From cell population models to tumor control probability: including cell cycle effects.
BACKGROUND Classical expressions for the tumor control probability (TCP) are based on models for the survival fraction of cancer cells after radiation treatment. We focus on the derivation of expressions for TCP from dynamic cell population models. In particular, we derive a TCP formula for a generalized cell population model that includes the cell cycle by considering a compartment of actively...
متن کاملEffects of berberine on proliferation, cell cycle distribution and apoptosis of human breast cancer T47D and MCF7 cell lines
Objective(s):Berberine, a naturally occurring isoquinoline alkaloid, has shown antitumor properties in some in vitro systems. But the effect of berberine on breast cancer has not yet been completely studied. In this study, we evaluated anticancer properties of berberine in comparison to doxorubicin. Materials and Methods: The antiproliferative effects of berberine and doxorubicin alone and in ...
متن کاملEffects of valproic acid and pioglitazone on cell cycle progression and proliferation of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia Jurkat cells
Objective(s): T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignant tumor. Administration of chemical compounds influencing apoptosis and T cell development has been discussed as promising novel therapeutic strategies. Valproic acid (VPA) as a recently emerged anti-neoplastic histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor and pioglitazone (PGZ) as a high-affinity peroxisome p...
متن کاملBiological effectiveness in hypofractionation: Modeling tumor survival probability for large doses with a stochastic cell-cycle model.
A model of irradiated cell survival probability based on cell-cycle regulation of an avascular tumor is developed. It is shown, that for high doses as used in hypofractionated regimens the conventional linear quadratic (LQ) model grossly underestimate cell survival. The surviving fraction of tumor cells in hypoxic and normoxic conditions is calculated as a function of dose for an equivalent tum...
متن کاملDynamical Analysis of Yeast Cell Cycle Using a Stochastic Markov Model
Introduction: The cell cycle network is responsible of control, growth and proliferation of cells. The relationship between the cell cycle network and cancer emergence, and the complex reciprocal interactions between genes/proteins calls for computational models to analyze this regulatory network. Ample experimental data confirm the existence of random behaviors in the interactions between gene...
