Abstract:
A systems approach to elucidate the effect of infection on cell metabolism provides several opportunities from a better understanding of molecular mechanisms to the identification of potential biomarkers and drug targets. This is obvious from the fact that we have witnessed the accelerated use of computational systems biology in the last five years to study metabolic changes in pathogen and/or host cells in response to infection. In this chapter, we aim to present a comprehensive review of the recent research by focusing on genome-scale metabolic network models of pathogen-host systems and genome-wide metabolomics and fluxomics analysis of infected cells.

Computed Tomography
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
First Order Systems
When a first-order system is subjected to a unit-step input, its response is characterized by its transfer function. By applying the Laplace transform of the unit-step input to the transfer function, expanding the...
