Josset, Anne. "Suivi par thermométrie par imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM) des ablations thermiques dans les tissus mous." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Strasbourg, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024STRAD040.
Повний текст джерелаThermal ablation offers a promising alternative to traditional cancer treatment techniques, particularly due to its minimally invasive feature, which reduces morbidity and side effects. However, it requires the use of appropriate tools for real-time temperature monitoring to attest the effectiveness of the treatment and ensure the safety of the procedure. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) thermometry is recognized as the gold standard for this purpose, allowing for precise temperature mapping in aqueous tissues using the PRFS (Proton Resonance Frequency Shift) method. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of this method in fat-containing tissues requires careful evaluation. In this thesis, we developed a method to quantify the remaining fat peak signal after various fat suppression methods. This approach was assessed through both in vitro and in vivo experiments. We then evaluated the accuracy of PRFS MRI thermometry with several amounts of fat and different fat suppression methods. Our findings indicate that the residual fat signal impacts PRFS MRI temperature measurements. Consequently, a method was suggested to evaluate temperature variations without fat suppression techniques, using a water/fat separation algorithm. This approach is compatible with real-time sequences and enables accurate measurement of temperature variation in fat-containing tissues

Повний текст джерелаImproving the management of cardiac complications in metabolic diseases, obesity and diabetes, is a major challenge for our society. The measurement of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a fat depot attached to the heart, is an emerging and promising diagnosis to identify patients at risk. We developed the automation of this measurement on routine MRI images by deep learning. Then, an innovative MRI technique was proposed to measure and characterize the EAT in 3D, combining: a free-breathing acquisition, an image reconstruction robust to cardio-respiratory motion and MRI imperfections, an optimized and validated fat characterization algorithm and the knowledge of the composition of ex-vivo EAT samples. Together, this allows for in vivo, non-invasive characterization of EAT, a novel diagnosis for cardiometabolic risk

Повний текст джерелаIntroduction: Atrial fibrillation is associated with an atrial cardiomyopathy composed mainly of fibrosis and adipose tissue accumulation. However, its detection is difficult in clinical practice. Notably, there is controversy on the ability of MRI to quantify these components as well as the clinical significance of this parameter. Methods: LA strain (PLAS) was evaluated with MRI feature tracking in 13 patients 24 hours before mitral valve surgery and 13 healthy controls. Histologic correlation biopsies was available in 10 patients. Atrial samples were collected from patients who underwent cardiac surgery. Samples were fixed in formaldehyde and analyzed using 3D MRI acquisitions including T1 mapping and DIXON imaging. Samples were histologically analyzed in the same orientation used for MRI study. Results: We first studied the correlation between PLAS and atrial remodeling. PLAS was lower in patients with mitral regurgitation than in healthy subjects (P˂0.001). A strong association was found between PLAS and the degree of fibrofatty replacement evaluated by histologic analysis (r=-0.75, P=0.017). In a second study, we studied the ability of MRI to discriminate the various atrial components. High correlation was observed between T1 Mapping and histology for total r=0.93, interstitial r=0.93, and fatty fibrosis r=0.96. High correlation between DIXON and histology were found in fat r=0.98. Conclusion: PLAS correlates with the degree of fibrofatty infiltration which could be used as an imaging biomarker for the atrial cardiomyopathy. High field ex vivo MRI is able to identify the various components of the atrial myocardium; however, in vivo application remains a challenge

Повний текст джерелаIn the context of agroecological transition, the reintroduction of legume crops should play a key role in cropping system sustainability by allowing a reduction of nitrogen (N) inputs. But few references are available concerning the agronomical and ecological services provided by a wide range of legume crops, particularly within crops succession scale. Thus, the main objective of our study is to quantify the N fluxes during and after the legume crops taking into account 10 legume crops (peas, lupin, faba bean, soybean...). Our experiment consists in i) quantifying symbiotic N fixation depending on the amount of soil inorganic N, the mineralisation of N present in legume crop residues after soil incorporation and N losses outside of the soil-plant system (leaching, emission of nitrous oxide), ii) identifying plant biological traits associated to N fluxes. Thus, different N fluxes were quantified during a two-year field experiment, i.e. the first year (2014) legume crops were implanted and followed by wheat the second year (14-15) after incorportation of legume residues. This experiment was repeated in 2016-2017.In parallel, plant root traits were characterised during greenhouse hydroponic experiments

