Abstract:Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) play a prominent and rising role in the tumor microenvironment. An understanding of the tumor-MDSC interactions that influence disease progression is critical, and currently lacking. To address this, we developed a mathematical model of metastatic growth and progression in immune-rich tumor microenvironments. We model the tumor-immune dynamics with stochastic delay differential equations, and study the impact of delays in MDSC activation/recruitment on tumor growth outc… Show more
