Difference in Difference in curves between curves between receptors and no receptors and no receptorsreceptors

Functional Linear Models
X(t) = X(t) = ββ00(t) + (t) + ββ11(t)(t)AA + + ββ22(t)(t)B B + + ββ33(t)(t)A*BA*B + + εε(t),(t),
Receptors Receptors affect steady affect steady state.state.
B stronger B stronger than A.than A.
Effects Effects strongest strongest after minute after minute 9.9.
A and B have A and B have inhibitory inhibitory relationship relationship after minute after minute 9.9.
Receptors Receptors affect steady affect steady state.state.
B stronger B stronger than A.than A.
Effects Effects strongest strongest after minute after minute 9.9.
A and B have A and B have inhibitory inhibitory relationship relationship after minute after minute 9.9.
Can also do a functional linear model for derivative (rate of change):
FDA allows us to work with derivatives – which are closer to the mechanisms of the process
dX/dt = dX/dt = ββ00(t) + (t) + ββ11(t)(t)AA + + ββ22(t)(t)B B + + ββ33(t)(t)A*BA*B + + εε(t),(t),
A “kicks in” A “kicks in” earlier than earlier than does B.does B.
A kicks in at A kicks in at minute 9, B minute 9, B at minute at minute 15.15.
When When together, together, see push see push only at only at minute 9 minute 9 (from A?)(from A?)