Повний текст джерелаUranium dioxide (UO2) is used as a fuel, in pressurized water nuclear reactors, in the form of pellets produced by powder metallurgy. During power transients, the center part of pellets undergoes visco-plastic deformation by creep mechanisms. These mechanisms can be partially reproduced, out of irradiation, by uniaxial compression tests at high temperature (typically 1500°C). Testing conditions and initial microstructure of the UO2 pellets influence their macroscopic mechanical behavior. At the grain scale, sub-structuring mechanisms are involved, but, up to now, the sub-structure is not quantified and the role of pores on these mechanisms is unknown. In order to provide answers to these points, two batches of pellets (L1 and L2), characterized by a similar grain size, a same volume fraction of pores, but different pores distribution (2.5 times more intra-granular pores in L1 than in L2), were elaborated. They were submitted to mechanical tests under different conditions. The result shows that L1 has as a lower creep rate than L2. Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) and Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging (ECCI) techniques were used and optimized for porous materials to analyze the evolution of the microstructure after deformation. An original EBSD methodology was implemented to detect Sub-Grain Boundaries (S-GB) with very low disorientation angles (down to 0.1°), study statistically the grain fragmentation into sub-grains and evaluate the average density of the geometrically necessary dislocations. Thanks to ECCI, the arrangement of dislocations in some S-GB was evidenced and analyzed. EBSD and ECCI complementarity allowed relating the distribution of pores within the grains and the S-GB location. The results obtained on the two batches show that the number and the linear fraction of S-GB increases with the deformation level and rate. At high deformation rates, new grains appear by a mechanism of dynamic recovery/recrystallization by rotation of sub-grains. For identical loading conditions and strain rates, the samples of batch L1 have a number and a linear fraction of S-GB that are significantly higher than those of batch L2. Furthermore, in batch L1, S-GB are located essentially in the vicinity of the grain boundaries while they are distributed throughout the grain for batch L2. These microstructural differences seem to be related to a dislocation's mean free path reduction due to the presence of intra-granular pores

"Développement de méthode dosimétrique et de quantification du volume cible par IRM multiparamétrique pour le traitement ultra-focal du cancer de la prostate en curiethérapie de grains liés d'iode-125 personnalisés."

Повний текст джерелаThe conventional treatment of localized prostate cancer, the most common cancer in men, is based on whole-gland treatment approaches and drives a significant risk of adverse effects in terms of continence and sexuality. Currently, various treatment strategies include surgery, external beam radiotherapy, or brachytherapy. However, surgical specimens have shown that in a significant proportion of patients, the risk of cancer progression is associated with a single focus of undifferentiated cancer. Therefore, treating the primary index lesion would achieve both cancer control and preservation of quality of life. Although recent developments in imaging and biopsy technologies can outline the extent of the cancer, the challenge of focusing the required precision with the treatment agent remains a daunting task, and focal treatments proposed between active surveillance of low-risk Prostate Cancer and definitive treatment of aggressive forms are still options under assessment Indeed, focal treatments raise questions that are still imperfectly resolved for an optimal clinical implementation: How to precisely define the target volume? How to focus the therapeutic agent on this target? And finally, how to monitor the rest of the gland after treatment? The aim of this thesis project is to develop and evaluate the dosimetric feasibility of an experimental ultra-focal treatment for prostate cancer using iodine-125 seeds brachytherapy and to develop a quantification method for the precise definition of the primary tumor focus using multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) imaging. To achieve this, the number and activity of I-125 seeds used for conventional prostate brachytherapy are defined based on the volume of the entire gland (approximately 2 seeds/cc). By definition, ultra-focal brachytherapy targets complex-shaped and smaller volumes, prompting us to develop a dosimetric method for implanting multiple seeds with low activity. Secondly, the precision objective in seed delivery led us to implement the sequential use of three distinct imaging systems: mpMRI to inform on the position and volume of the target, 3D transrectal ultrasound to deliver a fiducial marker into the target leveraging non-rigid fusion with mpMRI, and a 2D biplanar ultrasound probe required for treatment planning and seed placement. Finally, the evaluation of treatment quality - that is, the dose delivered to the single target as opposed to the entire gland in conventional brachytherapy - was made possible by developing a quantification method based on the precise definition of the position of the target tumor volume to be treated from mpMRI data and compared to dosimetric data obtained for each patient in the study

