Discrete Coupling and Synchronization in the Insulin Release in the Mathematical Model of the β Cells by L. J. Ontañón-García, E. Campos-Cantón

“…The synchronization phenomenon that occurs in the Langerhans islets among pancreatic β cells is an interesting topic because these cells are responsible for the release of insulin in the blood stream. The aim of this work is to generate in-phase bursting electrical activity (BEA) in β cells with different behaviors such as active, inactive, and continuous spiking cells based on mathematical models using a discrete time coupling. …”

A multiscale model of the bone marrow and hematopoiesis by Ariosto Silva, Alexander R. A. Anderson, Robert Gatenby

“…Our goal is the development of a spatially-explicit in silico model of the bone marrow to understand both its normal function and the evolutionary dynamics that govern the emergence of bone marrow malignancy.Here we introduce a multiscale computational model of the bone marrow that incorporates three distinct spatial scales, cell, hematopoietic subunit, whole marrow.Our results, using parameter estimates from literature, recapitulates normal bone marrow function and suggest an explanation for the fractal-like structure of trabeculae and sinuses in the marrow, which would be an optimization of the hematopoietic function in order to maximize the number of mature blood cells produced daily within the volumetric restrictions of the marrow.…”
