Regulation of Food Intake01:30

Regulation of Food Intake

3.2K
Short-term regulation of food intake primarily involves neural signals from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, blood nutrient levels, and GI tract hormones. Communication between the gut and brain via vagal nerve fibers plays a significant role in evaluating the contents of the gut. Clinical studies have shown that protein ingestion produces a more prolonged response in these nerve fibers compared to an equivalent amount of glucose. Additionally, the activation of stretch receptors caused by GI...

Mechanistic Models: Compartment Models in Individual and Population Analysis

340
Mechanistic models are utilized in individual analysis using single-source data, but imperfections arise due to data collection errors, preventing perfect prediction of observed data. The mathematical equation involves known values (Xi), observed concentrations (Ci), measurement errors (εi), model parameters (ϕj), and the related function (ƒi) for i number of values. Different least-squares metrics quantify differences between predicted and observed values. The ordinary least...

Incomplete Dominance01:43

Incomplete Dominance

32.8K
Gregor Mendel's work (1822 - 1884) was primarily focused on pea plants. Through his initial experiments, he determined that every gene in a diploid cell has two variants called alleles inherited from each parent. He suggested that amongst these two alleles, one allele is dominant in character and the other recessive. The combination of alleles determines the phenotype of a gene in an organism.

Model Approaches for Pharmacokinetic Data: Physiological Models

355
Physiological models in pharmacokinetics are instrumental in understanding the distribution and elimination of drugs within the body. These models describe the drug concentration within target organs, influenced by factors such as drug uptake, tissue volume, and blood flow. Drug uptake is governed by the partition coefficient, which signifies the drug concentration ratio in tissue to that in the blood. The blood flow rate to a specific tissue is expressed as Qt, and the rate of change in tissue...

Pharmacokinetic Models: Overview

2.8K
Pharmacokinetic models utilize mathematical analysis to achieve a detailed quantitative understanding of a drug's life cycle within the body. They are instrumental in simulating a drug's pharmacokinetic parameters, predicting drug concentrations over time, optimizing dosage regimens, linking concentrations with pharmacologic activity, and estimating potential toxicity.
There are three primary types of models: empirical, compartment, and physiological. Empirical models, with minimal...

Pharmacodynamic Models: Additive and Proportional Drug Effect Model

Drug response models describe how pharmacological agents interact with biological systems to produce measurable effects. Baseline responses are inherent physiological activities without a drug significantly influencing the observed pharmacological outcomes. Depending on the drug response model employed, these baseline responses may combine with the drug's effect in either an additive or proportional manner.Additive Drug Response ModelIn the additive model, the drug effect is independent of the...

    Summary

    Structured antedependence (SAD) and character process (CPr) models better fit longitudinal feed intake data than random regression (RR) models. SAD and CPr models offer more accurate genetic parameter estimation and stable future performance predictions for animal breeding.

    Area of Science:

    • Animal Science
    • Quantitative Genetics
    • Statistical Modeling

    Background:

    • Automated data collection for individual feed intake (FI) and body weight (BW) is increasingly available in livestock.
    • Genetic analysis of longitudinal data requires appropriate statistical models to capture complex covariance structures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the performance of character process (CPr), structured antedependence (SAD), and random regression (RR) models for analyzing longitudinal FI data.
    • To evaluate how these models estimate genetic parameters and predict future animal performance across species.

    Main Methods:

    • Application of CPr, SAD, and RR mixed-effects models to longitudinal FI data from rabbits, ducks, and pigs.
    • Assessment of model fit, estimation of genetic and phenotypic correlations, and evaluation of prediction accuracy for future phenotypes.

    Main Results:

    • SAD and CPr models demonstrated superior fit to the data compared to RR models across all species.
    • Genetic and phenotypic correlation estimates were consistent between SAD and CPr models, but not with RR.
    • SAD and RR models provided more stable predictions of future phenotypes compared to the CPr model.

    Conclusions:

    • The structured antedependence (SAD) model is highly suitable for analyzing repeated feed intake measurements, offering benefits for genetic selection and real-time animal management.
    • SAD and CPr models accurately capture the decrease in correlations over time, while SAD and RR models ensure stable future performance predictions.
