Abstract
A kinetic model describing the pulse of increased oxygen concentrations and the subsequent changes in the concentration of N-acetylaspartate in the excited nervous tissue of the human brain in response to an external signal is presented. The model is based on biochemical data, a multistage and nonlinear dynamic process the BOLD signal and N-acetylaspartate. The existence of multiple steady states explains the triggering effect of the system. The inhibitory effect of the substrate is a necessary factor for the autostabilization of N-acetylaspartate. The kinetic model allows the dynamic behavior of previously unmeasurable metabolites, namely, products of the hydrolysis of N-acetylaspartate, such as acetic and aspartic acid, and glutamic acid to be predicted. Kinetic modeling of the BOLD signal and the subsequent hydrolysis of N-acetylaspartate provides information about the biochemical and dynamic characteristics of some pathological conditions (schizophrenia, Canavan disease, and the superexcitation of the neural network).
