CellDivision

To show SBML support in Morpheus as of version 2.1 in practice, we give a step-by-step example of how to download, import and extend an SBML model. 1. Get an SBML Model from BioModels First, we browse the BioModels model repository and select a model.

Let’s go through an example. We’ll construct a model in which an intracellular cell cycle network (ODE) regulates the division of motile cells which (CPM) release a diffusive cytokine (PDE) which, in turn, controls the cell cycle (ODE).

Demonstrates the Morpheus features asymmetric cell division (CellDivision), conditional change of cell type (ChangeCellType) and loading a simulation domain from an Image. This model also requires the separate file crypt.

Two-parameter plane showing all possible regimes of behavior for a single CPM cell Introduction The idea is based on figure 3 in the referenced paper. Description But here, we use two dimensionless parameters:

Multiple models in epithelial-mesenchymal transitions (EMT) Introduction We model epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by first assembling an ODE model for intracellular Yes-associated protein (YAP) signalling and then embedding this single cell model within individual cells in a multiscale simulation.

Particles moving left and right (as well as up) to mimic actin filament barbed ends Introduction Particles are moving left and right (as well as up) to mimic actin filament barbed ends as motivated by the referenced paper.