Повний текст джерелаThe project of this thesis mainly focuses on ectopic lipid deposition development and their flexibility following therapeutic intervention. In our first study, we set out chronological order of ectopic fat onset and cardiac abnormalities in a high fat high sucrose mice model. Short duration exendin-4 treatment reverses every altered parameter. In the second study, we assessed treatment of obesity effect on cardiac ectopic fat deposition (EAT and steatosis), as well as hepatic and pancreatic fat at two different time points (6 months and 32 months) after bariatric surgery. We show significant reduction of every ectopic fat deposition, however in different kinetic. Finally, in a third study, we investigate birth weight effect on epicardial adipose tissue development. This study demonstrate important EAT accumulation in adulthood when birth weight is increased. Furthermore, birth weight and catch up growth in childhood between 2 and 12 years parameters impact significantly the development of epicardial fat.In summary, these results provide better understanding of ectopic fat deposition development and modulation

Повний текст джерелаWith a steadily increasing prevalence, type II diabetes is becoming a major public health issue. This pathology is characterized by an increase of the hepatic glucose production, reflecting a raise of gluconeogenesis, which evolves into chronic hyperglycemia. Liver is thus a privileged target to fight against imbalances of glucose metabolism. A new drug derived from the Metformin and devoid of side effects, the E008, was synthesized by Merck-Santé to normalize blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. The dual objective of our work consisted in (i) studying liver metabolic fluxes in a nutritional rat model which exhibits a metabolic syndrome, and (ii) analysing the effects of this new compound while elucidating its mechanisms of action. Animals fed a high-fat diet have an increased gluconeogenesis, associated with disturbances of the mitochondrial function: increase of ROS production, inhibition of oxygen consumption and changes in redox potential. A common denominator in these events could be a mutual alteration of the composition of membrane lipids and quinones. On rats fed with a high-fat diet, E008 treatment decreases the hepatic glucose output by modifying metabolic control. Furthermore, it induces a subtle inhibition of cellular respiration while acting, at the same time, on the respiratory chain activity and phosphorylating system. (Inhibition of complex I and ANT reduced expression). Its action is also related to an activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), by modification of adenine nucleotides ratios

Повний текст джерелаDue to an increase of the automotive weight, the energy to be dissipated by brakes is more significant ; therefore, it leads to a rise of working temperature for the ball bearings. In the same time, new chemistries as the polyurea greases grow up on the US and EU market. These new formulations are supposed to answer to certain requirements which are precisely claimed by the automotive industry. The aim of this study is to decompose the behaviour of the grease in a ball bearing from the beginning to the end of its lifetime. The use of a ball on disc tribometer simulating the EHL regime that occurs in a bearing makes it possible. The behaviour of grease can be described by three stages. Firstly, the bearing operates in fully flooded regime. By coupling rheological and spectrometric investigations with film thickness measurement, it has been possible to determine the composition of the grease lubricating film. The second stge is the starved regime which is characterised by lower film thicknesses and a particular supply mechanism based on capillaries forces. We have developed an innovative approach based on the static used of the ball on disc device : it allows us to advance several assumptions on the supply of lubricant : either homogeneous fluid or impregnation of a porous media with lubricating phasis. Then, it gets out that the capillary flow deduced from the experiments is representative of the lifespan of this second stage. Finally, the third and last stage utilizes the reaction of additives withe surfaces when all the lubricant is consumed : on speaks of tribochemicals mechanisms

