Novel analysis of the fractional glucose-insulin regulatory system with non-singular kernel derivative

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus, at the forefront of the diseases of our age, is a type of disease that plays a leading role in the formation of many deadly diseases and is very common all over the world. In this work, based on the system in Shabestari et al. (Chaos Solitons Fractals 112:44-51, 2018), we give the fractional glucose-insulin regulatory system for the first time by Caputo-Fabrizio derivative. We present special solutions, stability analysis, uniqueness of the solution for this fractional system with the aid of Banach fixed point theory. Taking various values belonging to the fractional order into consideration, we present some numerical results according to the relation between glucose, insulin and beta-cells.
