The Linear Noise Approximation for Spatially Dependent Biochemical Networks.

abstract：:In this paper, we present a mathematical model predicting the fraction of proliferating cells in G1, S, and G2/M phases of the cell cycle as a function of EGFR and HER2. We show that it is possible to find parameters for the mathematical model so that its predictions agree with the experimental observations that HER2 ...
