The Tumor Microenvironment

7.8K
Every normal cell or tissue is embedded in a complex local environment called stroma, consisting of different cell types, a basal membrane, and blood vessels. As normal cells mutate and develop into cancer cells, their local environment also changes to allow cancer progression. The tumor microenvironment (TME) consists of a complex cellular matrix of stromal cells and the developing tumor. The cross-talk between cancer cells and surrounding stromal cells is critical to disrupt normal tissue...

Prediction Intervals01:03

Prediction Intervals

3.4K
The interval estimate of any variable is known as the prediction interval. It helps decide if a point estimate is dependable.
However, the point estimate is most likely not the exact value of the population parameter, but close to it. After calculating point estimates, we construct interval estimates, called confidence intervals or prediction intervals. This prediction interval comprises a range of values unlike the point estimate and is a better predictor of the observed sample value, y.

What is Behavior?00:54

What is Behavior?

10.3K
Behaviors are actions that an organism engages in—they can be related to finding food, reproducing, defending against threats, and many other possible actions. Behaviors include activities related to the environment around the animal—such as migration—as well as social interactions within a species or population. Many behaviors involve motor output—that is, muscle movements—while others involve less visible actions, such as learning.

Compartment Models: Single-Compartment Model01:14

Compartment Models: Single-Compartment Model

3.2K
The single-compartment model serves as a simplified representation of the human body. This model assumes that the body functions as a single, well-mixed open compartment. When a drug is administered intravenously, it enters the body and quickly distributes uniformly. The drug then undergoes biotransformation and elimination, ultimately leaving the body. The volume of this compartment is referred to as the apparent volume of distribution into which the drug can uniformly distribute. In this...

End Point Prediction: Gran Plot01:07

End Point Prediction: Gran Plot

1.2K
A Gran plot is used to predict the equivalence volume or endpoint of a potentiometric or acid-base titration without reaching the endpoint. Typically, titration data is collected as a function of the titrant's volume up to a point less than the equivalence volume and then transformed into a linear format. The straight line is extended to the x-axis, indicating the necessary titrant volume to achieve the equivalence point.
For potentiometric titration, the Gran plot is created by plotting...

Area of Science:

  • Computational biology
  • Systems biology
  • Cellular and molecular biology

Background:

  • Cell phenotype is determined by genotype and environmental interactions, crucial for understanding biology and disease.
  • Molecular pathway analysis aids understanding but often neglects the physical microenvironment's role in phenotype determination.
  • A comprehensive model is needed to integrate genotype, signaling, and microenvironment for predicting cell behavior.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel computational modeling framework for studying genotype-phenotype relationships in a 3D microenvironment.
  • To enable the investigation of how intrinsic (e.g., mutations) and extrinsic (e.g., nutrient availability) perturbations interact to influence cell behavior.
  • To predict the evolution of complex multicellular dynamics, using cancer as a model system.

Main Methods:

  • Integration of Agent-Based Modeling (ABM) with gene networks to create a computational framework.
  • Development of a model simulating a heterogeneous cell population in a dynamic 3D microenvironment.
  • Application of the framework to model interactions between genetic mutations and environmental factors like nutrient availability.

Main Results:

  • The framework successfully models the link between genotype, signaling networks, and cell behavior within a 3D microenvironment.
  • It allows for the testing of biological hypotheses in a controlled, stepwise manner.
  • The model identified determinants of single-cell behavior and uncovered emergent properties of multicellular growth in a cancer model.

Conclusions:

  • The developed framework offers a unique approach to understanding genotype-phenotype dynamics in complex biological systems.
  • It provides insights into single-cell behavior determinants and multicellular growth properties.
  • This computational tool facilitates the study of cellular heterogeneity and environmental influences on cell behavior and evolution.
