Oxidation, pathologies and aging

The seminar aims to establish and explain the existing correlation between the processes related to the so-called oxidative stress and the physiological process of aging, both healthy and pathological, suggesting, in addition, strategies for the design of tools for the prevention of said pathological aging. Objectives: * Clarify oxidation concept (origin) and the theory oxi-inflammatory aging. * Description of the physiological free radical model (ROS). Mechanisms of action. Types of human body oxidative modifications. * Establish Oxidative stress and diseases. How does tissue damage produce oxidative stress? * Clarify: Does it really make sense to talk about oxidative stress in the aging process?. Establish the closely relation between oxidation and aging pathologies. * Evaluation of potential nutritional interactions with the aging process: nutrition as a preventive tool. * Definition of a new strategic action: the chronic pathologies are mostly multifactorial character reason why it is reasonable to face their prevention through a multifactorial approach. * Description of the different mechanisms / strategies for the prevention of degenerative pathologies related to the physiological cascade of oxidative stress.

1. There is access to these seminars through Portal del Doctorando, activity Seminarios de Investigación (Research seminars). There are three blocks (Ciencias Médicas - Medical Sciences, Nutrición y Tecnología Alimentaria- Nutrition and Food technology, and Inglés- English language) to choose seven seminars from any of these three blocks. 2. Seminars could be carried out at any time (before the deadline stablished by EIDUCAM). 3. For each seminar, students must view the recording and the PDF presentation. After this, two tasks must be accomplished: * A test questionnaire. Once it is filled in and sent, it will be corrected automatically. Only if all the questions are answered correctly (there will be five attempts to achieve it), there will be acces to the next task. * Write and submit a report in PDF format about the content of the seminar. This report will consist in an aproximately 600 words summary and must include three bibliographic references (as Vancouver or APA Recommendations) related to the Seminar subject area. 4. The responsible person of this activity will correct the report and qualification (0/10, if failed or 10/10 if pass) will be published. If it is failed, the student must read the observations, repeat the report and sent it again before the deadline (unlimited sending). 5. Once the evaluation is finished, a certificate will be sent for each passed seminar. The student must load the certificate to the corresponding activity in LAUREA, and it will be validated by his/her tutor.
