sex differences in organs

How are men and women different physiologically? 

A video that focuses on sex differences in kidney function.

A review, His and her mathematical models of physiological systems

We have published sex-specific models for the rat kidney (this one too) and for the human kidney as well.

We also published sex-specific models for the renin-angiotensin system and blood pressure regulation (this one too).

 

Pregnant rat kidney functionThe fetus needs to grow. How do the kidneys adapt to the markedly increased demands?

A video that summarizes those changes and explains the functional implications.

Here is the modeling study behind that video.

We also published a review on mathematical models of physiological systems in pregnancy.


ageing mouse clock sirtAm I more likely to get an infection in the morning or evening? What is the best time to take my meds? What if I am a shift-worker?

For answers, check out this video.

Here is the modeling study behind that video.

Your circadian clock and metabolism change as you age, and that affects when you should take your meds to maximize efficacy. Find out more in our study.

 

 

AMPK and cancerAMPK, friend or foe in cancer?

It is complicated... check out this video.

Here is the modeing study behind that video. And a press release.

 

 

mTORC/AMPK/SIRT signaling networkLet's learn more about the key players in the management of metabolic stress and energy balance in mammals.

Here is a model of metabolic signaling pathways involving mTOR, AMPK, and sirtuins, and the accompanying video.
