“…If we substitute this state into (B.1) we recover model (2.22), with the exception of equation (2.22d) which is now a steady-state equation. We note here that while different microscale-macroscale models (Stinner et al, 2014(Stinner et al, , 2015(Stinner et al, , 2016Meral et al, 2015a,b) and mesoscale models (Lorenz & Surulescu, 2014;Engwer et al, 2015;Perthame et al, 2016;Engwer et al, 2017;Hunt & Surulescu, 2017) for tumour-ECM interactions via integrins have been developed over the last two decades, to our knowledge there are not many studies that compare and contrast the outcomes of different ways the integrins are incorporated into these different models.…”
