Detailed Description

This class contains all the things common to the Wnt cell cycle ODE based models, the resetting method and updating of cell types etc.

The concrete models all need to operate with a WntConcentration singleton object.

These models have a constant length M phase, run ODEs to decide when to finish G1 phase, then add time for S and G2 phases (in some classes, random periods of time). The CellType is updated dependent on the concentration of beta-catenin (given by one of the ODEs).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel ( unsigned  dimension  ) 

Default constructor

Parameters:
dimension the spatial dimension (used by WntConcentration)

Definition at line 38 of file AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel.cpp.

References mDimension, and msSolver.

AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel ( const AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel rOtherModel  ) 

Copy constructor.

This is needed because we store and manage a pointer to an ODE system. Note that this class doesn't actually copy the ODE system, because each subclass will use a different type. Hence subclasses *must* copy their own ODE system in their copy constructor.

Parameters:
rOtherModel the cell cycle model being copied.

Member Function Documentation

template<class Archive>
void AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::serialize ( Archive &  archive,
const unsigned int  version 
) [inline, private]

Archive the cell cycle model, never used directly - boost uses this.

Parameters:
archive the archive
version the current version of this class

Reimplemented from AbstractOdeBasedCellCycleModel.

Reimplemented in IngeWntSwatCellCycleModel, StochasticWntCellCycleModel, and WntCellCycleModel.

Definition at line 68 of file AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel.hpp.

References mDimension.

double AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::GetOdeStopTime (  )  [protected, virtual]

Returns:
time when the ODEs reached their stopping condition.

Implements AbstractOdeBasedCellCycleModel.

Definition at line 63 of file AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel.cpp.

References AbstractIvpOdeSolver::GetStoppingTime(), msSolver, and AbstractIvpOdeSolver::StoppingEventOccurred().

double AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::GetWntLevel (  )  [protected]

void AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::ResetForDivision (  )  [virtual]

Resets the Wnt Model to the start of the cell cycle (this model does not cycle naturally) Cells are given a new birth time and cell cycle proteins are reset. Note that the Wnt pathway proteins maintain their current values.

Should only be called by the TissueCell::Divide() method.

Reimplemented from AbstractOdeBasedCellCycleModel.

Reimplemented in StochasticWntCellCycleModel.

Definition at line 102 of file AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel.cpp.

References AbstractOdeSystem::GetInitialConditions(), AbstractOdeBasedCellCycleModel::mpOdeSystem, AbstractOdeBasedCellCycleModel::ResetForDivision(), and AbstractOdeSystem::rGetStateVariables().

Referenced by StochasticWntCellCycleModel::ResetForDivision().

void AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::UpdateCellType (  ) 

Updates the current cell type to reflect whether the beta-catenin level has dropped low enough to make it stop dividing. This should only be called when the cell cycle model has been evaluated to the current time, or it may give misleading results.

virtual void AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::ChangeCellTypeDueToCurrentBetaCateninLevel (  )  [pure virtual]

This must be implemented by subclasses to change cell type to reflect current levels of beta-catenin.

Implemented in IngeWntSwatCellCycleModel, and WntCellCycleModel.

Referenced by UpdateCellType().

unsigned AbstractWntOdeBasedCellCycleModel::GetDimension (  ) 

Get the spatial dimension.

Returns:
mDimension
