Tumor induced angiogenesis processes including the effect of stochastic motion and branching of blood vessels can be described coupling a (nonlocal in time) integrodifferential kinetic equation of Fokker-Planck type with a diffusion…
Hypoxy induced angiogenesis processes can be described coupling an integrodifferential kinetic equation of Fokker-Planck type with a diffusion equation for the angiogenic factor. We propose high order positivity preserving schemes to…
A recent conceptual model of tumor-driven angiogenesis including branching, elongation, and anastomosis of blood vessels captures some of the intrinsic multiscale structures of this complex system, yet allowing to extract a deterministic…
The work analyzes a one-dimensional viscoelastic model of blood vessel growth under nonlinear friction with surroundings, and provides numerical simulations for various growing cases. For the nonlinear differential equations, two sufficient…
We study a system of particles in a two-dimensional geometry that move according to a reinforced random walk with transition probabilities dependent on the solutions of reaction-diffusion equations for the underlying fields. A birth process…
A coupled system of nonlinear mixed-type equations modeling early stages of angiogenesis is analyzed in a bounded domain. The system consists of stochastic differential equations describing the movement of the positions of the tip and stalk…
Angiogenesis is a multiscale process by which a primary blood vessel issues secondary vessel sprouts that reach regions lacking oxygen. Angiogenesis can be a natural process of organ growth and development or a pathological induced by a…
This paper deals with a nonlinear system of partial differential equations modeling a simplified tumor-induced angiogenesis taking into account only the interplay between tumor angiogenic factors and endothelial cells. Considered model…
When modeling of tumor-driven angiogenesis, a major source of analytical and computational complexity is the strong coupling between the kinetic parameters of the relevant stochastic branching-and-growth of the capillary network, and the…
Ensemble averages of a stochastic model show that, after a formation stage, the tips of active blood vessels in an angiogenic network form a moving two dimensional stable diffusive soliton, which advances toward sources of growth factor.…
In this work, we study the Neumann initial boundary value problem for a three-component chemotaxis model in any dimensional bounded and smooth domains; this model is used to describe the branching of capillary sprouts during angiogenesis.…
Angiogenesis, the development of new vasculature, is a critical process in the growth of new tumors. Driven by a goal to understand this aspect of cancer proliferation, I develop a discrete computationally optimized mathematical model of…
We prove existence and uniqueness of nonnegative solutions for a nonlocal in time integrodifferential diffusion system related to angiogenesis descriptions. Fundamental solutions of appropriately chosen parabolic operators with bounded…
Angiogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones in response to chemical signals secreted by, for example, a wound or a tumour. In this paper, we propose a mesoscopic lattice-based model of angiogenesis, in which…
Inspired by the modeling of grain growth in polycrystalline materials, we consider a nonlinear Fokker-Plank model, with inhomogeneous diffusion and with variable mobility parameters. We develop large time asymptotic analysis of such…
This paper is devoted to the anomalous diffusion limit of kinetic equations with a fractional Fokker-Planck collision operator in a spatially bounded domain. We consider two boundary conditions at the kinetic scale: absorption and specular…
In the field of Life Sciences it it very common to deal with extremely complex systems, from both analytical and computational points of view, due to the unavoidable coupling of different interacting structures. As an example, angiogenesis…
Employing a novel two-dimensional computational model we have simulated the feedback between angiogenesis and tumor growth dynamics. Analyzing vessel formation and elongation towards the concentration gradient of the tumor-derived…
In this paper we study the onset of angiogenesis and derive a new model to describe it. This new model takes the form of a nonlocal Burgers equation with both diffusive and dispersive terms. For a particular value of the parameters, the…
Tumor-induced angiogenesis is the formation of new sprouts from preexisting nearby parent blood vessels. Computationally, tumor-induced angiogenesis can be modeled using cellular automata (CA), partial differential equations, etc. In this…
