A Model of Cytotoxic Dose-Response Nonlinearities Arising from Adaptive Cell Inventory Management in Tissues
Why do low-level exposures to environmental toxins often elicit over-compensating responses that reduce risk to an organism? Conversely, if these responses improve health, why wait for an environmental challenge to trigger them? This paper presents a mathematical modeling framework that addresses bo...
