Abstract
In medicine, we are often confronted with biochemical systems where one or more substances play antagonistic roles. For example, this is the case when studying hormonal systems which are fundamental in human and animal physiology. They maintain many physiological regulations and a malfunction is catastrophic for an organism. In this chapter, we shall present a system first developed by B. Weil [74], and completed by A. Guillez [58] and P. Nelson [53].
