A SIMPLE MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER INVOLVING MACROPHAGES AND CD8+ T CELLS
We analyze biological processes interconnected to the tumor microenvironment development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), considering a proposed ordinary differential equation (ODE) model. The concepts of cancer as a disease, the cellular heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment composition, and the macrophage cell epigenetic heterogeneity are presented, and the dynamics of the relations between them, the cytotoxic T cells and the neoplasm cells are explored. The apoptosis rate of the macrophage cells which present protumor characteristics is revealed as having a key role in the local stability of the ODE model. Furthermore, the hypothesis on the relevance of the CD8+ T cells in assisting the macrophage cells to control the tumor volume indicates a immunotherapeutic treatment possibility that considers both of these cells effectively.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Biological Systems is published quarterly. The goal of the Journal is to promote interdisciplinary approaches in Biology and in Medicine, and the study of biological situations with a variety of tools, including mathematical and general systems methods. The Journal solicits original research papers and survey articles in areas that include (but are not limited to):
Complex systems studies; isomorphies; nonlinear dynamics; entropy; mathematical tools and systems theories with applications in Biology and Medicine.
Interdisciplinary approaches in Biology and Medicine; transfer of methods from one discipline to another; integration of biological levels, from atomic to molecular, macromolecular, cellular, and organic levels; animal biology; plant biology.
Environmental studies; relationships between individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems; bioeconomics, management of renewable resources; hierarchy theory; integration of spatial and time scales.
Evolutionary biology; co-evolutions; genetics and evolution; branching processes and phyllotaxis.
Medical systems; physiology; cardiac modeling; computer models in Medicine; cancer research; epidemiology.
Numerical simulations and computations; numerical study and analysis of biological data.
Epistemology; history of science.
The journal will also publish book reviews.
