Mathematical modeling of the
glucose–insulin system. is a paper that organizes several models for the glucose-insulin system.
Excerpts
The glucose–insulin system offers one of
the clearest and simplest examples of homeostatic control in the organism.
Essentially a single hormone (insulin) is secreted by the β-cells of the pancreas
in response to rising glucose concentrations (hyperglycemia).
A number of hormones contribute to rescuing the
organism from hypoglycemia (adrenalin, glucagon, growth hormone, cortisol).
