We investigate how the dynamics of a mathematical model
of a nephron depend on the precise form of the delay
in the tubuloglomerular feedback loop.
Although qualitative behavioral similarities emerge for
different orders of delay, we
find that significant quantitative differences occur.
Without more knowledge of the
form of the delay, this places restrictions on how
reasonable it is to expect close
quantitative agreement between the mathematical
model and experimental data.

Abstract
We investigate how the dynamics of a mathematical model
of a nephron depend on the precise form of the delay
in the tubuloglomerular feedback loop.
Although qualitative behavioral similarities emerge for
different orders of delay, we
find that significant quantitative differences occur.
Without more knowledge of the
form of the delay, this places restrictions on how
reasonable it is to expect close
quantitative agreement between the mathematical
model and experimental data.
