Numerical Simulation of a Multiscale Cell Motility Model Based on the Kinetic Theory of Active Particles

Abstract: In this work, we deal with a kinetic model of cell movement that takes into consideration the structure of the extracellular matrix, considering cell membrane reactions, haptotaxis, and chemotaxis, which plays a key role in a number of biological processes such as wound healing and tumor cell invasion. The modeling is performed at a microscopic scale, and then, a scaling limit is performed to derive the macroscopic model. We run some selected numerical experiments aimed at understanding cell movement and adhes… Show more

“…The contributions available in the literature still need additional work which cannot skip over the need of sophisticated analytic tools to achieve this result. A deep analysis of the complex behaviors at the microscopic scale [33][34][35] which can include non symmetrical behaviors [36], can contribute to model the link between individual and collective behaviors.…”

“…Yet another class of multiscale models with chemo-and haptotaxis was proposed and studied in [42,43] and readdressed in terms of numerical simulations in [47] and of well-posedness under more or less restrictive assumptions in [59,70]. The models therein connect macroscopic descriptions of chemoattractant dynamics (reaction-diffusion equations) with mesoscopic kinetic transport equations for the evolution of cell and tissue density functions and can be seen to belong to the kinetic theory of active particles (KTAP) developed by Bellomo et al [1].…”
