A model for the dynamics of human weight cycling.


Description

This model is according to the paper of A model for the dynamics of human weight cycling by A. Goldbeter 2006.The figure3 (A) and (B) have been reproduced by Copasi 4.0.19(development) and SBMLodeSolver.The writer of the paper did not specify any units for the metabolites, so the creator of the model did not define the units as well.Both Q and R are normalized to vary between 0 and 1.

A model of gonadotropin regulation during the menstrual cycle in women: qualitative features


Description

Abstract: Increasing concerns that environmental contaminants may disrupt the endocrine system require development of mathematical tools to predict the potential for such compounds to significantly alter human endocrine function. The endocrine system is largely self-regulating, compensating for moderate changes in dietary phytoestrogens (e.g., in soy products) and normal variations in physiology. However, severe changes in dietary or oral exposures or in health status (e.g., anorexia) , can completely disrupt the menstrual cycle in women. Thus, risk assessment tools should account for normal regulation and its limits. We present a mathematical model for the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in women as a function of estrogen, progesterone, and inhibin blood levels. The model reproduces the time courses of LH and FSH during the menstrual cycle and correctly predicts observed effects of administered estrogen and progesterone on LH and FSH during clinical studies. The model should be useful for predicting effects of hormonally active substances, both in the pharmaceutical sciences and in toxicology and risk assessment.
