Multiscale

  • Synapse

    Membrane pattern allows anisotropic release of substance into a chemical synapse Introduction Special cell types, like neurons or immune cells, communicate through a chemical synapse. This includes the anisotropic secretion of a substance into the gap between two cells.

  • Diffusible Signal

    Introduction The mass-conserving secretion and uptake of (signaling) molecules by cells can in Morpheus be achieved with Mappers and scaling fluxes by cell.volume. The intracellular amount of signal may trigger a change in a state variable that could downstream change cell behaviors.

  • Anisotropic Release

    Membrane pattern allows anisotropic release of substance from cell Introduction This example serves to demonstrate a multiscale model of a cell secreting a substance/molecule and propelling away from the secreted substance.
