A hybrid approach to multi−scale modelling of cancer
- Abstract:
-
In this paper, we review multi-scale models of solid tumour growth and discuss a middleout framework that tracks individual cells. By focusing on the cellular dynamics of a healthy colorectal crypt and its invasion by mutant, cancerous cells, we compare a cellcentre, a cell-vertex and a continuum model of cell proliferation and movement. All models reproduce the basic features of a healthy crypt: cells proliferate near the crypt base, they migrate upwards and are sloughed off near the top. Th...
