This paper presents a reproduced computational model of lymphatic collecting vessels. The model was originally introduced by Bertram et al. (2011), and comprises a series of contractile segments, known as lymphangions, interconnected by secondary lymphatic valves. The model focused on elucidating the pumping behavior of contracting lymphangions and deriving pump-characteristic curves, by incorporating pressure-dependent valve resistance, passive elasticity, and active contraction terms in multiple lymphangions connected in series.

The PBPK model of FcRn-mediated recycling of large molecules was developed and studied by deWitte et al. (2023) to characterize and predict Immunoglobulin G (IgG) disposition in plasma and tissues. This study investigated the large-molecule model in PK-Sim and its applicability to molecules with FcRn binding affinity in plasma.

An effort at reducing the Tong et al. (2011) model into a smaller number of equations for computational efficiency – the 'reduced' Tong model – aims at reproducing the overall behaviour without excessive detail.

Afshar et al. (2021) generated a computational model of non-isotonic glucose uptake by small intestinal epithelial cells. The model incorporates apical uptake via SGLT1 and GLUT2, basolateral efflux into the blood via GLUT2 and cellular volume changes in response to non-isotonic conditions.

The mechanistic model of neurovascular coupling was developed and studied by Sten et al. (2020). This model describes and predicts the arteriolar dilation data of mice under various stimulations while anaesthetised and awake. We reconstructed the model in CellML, using a modular approach for each neuronal pathway, and successfully reproduced the original experiments.

The Poh et al. (2012) paper describes the first biophysically based computational model of human jejunal smooth muscle cell (hJSMC) electrophysiology. The ionic currents are described by either a traditional Hodgkin-Huxley (HH) formalism or a deterministic multi-state Markov (MM) formalism.

The classic Boron & De Weer (1976) paper provided the first evidence of active regulation of pH in cells by an energy-dependent acid-base transporter. This Physiome paper seeks to make that model, and the experimental conditions under which it was developed, available in a reproducible and well-documented form, along with a software implementation that makes the model easy to use and understand.

The Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase is an essential component of cardiac electrophysiology, maintaining physiological Na⁺ and K⁺ concentrations over successive heart beats. Terkildsen et al. (2007) developed a model of the ventricular myocyte Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase to study extracellular potassium accumulation during ischaemia, demonstrating the ability to recapitulate a wide range of experimental data, but unfortunately there was no archived code associated with the original manuscript.
