  1. 1. Modeling of metabolic insulin signaling in adipocytes

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Erik Ulfhielm; [2006]
    Keywords : identifiability; insulin signaling; systems biology;

    Abstract : Active insulin receptors (IR) phosphorylate insulin receptor substrate (IRS), but it is not clear whether IRS is phosphorylated mainly by IR at the plasma membrane or by internalized IR in the cytosol. In this thesis, structural identifiability analysis and parameter sensitivity analysis is performed for models of the first steps in the metabolic insulin signaling pathway. READ MORE
