Table 4.

The specification of the durations and time intervals assigned to the components of the model. Unfortunately, in the case of the modeled processes (see column ’Process’) only approximate time values can be found in the literature (see columns ’Time Information Coming from the Available Literature’ and ’Time Interval’). Thus, we recalculated those values using the scale of 1 to 1000 (see column ’Duration’) to model the time dependencies between them.

Process Duration Time Information Coming
from the Available Literature
Time Interval
binding of ligands and proteins,
influence of molecules,
activation of enzymes,
proteins and processes
1 seconds [39] Very Short
recruitment, connection, phosphorylation,
stabilization of molecules,
modulation of the activation of
proteins and processes, ubiquitination
40 seconds to a minute [40] Short
decrease in molecules availability,
dissociation of protein complexes
100 about twice shorter than
synthesis and expression [41]
Medium
synthesis of biomolecules (e.g., INF-γ, pro IL-18),
increase in molecules availability/production,
TNFR1 endocytosis, translocation of protein
complexes from cytosol to nucleus and
from nucleus to cytosol, lipids peroxidation
200 >minutes [40] Long
severe inflammation, differentiation of
monocytes into macrophages
500 >hours [37] Very Long
atherosclerotic plaque development, CVD 1000 >days [37,41] Very, Very Long
