    A self-regulating insulin delivery system using conA-insulin was analyzed. Mathematical modeling identified key factors influencing insulin release for improved device design.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Chemical Engineering
    • Diabetes Technology

    Background:

    • Diabetes management requires precise insulin delivery.
    • Existing systems lack autonomous glucose responsiveness.
    • A self-regulating insulin delivery (SRID) system offers a potential solution.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To theoretically analyze a self-regulating insulin delivery (SRID) system.
    • To determine reaction rate constants for the conA-insulin interaction.
    • To predict insulin release rates based on glucose concentration changes.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized published in vitro data for theoretical analysis.
    • Developed a mathematical model of the SRID system.
    • Calculated forward and reverse reaction rate constants for conA-insulin binding.

    Main Results:

    • Quantified reaction rate constants for the glucose-conA-insulin interaction.
    • Predicted insulin release rates from a cylindrical SRID pouch.
    • Identified diffusivity coefficients, pouch radius, membrane permeability, and kinetic constants as key influencers.

    Conclusions:

    • Mathematical analysis provides crucial insights into SRID system dynamics.
    • Identified parameters are critical for the rational design of effective SRID devices.
    • This work facilitates the development of improved, glucose-responsive insulin delivery systems.
