We present a model for the interaction dynamics of lymphocytes-tumor cells population. This model reproduces all known states for the tumor. Futherly,we develop it taking into account periodical immunotheraphy treatment with cytokines…
Strong experimental evidence has indicated that tumor growth belongs to the molecular beam epitaxy universality class. This type of growth is characterized by the constraint of cell proliferation to the tumor border, and surface diffusion…
We introduce a multi-species diffuse interface model for tumor growth, characterized by its incorporation of essential features related to chemotaxis, angiogenesis and proliferation mechanisms. We establish the weak well-posedness of the…
Cancer is a complex disease that is characterized by uncontrolled growth and division of cells. It involves a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors that lead to the initiation and progression of tumors. Recent advances…
Major efforts to sequence cancer genomes are now occurring throughout the world. Though the emerging data from these studies are illuminating, their reconciliation with epidemiologic and clinical observations poses a major challenge. In the…
The physics of solid tumor growth can be considered at three distinct size scales: the tumor scale, the cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) scale and the sub-cellular scale. In this paper we consider the tumor scale in the interest of…
In this paper we propose an ecological resilience point of view on cancer. This view is based on the analysis of a simple ODE model for the interactions between cancer and normal cells. The model presents two regimes for tumor growth. In…
In this contribution, the non-local, integro-partial differential system of equations proposed by Hillen et al. (Bull. Math. Biol. 75, 2013, no.1, 161-184) to account for the the tumor growth paradox (or the observation that some incomplete…
A macroscopic model of the tumor Gompertzian growth is proposed. The new approach is based on the energetic balance among the different cell activities, described by methods of statistical mechanics and related to the growth inhibitor…
Tumor growth from a single transformed cancer cell up to a clinically apparent mass spans many spatial and temporal orders of magnitude. Implementation of cellular automata simulations of such tumor growth can be straightforward but…
We develop a new four-phase tumor growth model with angiogenesis, derived from a diffuse-interface mixture model composed by a viable, a necrotic, a liquid and an angiogenetic component, coupled with two massless chemicals representing a…
One of the mechanisms that ensure cancer robustness is tumor heterogeneity, and its effects on tumor cells dynamics have to be taken into account when studying cancer progression. There is no unifying theoretical framework in mathematical…
Hypoxia and acidity act as environmental stressors promoting selection for cancer cells with a more aggressive phenotype. As a result, a deeper theoretical understanding of the spatio-temporal processes that drive the adaptation of tumour…
Tumor growth has long been a target of investigation within the context of mathematical and computer modelling. The objective of this study is to propose and analyze a two-dimensional probabilistic cellular automata model to describe…
The uncontrolled proliferation of cancer cells and their interaction with healthy tissue poses a major challenge in oncology. This manuscript develops and analyzes mathematical models that describe tumor response to radiotherapy by…
We consider a phase-field model of prostate cancer growth with chemotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy effects which is introduced in [2]. It is comprised of phase-field equation to describe tumor growth, which is coupled to a…
Acidosis in tumors arises from reprogrammed metabolism and compromised vasculature, creating a harsh, acidic microenvironment that drives the evolutionary selection of acid-resistant cell phenotypes. A mathematical model is proposed to…
We study a tumor growth model in two space dimensions, where proliferation of the tumor cells leads to expansion of the tumor domain and migration of surrounding normal tissues into the exterior vacuum. The model features two moving…
Collective cell movement, characterized by multiple cells that are in contact for substantial periods of time and undergo correlated motion, plays a central role in cancer and embryogenesis. Recent imaging experiments have provided…
This paper deals with the cellular biological network analysis of the tumor-growth model, consisting of multiple spaces and time scales. In this paper, we present a model in graph simulation using ABM for tumor growth. In particular, we…