Повний текст джерелаMedvetenheten kring modellrisk har ökat på grund av ökad användning av modeller vid värdering av finansiella instrument samt deras ökande komplexitet. Dessutom begär nu regulatorer att institutioner ska beräkna samt redogöra för modellrisk. Trots detta finns ännu ingen bransch eller marknadsstandard när det kommer till hur modellrisk bör kvantifieras. Syftet med projektet är att hitta och implementera en metod som kan användas för att kvantifiera modellrisk samt utvärdera denna baserat på effektivitet, noggrannhet och generaliserbarhet. I den här uppsatsen har flera olika tillvägagångssätt i litteraturen för att kvantifiera modellrisk utvärderats med slutsatsen att befintliga metoder i allmänhet varken är effektiva, korrekta eller generaliserbara. Däremot, genom att kombinera två av de befintliga metoderna i litteraturen och använda data om motpartsvärderingar kan en annan metod för att kvantifiera modellrisken konstrueras. Denna metod implementeras och backtestas och den visar sig vara noggrann, generaliserbar och effektivare än de alternativa metoderna vilket var vad som eftersöktes. Vidare kan denna metod också tjäna i modellvalidering som ett medel för att bedöma hur väl värderingar från en viss modell överensstämmer med marknadens värderingar samt för att jämföra värderingsmodeller med varandra. En begränsning som kan identifieras för denna metod är att om det finns få motparter till en värderingsmodell, säg 1 eller 2, är metoden som används i denna uppsats inte lämplig för att kvantifiera modellrisk.

This dissertation presents three studies based on the hypothesis that the domain of entities on which natural language interpretation relies includes a partially ordered sub-domain of events. In this sub-domain, we can identify singular and plural elements, the latter being characterizable as mereological sums having singular events as their minimal parts. I discuss how event variables ranging over pluralities are introduced in the logical representation of natural languages sentences and how event operators manipulate these variables. Logical representations are read off syntactic structures, and among the elements I will claim are hidden in the syntactic representation of certain sentences are plural definite descriptions of events and event quantifiers selectively binding plural variables. My goal will be to motivate the postulation of these elements by showing how reference to pluralities of events shed light on several properties of a variety of constructions, and how interpretive differences originated in singular/plural oppositions overtly manifested in the nominal domain are replicated in the aspectual/verbal domain, even in the absence of any overt morphological manifestation.
(cont.) The empirical domain of investigation includes adverbial quantification, donkey anaphora and imperfective aspect, with both habitual and progressive readings being analyzed in detail.

Повний текст джерелаSoftware development is a highly dynamic process, primarily caused by its foundation in the dynamic human world. Requirements traceability alleviates the detrimental effects of this dynamism by providing increased control over the artifacts of the software development processes and their interrelationships. This thesis investigates how an RT tool should be designed and implemented in order to assist with the tasks of requirements traceability, and outlines a tool that primarily focuses on reducing the work overhead associated with the tasks of implementing requirements traceability in software development projects. Preparatory to the development of the RT tool, the applicability of the traceability models presented in the in-depth study has been confirmed through empirical work. A detailed representation of the models has been compiled, elaborating on the internal representation of artifacts and traces. The models were extended to be able to represent organisational hierarchies, enabling trace information analysis to deduce the context of important decisions throughout the software development processes, an important tool in understanding how requirements are determined. The thesis presents a requirements specification and architecture with a firm foundation in the findings of the in-depth study, outlining an RT tool that addresses important issues concerning the implementation of requirements traceability, in particular focusing on reducing the associated work overhead. Based on the requirements specification and architecture, a evolutionary prototype is developed, giving its users an impression of the functionality of the outlined RT tool. The prototype addresses the issues pointed out by the requirements specification and architectural description, and, throughout development, attention is given the evolvability of the prototype. Consequently, the prototype provides a good foundation for the future development of a complete RT tool.

