Dynamic modeling of biological systems is essential for understanding all properties of a given organism as it allows us to look not only at the static picture of an organism but also at its behavior under various conditions. With the increasing amount of experimental data, the number of tools that enable dynamic analysis also grows. However, various tools are based on different approaches, use different types of data and offer different functions for analyses; so it can be difficult to choose the most suitable tool for a selected type of model. Here, we bring a brief overview containing descriptions of 50 tools for the reconstruction of biological models, their time-course simulation and dynamic analysis. We examined each tool using test data and divided them based on the qualitative and quantitative nature of the mathematical apparatus they use.

Understanding cytokine-related therapeutic protein-drug interactions (TP-DI) is crucial for effective medication management in conditions characterized by elevated inflammatory responses. Recent FDA and ICH guidelines highlight a systematic, risk-based approach for evaluating these interactions, emphasizing the need for a thorough mechanistic understanding of TP-DIs. This study integrates the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for TP (specifically interleukin-6, IL-6) with small-molecule drug PBPK models to elucidate cytokine-related TP-DI mechanistically.

Magnetoreception, the ability to sense magnetic fields, is widespread in animals but remains poorly understood. The leading model links this ability in migratory birds to the photo-activation of the protein cryptochrome. Magnetic information is thought to induce structural changes in cryptochrome via a transient radical pair intermediate.

: Despite the known impact of propofol and remifentanil on hemodynamics and patient outcomes, there is a lack of comprehensive quantitative analysis, particularly in surgical settings, considering the influence of noxious stimuli. The aim of this study was to develop a quantitative semi-mechanistic population model that characterized the time course changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) due to the effects of propofol, remifentanil, and different types of noxious stimulation related to the clinical routine. : Data from a prospective study were used; the study analyzed the effects of propofol and remifentanil general anesthesia on female patients in physical status of I-II according to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA I-II) undergoing gynecology surgery.

Membrane fouling is a common and complex challenge with cell culture perfusion process in biopharmaceutical manufacturing that can have detrimental effects on the process performance. In this study, we evaluated a method to calculate the hollow fiber membrane resistance at different time points for water and supernatant. In addition, the number of subvisible particles of < 200 nm.

Aims: This study aims to evaluate the exposure-efficacy relationship of nilotinib and longitudinal BCR::ABL1 levels in patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) and those who are imatinib-resistant or intolerant using a semimechanistic disease model.

Methods: The analysis included 489 CML-CP patients from 3 nilotinib trials (NCT00109707; NCT00471497; NCT01043874) with duration of follow-up ranging from 2 to 9 years. The semimechanistic disease model of CML-CP consisted of quiescent leukaemic stem cells, proliferating drug-susceptible and -resistant bone marrow cells.
