<title>Model Structure</title>
<para>
Neuroendocrine systems usually communicate via intermitent (pulsatile) rather than continuous (steady state) signal exchange. Hormone pulses transmit information to target tissues, for example the secretion patterns of growth hormone (GH) influence body size, lipoprotein metabolism, and insulin sensitivity. Pulsatile hormone secretion is controlled by integrative feedback mechanisms. Focusing, in particular, on GH; its secretion is stimulated by GH-releasing hormone (GHRH), is enhanced by ghrelin (GHS), and is inhibited by somatostatin (SRIF). GH feeds back into this system by regulating each of the GHRH (inhibited), SRIF (stimulated), and GHS (repressed) receptors.
</para>
<para>
The considerable complexity of neuroendocrine systems has provided an incentive for researchers to try to capture their characteristics in mathematical models. In their 2007 model, Farhy, Bowers and Veldhuis aim to explain how GHRH, SRIF, GHS and GH interact to control GH dynamics (see <xref linkend="fig_reaction_diagram"/> below). Interestingly, there are sex-based differences in the pathophysiology of GH secretion: for example, the the GH pulse amplitude is two-fold greater in women than in men, while GH secretory patterns are more disorderly in women compared with in men. These sex-based differences are addressed by Farhy <emphasis>et al.</emphasis> and the two CellML models are specific to males (version 2) and females (version 2 variant 1).

<caption>A schematic diagram of the primary interconnections assumed among growth hormone (GH), growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH), somatostatin (SRIF) in the periventricular nucleus (SRIF PeV) and arcuate nucleus (SRIF ArC), growth hormone secretagogues (GHS) and GH feedback in the human. The small green arrows denote greater potency (P) or efficacy (E) in women compared with men.</caption>

<para>
Please note this particular version of the model is specific to females and also GHRH alone is being injected. To simulate the injection of GHS and L-arginine the CellML model will have to be adapted slightly - this is relatively simple to do and will require changing a few initial conditions and parameters.

<rdf:value>Fixed a couple of equations, checked and corrected the units such that they are now correct and are consistent, and I added a stimulus to the model (in accordance with the stimulus described in the original publication). The model runs in PCEnv and COR to give the published results, but I can't get the model to oscillate because I haven't been able to include the time delays in the CellML code.</rdf:value>
