Molecular Communication for Quorum Sensing Inspired Cooperative Drug Delivery
Yuting Fang, Stuart T. Johnston, Matt Faria +3
A cooperative drug delivery system is proposed, where quorum sensing (QS), a density-dependent bacterial behavior coordination mechanism, is employed by synthetic bacterium-based n…
A Stochastic Biofilm Disruption Model based on Quorum Sensing Mimickers
Fatih Gulec, Andrew W. Eckford
Quorum sensing (QS) mimickers can be used as an effective tool to disrupt biofilms which consist of communicating bacteria and extracellular polymeric substances. In this paper, a…
Stochastic Modeling of Biofilm Formation with Bacterial Quorum Sensing
Fatih Gulec, Andrew W. Eckford
Bacteria generally live in complicated structures called biofilms, consisting of communicating bacterial colonies and extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). Since biofilms are re…
A factor graph EM algorithm for inference of kinetic microstates from patch clamp measurements
Alexander S. Moffett, Guiying Cui, Peter J. Thomas +4
We derive a factor graph EM (FGEM) algorithm, a technique that permits combined parameter estimation and statistical inference, to determine hidden kinetic microstates from patch c…
Linear Noise Approximation of Intensity-Driven Signal Transduction Channels
Gregory R. Hessler, Andrew W. Eckford, Peter J. Thomas
Biochemical signal transduction, a form of molecular communication, can be modeled using graphical Markov channels with input-modulated transition rates. Such channel models are st…
Finite-State Channel Models for Signal Transduction in Neural Systems
Andrew W. Eckford, Kenneth A. Loparo, Peter J. Thomas
Information theory provides powerful tools for understanding communication systems. This analysis can be applied to intercellular signal transduction, which is a means of chemical…
