Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycogenesis

Curriculum Unit: 3. Carbohydrate metabolism:

This study module covers "Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycogenesis", an integral component of the Year 1 Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D) curriculum under Medicinal Biochemistry (Carbohydrate metabolism). Designed for clinical pharmacy scholars, the syllabus emphasizes mechanistic understanding, clinical relevance, and high-yield examination competencies.

Upon reviewing this syllabus topic, Pharm.D students are expected to demonstrate proficiency in:

• Understand fundamental chemical mechanisms, functional pathways, and molecular principles of Glycogenolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycogenesis.
• Examine analytical methodologies, instrumentation, and validation protocols applicable to Carbohydrate metabolism.
• Interpret diagnostic indices, assay metrics, and laboratory findings in clinical pharmacy.