Повний текст джерелаAs a first exercise, a test system of xanthate adsorption onto lead sulphide minerals was studied. A survey of possible calibration standards (pure xanthate, a synthetic lead-xanthate, galena (PbS) and a lead sulphide ore conditioned with xanthate) resulted in linear curves for all four cases. The quantification of isopropyl xanthate adsorption onto batch flotation products (concentrate and tail) was used to determine that ore standards gave the most accurate results.
The technique was also tested for quantification of adsorbed amines. Two collectors, dodecylamine and diphenylguanidine, and a depressant, triethylenetetramine, were studied. A common calibration curve was prepared using diphenylguanidine adsorbed on Inco matte. Results show that the HAGIS technique can easily be used to quantify adsorbed amines.
It is concluded that the HAGIS technique is a powerful new tool for the quantitative determination of adsorbed reagents. The xanthate study showed the use of ores as standards produces the best calibration. The amine study introduced the possibility of analyzing reagent mixtures.

Повний текст джерелаUne méthode optimisée d'extraction assistée par micro-ondes (EAMO), en conjonction avec l'analyse par chromatographie liquide de haute performance, est proposée pour la quantification de lignanes, de façon généralisée, dans des échantillons des graines de lin et des aliments d'origine végétale. La méthode nécessite l'hydrolyse des échantillons de 0.5 - 1.6 g avec 50 ml de NaOH 0.5 M en appliquant 156 W (niveau de puissance estimé par calibration calorimétrique) de façon intermittente (30 s marche/arrêt) pour 3 min. La température finale des extraits était de 67°C. La méthode EAMO extrait les lignanes des matrices végétales complètement, avec exactitude (récupération de 97.5 %), avec efficacité (rendements de 21.4 et 26.6 % plus hauts que ceux obtenus avec des méthodes conventionnelles), et avec précision (coefficients de variation pour analyses répétées < 4.03 %).Une méthode d'hydrolyse enzymatique (HE), complémentaire pour la méthode EAMO, a été développée pour la quantification généralisée des lignanes aglycones dans des échantillons végétaux. La méthode HE nécessite l'hydrolyse des extraits, obtenus par EAMO, qui contient 100 mg d'échantillons dans 3 ml de solution tampon d'acétate de sodium (0.01 M, pH 5), avec des solutions d'enzyme β-glucuronidase en concentrations de ≥ 40 U d'enzyme/mg échantillon dépendant de la capacité d'hydrolyse des différents lots d'enzymes), par incubation a 37°C pour 48 h. Les lignanes glucosides sont hydrolysés en proportion de 95.6 %. La méthode HE est recommandée pour construire des bases des données des contenus en lignanes des aliments, qui sont utiles aux chercheurs en santé et nutrition qui cherchent à évaluer les effets des apports nutritionnels des lignanes sur la santé humaine. Des modèles de réseaux de neurones artificiels (RNA) et de régression par les moindres carrés partiels (MCP), qui sont complémentaires pour la méthode EAMO, ont été calibrés pour la quantification généralisée des lignanes dans une variété d'échantillons de graines de lin. Les valeurs des lignanes estimées avec les modèles RNA et MCP ont été dans des écarts de ± 0.67 jusqu'à 4.85 % des valeurs de référence des lignanes. L'utilisation de modèles RNA et MCP nécessite d'effectuer des tests de Folin-Ciocalteu afin de mesurer l'absorption de la lumière UV-Vis des extraits a 289, 298, 343, et 765 nm. Ces modèles sont utiles aux industries de transformations des graines de lin pour quantifier avec rapidité et précision les niveaux de lignanes dans les différentes sources de matières premières à base de graines de lin.Une méthode non-automatisée, abordable et précise d'extraction sur phase solide (EPS) a été développée afin de purifier des extraits de graines de lin produits par EAMO. La méthode nécessite la préparation des extraits avant la EPS par ajustement du pH à deux reprises; premièrement au pH 3 avec de l'acide sulfurique pour enlever, par précipitation, les protéines et les hydrates de carbone qui sont solubles dans l'eau; et, deuxièmement au pH 5 avec de l'hydroxyde de soude pour améliorer la rétention des lignanes en phase solide par l'entonnoir EPS afin de réduire les pertes de lignanes dans l'eau de lavage. Des extraits produits par EAMO à partir de 0.6 et 1.5 g de farine de graines de lin dégraissée peuvent être purifiés par EPS afin de récupérer 71.2 et 60.6 %, respectivement, de la quantité des lignanes utilisée pour la purification, dans les liquides d'élution des10, 20 et 30 % d'éthanol mis en commun. Des extraits purifiés par EPS peuvent être utilisés pour tester la capacité antioxydante et la stabilité des extraits des lignanes durant leur entreposage dans des conditions variées.

