Description
Molecular mechanisms of metabolism • Macronutrients and micronutrients
• Digestion, absorption • Regulation of metabolic processes • The role of
microelement in physiological and pathophysiological processes Molecular
processes in different organ systems and complex connections between them
• Molecular processes in skeletal and heart muscle, gut, liver, adipose tissue,
brain, bones • Communication between tissues – paracrine factors, hormones,
extracellular vesicles • Immune system and inflammation Gut Microbiota • The
role of nutrients on the variety of bacterial cultures • Gut-brain axes • The
influence of exercise on microbiota and vice versa • Microbiota and immune
system Regulation of metabolic processes during exercise and in different
dietary protocols • Usage of energents in high intensity and endurance exercise
• Increasing sport performance with food • Low fat, low carb diet, Mediterranean
diet and other dietary protocols Metabolic processes under specific
circumstances • Intensive physical activity • Stress • Obesity • Metabolic
syndrome, diabetes • Development of chronic conditions • Feeding disorder
• Aging Nutrition, exercise and DNA-metabolism • Gene expression regulation
• Epigenetics • Oxidative stress and DNA damage • DNA-repair mechanisms
Neurogenesis • Neuroprotective effects of physical activity • Role of macro-
and microelements in neurogenesis • Effects on cognitive performance State of
the art methodology in research of molecular mechanisms
