Continuous time boolean modeling for biological signaling: application of Gillespie algorithm

TLDR
An algorithm for modeling biological networks in a discrete framework with continuous time based on continuous time Markov process applied on a Boolean state space, which allows to describe kinetic phenomena which were difficult to handle in the original models.
Abstract
Mathematical modeling is used as a Systems Biology tool to answer biological questions, and more precisely, to validate a network that describes biological observations and predict the effect of perturbations. This article presents an algorithm for modeling biological networks in a discrete framework with continuous time.

Logical Modeling and Dynamical Analysis of Cellular Networks.

TL;DR: A number of recent methodological advances to ease the analysis of large and intricate networks are reviewed, including approaches to determine model attractors and their reachability properties, to assess the dynamical impact of variations of external signals, and to consistently reduce large models.

Integrative modelling of the influence of MAPK network on cancer cell fate decision.

TL;DR: A comprehensive and generic reaction map for the MAPK signalling network is built, using CellDesigner software, and tentative proliferative or anti-proliferative mechanisms can be connected with established bladder cancer deregulations, namely Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor over-expression and Fibroblast Growth factor Receptor 3 activating mutations.

Mathematical Modelling of Molecular Pathways Enabling Tumour Cell Invasion and Migration.

TL;DR: A logical model has been constructed that recapitulates published experimental results of known gene perturbations on local invasion and migration processes, and is focused on several unexpected synergistic genetic interactions leading to theoretically very high metastasis probability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Logical modeling of lymphoid and myeloid cell specification and transdifferentiation.

TL;DR: Focusing on B-cell and macrophage development, a qualitative dynamical model recapitulating cytokine-induced differentiation of common progenitors, the effect of various reported gene knockdowns, and the reprogramming of pre-B cells into macrophages induced by the ectopic expression of specific transcription factors is defined.

Stochastic processes in physics and chemistry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce the Fokker-planck equation, the Langevin approach, and the diffusion type of the master equation, as well as the statistics of jump events.

A General Method for Numerically Simulating the Stochastic Time Evolution of Coupled Chemical Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper, an exact method is presented for numerically calculating, within the framework of the stochastic formulation of chemical kinetics, the time evolution of any spatially homogeneous mixture of molecular species which interreact through a specified set of coupled chemical reaction channels.

Probabilistic Boolean networks: a rule-based uncertainty model for gene regulatory networks

TL;DR: Probabilistic Boolean Networks (PBN) are introduced that share the appealing rule-based properties of Boolean networks, but are robust in the face of uncertainty.

Homeostasis and differentiation in random genetic control networks.

TL;DR: This work has found what seems to be a new class of dynamically stable systems, which suggests that even haphazardly constructed control nets of high molecular specificity undergo homeostasis and differentiation.

Dynamical analysis of a generic Boolean model for the control of the mammalian cell cycle

TL;DR: This work compares the respective advantages and limits of synchronous versus asynchronous updating assumptions to delineate the asymptotical behaviour of regulatory networks and proposes several intermediate strategies to optimize the computation of asymPTotical properties depending on available knowledge.
