This article intents to present the basics of approach and to foster the potential role PNs could play in the development of the computational systems biology. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is a type of autoimmune thyroid disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys the thyroid gland. The thyroid helps set the rate of metabolism, which is the rate at which the body uses energy. Hashimoto's stops the gland from making enough thyroid hormones for the body to work the way it should. It is the most common thyroid disease in the U.S. we give a PN model for Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBiological systemsHormonesPetri netsComputational Systems BiologyPetri nets (PNs)PN modelsThyroid diseaseThyroid glandsThyroid hormonesThorium compoundsConference Object10.1007/978-3-642-12189-0_52-s2.0-77952318126
