Bile Acid Enterohepatic Circulation (2D)

2D schematic companion of the enterohepatic circulation lab: the same 4-compartment ODE model (liver, gallbladder, intestine, portal return) with FXR feedback on CYP7A1 synthesis, plus a bile acid sequestrant and ileal resection toggle that genuinely cut reabsorption and drive up compensatory synthesis.

This 2D companion runs the same 4-compartment bile-acid ODE model as the 3D lab on a flat schematic diagram: liver, gallbladder, intestine and portal-return pools fill and drain as circles, ducts carry particle flow scaled to the real computed rate, and the sequestrant/resection toggles actually change the reabsorption term, not just the artwork.
