The Effects of EGF-Receptor Density on Multiscale Tumor Growth Patterns
Chaitanya A. Athale, Thomas S. Deisboeck
We studied the effects of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) density on tumor growth dynamics, both on the sub- and the multi-cellular level using our previously developed mod…
The Dynamic Evolution of the Power Exponent in a Universal Growth Model of Tumors
Caterina Guiot, Pier Paolo Delsanto, Alberto Carpinteri +2
We have previously reported that a universal growth law, as proposed by West and collaborators for all living organisms, appears to be able to describe also the growth of tumors in…
Simulating the Impact of a Molecular 'Decision-Process' on Cellular Phenotype and Multicellular Patterns in Brain Tumors
Chaitanya Athale, Yuri Mansury, Thomas S. Deisboeck
Experimental evidence indicates that human brain cancer cells proliferate or migrate, yet do not display both phenotypes at the same time. Here, we present a novel computational mo…
Scaling Laws in Cancer: The Dynamic Behaviour of the Power Exponent p
Caterina Guiot, Pier Paolo Delsanto, Yuri Mansury +1
We have previously reported that a 'universal' growth law with fixed scaling exponent p, as proposed by West and collaborators for all living organisms, appears to be able to descr…
Insights from a Novel Tumor Model: Indications for a Quantitative Link between Tumor Growth and Invasion
Thomas S. Deisboeck, Yuri Mansury, Caterina Guiot +2
Using our previously developed model we demonstrate here, that (1) solid tumor growth and cell invasion are linked, not only qualitatively but also quantitatively, that (2) the ons…
Does tumor growth follow a 'universal law'?
caterina Guiot, Piero Giorgio Degiorgis, Pier Paolo Delsanto +2
A general model for the ontogenetic growth of living organisms has been recently proposed. Here we investigate the extension of this model to the growth of solid malignant tumors.…
