisms
of drug action and current research procedures used to study those actions.
6371: Advanced Pharmacology II
Cr. 3. (3-0). An in-depth study of the site and mechanisms of actions
of drugs which affect the kidneys, cardiovascular and endocrine systems,
as well as current research procedures used to study those actions. Pathophysiologic
states which justify the use of these agents are discussed.
6399:7399: Master's
Thesis
Cr. 3. (0-9).
6451: Organ Physiology
Cr. 4. (4-0). Functions and mechanisms of various organ systems in the human body such as cardiovascular, renal, respiratory, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and reproductive systems; pathogenic mechanisms leading to diseases such as hypertension, heart and renal failure, and target sites for drug action will be covered in detail.
6462: Cardiovascular and Renal Pharmacology
Cr. 4. (4-0). A detailed
examination of the mechanisms of action of drugs which influence cardiovascular and renal function. Topics include interrelationship between fluid balance and blood pressure, natriuretic factors, contractile mechanisms in myocarduim, and vascular smooth muscle.
7297: Selected Topics in Pharmacology
Cr. 2-4 per semester. (2-0). Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
7333: Principals of Molecular Pharmacology
Cr. 3. (2-1). DNA structure, function and replication. RNA structure,
function and translation. Control of replication and translation as sites
for drug action. Cloning and PCR techniques, transgenic models to study
disease and drug action, methodology and theory of gene therapy.
7341: Experimental Design/Analysis
Cr. 3. (3-0). Prerequisite: consent of instructor. This course is designed
to discuss and give practical experience in the statistical methods and
experimental designs used in the pharmacological and pharmaceutical sciences.
The course includes lectures, discussions, and outside assignments.
7350: Cellular Pharmacology
Cr. 3. (3-0). Drug-receptor theory and
analysis, membrane receptors and transporters; their structure, function and regulation as it relates to drug action.
7362: Neuropharmacology
Cr. 3. (3-0). Prerequisite: consent of instructor. Physiology and pharmacology of synaptic mechanisms in the central and peripheral nervous system with emphasis on mechanisms of drug and neurotransmitter action.
7370: Scientific Writing
Cr. 3. (3-0). Prerequisite: consent of
instructor. Planning, preparation and evaluation of effective research manuscripts (articles) and grant proposals in the pharmaceutical sciences.
8198:8298:8398:8498:8598:8798:8998:
