This paper is devoted to the analysis of a mathematical model of blood cells production in the bone marrow (hematopoiesis). The model is a system of two age-structured partial differential equations. Integrating these equations over the age, we obtain a system of two nonlinear differential equations with distributed time delay corresponding to the cell cycle duration. This system describes the evolution of the total cell populations. By constructing a Lyapunov functional, it is shown that the trivial equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if it is the only equilibrium. It is also shown that the nontrivial equilibrium, the most biologically meaningful one, can become unstable via a Hopf bifurcation. Numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the analytical results. The study maybe helpful in understanding the connection between the relatively short cell cycle durations and the relatively long periods of peripheral cell oscillations in some periodic hematological diseases.

We study a mathematical model describing the dynamics of a pluripotent stem cell population involved in the blood production process in the bone marrow. This model is a differential equation with a time delay. The delay describes the cell cycle durat
ion and is uniformly distributed on an interval. We obtain stability conditions independent of the delay. We also show that the distributed delay can destabilize the entire system. In particularly, it is shown that Hopf bifurcations can occur.
We analyze the asymptotic behavior of a partial differential equation (PDE) model for hematopoiesis. This PDE model is derived from the original agent-based model formulated by (Roeder et al., Nat. Med., 2006), and it describes the progression of blo
od cell development from the stem cell to the terminally differentiated state. To conduct our analysis, we start with the PDE model of (Kim et al, JTB, 2007), which coincides very well with the simulation results obtained by Roeder et al. We simplify the PDE model to make it amenable to analysis and justify our approximations using numerical simulations. An analysis of the simplified PDE model proves to exhibit very similar properties to those of the original agent-based model, even if for slightly different parameters. Hence, the simplified model is of value in understanding the dynamics of hematopoiesis and of chronic myelogenous leukemia, and it presents the advantage of having fewer parameters, which makes comparison with both experimental data and alternative models much easier.
How far is neuroepithelial cell proliferation in the developing central nervous system a deterministic process? Or, to put it in a more precise way, how accurately can it be described by a deterministic mathematical model? To provide tracks to answer
this question, a deterministic system of transport and diffusion partial differential equations, both physiologically and spatially structured, is introduced as a model to describe the spatially organized process of cell proliferation during the development of the central nervous system. As an initial step towards dealing with the three-dimensional case, a unidimensional version of the model is presented. Numerical analysis and numerical tests are performed. In this work we also achieve a first experimental validation of the proposed model, by using cell proliferation data recorded from histological sections obtained during the development of the optic tectum in the chick embryo.
Recent biological research has sought to understand how biochemical signaling pathways, such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, influence the migration of a population of cells during wound healing. Fishers Equation has been used
extensively to model experimental wound healing assays due to its simple nature and known traveling wave solutions. This partial differential equation with independent variables of time and space cannot account for the effects of biochemical activity on wound healing, however. To this end, we derive a structured Fishers Equation with independent variables of time, space, and biochemical pathway activity level and prove the existence of a self-similar traveling wave solution to this equation. We also consider a more complicated model with different phenotypes based on MAPK activation and numerically investigate how various temporal patterns of biochemical activity can lead to increased and decreased rates of population migration.
The hematopoietic system has a highly regulated and complex structure in which cells are organized to successfully create and maintain new blood cells. Feedback regulation is crucial to tightly control this system, but the specific mechanisms by whic
h control is exerted are not completely understood. In this work, we aim to uncover the underlying mechanisms in hematopoiesis by conducting perturbation experiments, where animal subjects are exposed to an external agent in order to observe the system response and evolution. Developing a proper experimental design for these studies is an extremely challenging task. To address this issue, we have developed a novel Bayesian framework for optimal design of perturbation experiments. We model the numbers of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in mice that are exposed to a low dose of radiation. We use a differential equations model that accounts for feedback and feedforward regulation. A significant obstacle is that the experimental data are not longitudinal, rather each data point corresponds to a different animal. This model is embedded in a hierarchical framework with latent variables that capture unobserved cellular population levels. We select the optimum design based on the amount of information gain, measured by the Kullback-Leibler divergence between the probability distributions before and after observing the data. We evaluate our approach using synthetic and experimental data. We show that a proper design can lead to better estimates of model parameters even with relatively few subjects. Additionally, we demonstrate that the model parameters show a wide range of sensitivities to design options. Our method should allow scientists to find the optimal design by focusing on their specific parameters of interest and provide insight to hematopoiesis. Our approach can be extended to more complex models where latent components are used.
