The Effect of Different Forms for the Delay in A Model of the Nephron

We investigate how the dynamics of a mathematical modelof a nephron depend on the precise form of the delayin the tubuloglomerular feedback loop.Although qualitative behavioral similarities emerge fordifferent orders of delay, wefind that significant quantitative differences occur.Without more knowl...

description We investigate how the dynamics of a mathematical modelof a nephron depend on the precise form of the delayin the tubuloglomerular feedback loop.Although qualitative behavioral similarities emerge fordifferent orders of delay, wefind that significant quantitative differences occur.Without more knowledge of theform of the delay, this places restrictions on howreasonable it is to expect closequantitative agreement between the mathematicalmodel and experimental data.