The needs and impacts of drug administration have evolved from a systemic to a local focus. Local drug delivery would allow a higher local drug concentration at lower systemic toxicity than what can be achieved if delivered systemically. One of the tissues of interest for local delivery is the heart, or myocardium. Increasingly, clinicians are looking to direct myocardial delivery for therapy of complex cardiovascular diseases. Yet, there is little quantitative data on the rates of macromolecular transport inside the myocardium. A porcine model was used in this work as it is most closely similar to humans in size, structure and morphology. Using a technique previously developed in this laboratory to quantify the distribution of macromolecules, the delivery of compounds directly into the myocardium was evaluated. To make quantification generic and not specific for a particular drug or compound, fluorescent-labeled 20kDa and 150kDa dextrans were used to simulate small and large diffusing macromolecules. Diffusion in the myocardium in two directions, transmural and cross-sectional, were investigated to look at diffusion of compounds along and against the myocardium fiber orientation. Fluorescent microscopy was used to quantify concentration profiles, and then the data was fit to a simple diffusion model to calculate diffusivities. This validated the technique developed. The diffusivities of 20kDa dextran in the transmural and cross-sectional direction were calculated to be 9.49 ± 2.71 um2/s and 20.12 ± 4.10 um2/s respectively. The diffusivities for 150kDa were calculated to be 2.39 ± 1.86um 2/s and 3.23 ± 1.76um2/s respectively. The diffusivities of the two macromolecules were statistically different (p < 0.02 for transmural direction and p < 0.01 for cross-section direction). While the diffusion for the larger macromolecule was isotropic, it was not the case for the smaller one. The calculated diffusivity values in the myocardium correlated with previously published data for dextran in the arterial media, suggesting that the transport properties of the myocardium and arterial media may be similar. Applications of quantitative macromolecular transport may include developing novel therapies for cardiovascular diseases in the future.

