A Mathematical Model for the Release of Vasopressin using Fuzzy Step-Stress Approach

Abstract

The theoretical study was to investigate the release of the hormones Vasopressin and Oxytocin from explants of the hypothalamoneurohypophysial system (HNS). A mathematical model using fuzzy constant step –stress approach was developed and used this model to calculate the mean values of the release of Vasopressin and Oxytocin. The result shows that a synergistic effect of metabotropic glutamate receptor activation of Vasopressin and Oxytocin.

Keywords: Fuzzy step-stress mean value, Vasopressin, oxytocin
