Main Results:

  • Cellulat effectively models intracellular signaling by treating cells as adaptive autonomous agents.
  • The model accounts for agent cognitive abilities and their spatial arrangement.
  • A methodology for pathway modeling using Cellulat has been proposed.

Conclusions:

  • Agent-based modeling offers a powerful approach for simulating intracellular signaling.
  • Cellulat provides a framework for understanding cellular behavior through agent interactions.
  • The developed model supports the creation of a virtual laboratory for further research.
