Аннотация:A kinetic model describing the pulse of increased oxygen concentrations and the subsequent changes in the concentration of Nacetylaspartate 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 Nacetylaspartate. 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).