However, metabolic systems have mechanisms to keep them dynamically and structurally stable in the face of these changes. In addition, metabolic systems also cope with large changes in the uxes through the pathways, not letting metabolite concentrations vary wildly. Quantitative measures have previously been proposed for "metabolic regulation", using the quantitative framework of Metabolic Control Analysis. However, the term "regulation" is so loosely used so that its content is mostly lost. These di erent measures of regulation have also not been applied to a model and comparably investigated prior to this study. Hence, this study analyses the usefulness of the di erent quantitative measures in answering di erent types of regulatory questions. Thus, the aim of this study was to distinguish the above mentioned aspects of metabolic regulation and to nd appropriate quantitative measures for each, namely dynamic stability, structurally stability, and homeostasis. Dynamic stability is the property of a steady state to return to its original state after a perturbation in a metabolite in the system, and can be analysed in terms of self and internal-response coe cients. Structural stability is concerned with the change in steady state after a perturbation of a parameter in the system, and can be analysed in terms of concentration-response coe cients. Furthermore, it is shown that control patterns are useful in understanding which system properties determine structural stability and to what degree. Homeostasis is de ned as the change in the steady-state concentration of a metabolite relative to the change in the steady-state ux through the metabolite pool following a perturbation in a system parameter, and co-response coe cients are proposed as quantitative measures of homeostasis. More speci cally, metabolite-ux coresponse coe cients allow the de nition of an index that quanti es to which degree a metabolite is homeostatically regulated. A computational model of a simple linear metabolic sequence subject to feedback inhibition with di erent sets of parameters provided a test-bed for the quantitative analysis of metabolic regulation. Log-log rate characteristics and parameter portraits of steady-state variables, as well as response and elasticity coe cients were used to analyse the steady-state behaviour and control properties of the system. This study demonstrates the usefulness of generic models based on proper enzyme kinetics to further our understanding of metabolic behaviour, control and regulation and has laid the groundwork for future studies of metabolic regulation of more complex core models or of models of real systems.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Metaboliese sisteme is oop sisteme wat gedurig blootgestel word aan `n uktuerende omgewing. Hierdie uktuasies lei tot veranderinge in beide interne veranderlikes en parameters van metaboliese sisteme. Metaboliese sisteme besit egter meganismes om dinamies en struktureel stabiel te bly. Verder verseker hierdie meganismes ook dat die konsentrasies van interne metaboliete relatief konstant bly ten spyte van groot veranderinge in uksie deur die metaboliese pad waarvan hierdie metaboliete deel vorm. Kwantitatiewe maatstawwe is voorheen voorgestel vir "metaboliese regulering", gebaseer op die raamwerk van Metaboliese Kontrole Analise. Die onkritiese gebruik van die term "regulering" ontneem egter hierdie konsep van sinvolle betekenis. Voor hierdie studie is die voorgestelde maatstawwe van regulering nog nie toegepas op 'n model ten einde hulle met mekaar te vergelyk nie. Die huidige studie ondersoek die toepaslikheid van die verskillende maatstawwe om verskillende tipe vrae oor regulering te beantwoord. Die doelwit van hierdie studie was om aspekte van metaboliese regulering, naamlik dinamiese stabiliteit, strukturele stabiliteit en homeostase, te onderskei, asook om 'n gepaste maatstaf vir elk van die verskillende aspekte te vind. Dinamiese stabiliteit is 'n eienskap van 'n bestendige toestand om terug te keer na die oorspronklike toestand na perturbasie van die konsentrasie van 'n interne metaboliet. Hierdie aspek van regulering kan in terme van interne respons en self-respons koeffi siente geanaliseer word. Strukturele stabiliteit van 'n bestendige toestand beskryf die mate van verandering van die bestendige toestand nadat 'n parameter van die sisteem geperturbeer is, en kan in terme van konsentrasie-responskoeffisiente geanaliseer word. Verder wys hierdie studie dat kontrole patrone van nut is om vas te stel watter eienskappe van 'n sisteem die strukturele stabiliteit bepaal en tot watter mate. Homeostase word gede finieer as die verandering in die konsentrasie van 'n interne metaboliet relatief tot die verandering in die uksie deur daardie metaboliese poel nadat 'n parameter van die sisteem verander het. Vir die analise van hierdie aspek van regulering word ko-responskoe ffisiente as 'n maatstaf voorgestel. Meer spesi ek kan metaboliet- uksie ko-responskoeff siente gebruik word om `n indeks te de nieer wat meet tot watter mate 'n metaboliet homeostaties gereguleer word. 'n Rekenaarmatige model van 'n eenvoudige lineere metaboliese sekwens wat onderhewig is aan terugvoer inhibisie is gebruik om die verskillende aspekte van metaboliese regulering kwantitatief te analiseer met vier verskillende stelle parameters. Dubbel-logaritmiese snelheidskenmerke en parameter portrette van bestendige toestandsveranderlikes, asook van respons- en elastisiteit koeffisente is gebruik om die bestendige toestandsgedrag en kontrole eienskappe van die sisteem te analiseer. Hierdie studie demonstreer die nut van generiese modelle wat op korrekte ensiemkinetika gebaseer is om ons verstaan van metaboliese gedrag, kontrole en regulering te verdiep. Verder dien hierdie studie as grondslag vir toekomstige studies van metaboliese regulering van meer ingewikkelde kernmodelle of modelle van werklike sisteme.
