A multiscale model for glioma spread including cell-tissue interactions and proliferation

Abstract: Glioma is a broad class of brain and spinal cord tumors arising from glia cells, which are the main brain cells that can develop into neoplasms. They are highly invasive and lead to irregular tumor margins which are not precisely identifiable by medical imaging, thus rendering a precise enough resection very difficult. The understanding of glioma spread patterns is hence essential for both radiological therapy as well as surgical treatment. In this paper we propose a multiscale model for glioma growth includin… Show more

“…In the following we will use the syntagma 'cell surface receptors' for all kinds of receptors involved in cell-tissue adhesion and will concentrate on integrins when referring to chemotherapeutical agents which aim at inhibiting migration and proliferation. For further discussions on the issue of glioma-tissue adhesion we refer to [17,19]. The two cancer cell densities of interest satisfy on the mesoscale the system of partial integrodifferential equations…”

“…The function λ(y) denotes as in [17,19,18] the turning rate of the cells. Motivated by existing experimental evidence (see e.g., [46]) that integrins expressed by resting cells cannot in general bind their ligands, we assume this also for our model, as we did in [19].…”
