Abstract

A mathematical model of atherosclerosis of a blood vessel is advanced with regard for the entry of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) into blood. For the first time, the influence of cytokines on the inflammation of a blood vessel at the formation of atherosclerotic plaques is taken into account. With the help of the expansion in a Fourier series and the calculation of an invariant measure, the scenario of the appearance of strange attractors depending on a change in the parameter of the dissipation of cholesterol is studied. The conclusion is made about the interconnection of the dynamics of the metabolic process in a blood vascular system and its physical state.

When is vaccine prioritization worth optimizing?

Optimizing vaccine prioritization is often treated as the default policy response when vaccine supply is limited. Yet optimized prioritization carries administrative, ethical and communication costs, motivating an upstream question: whether differences among vaccine allocations can alter epidemic outcomes enough to make optimization epidemiologically necessary. We show that optimization is not always worth pursuing: in some regimes, vaccination markedly reduces epidemic burden, but many feasible allocation rules perform almost equally well, making the necessity of optimization low. We quantify this necessity as the range of epidemic outcomes generated by different allocations under fixed supply and show that it is governed by competition between vaccinating high-contact groups to slow transmission and vaccinating groups that benefit most directly: necessity is low when these protection routes are balanced and high when one dominates. Increasing transmission intensity changes this balance and drives a transition in the optimal allocation from transmission-focused prioritization toward direct protection. Different prevention objectives exhibit distinct transition thresholds, creating regimes in which optimizing one objective substantially compromises another, thereby revealing when the choice of prevention target matters most. This framework reframes vaccine prioritization as a prior decision problem, identifying when optimization is warranted, when simpler rules suffice, and when prevention goals conflict.

A dynamic mathematical model for sub-lethal damage recovery: Integrating recovery processes into multi-target theory to visualize damage states

Quantifying the biological effects of radiation is essential for radiotherapy and radiation protection. While research has centered on statistical analyses of experimental data, this approach often fails to elucidate underlying mechanisms, limiting the development of generalizable models. Describing time dependent phenomena, such as sub-lethal damage (SLD) recovery during fractionated irradiation, presents a particularly significant challenge for existing static models. To address this, we developed a mechanistic mathematical model that extends the classical multi-target, single-hit model by introducing explicit recovery transitions among damage states, allowing the simultaneous description of radiation-induced damage accumulation and biological recovery. We applied this model to Elkind and Sutton's classical split-dose experimental data to determine its parameters. The model reproduced the major features of split-dose survival curves for treatments with 0-, 2.5-, and 23-hour recovery intervals. We visualized the temporal changes in damage state distributions within the cell populations. These simulations provided a process-level interpretation of the characteristic shoulder-like response appearing after an inter-fraction recovery interval. Furthermore, the estimated recovery half-life was about 120 minutes, which is broadly consistent with reported timescales of DNA double-strand break repair in mammalian cells, supporting the biological interpretability of the model parameters. The proposed framework provides a simple, interpretable description of radiation-induced cell death dynamics, including SLD recovery, and may serve as a basis for the improved mechanistic modeling of radiobiological effects under different irradiation protocols.

Full Three-dimensional Cell Geometry Matters for Epithelial Fluidization

Epithelial dynamics are often studied using two-dimensional models that omit cell height. Here, we investigate how this third dimension influences tissue fluidization driven by cell self-propulsion. We identify three effects absent from conventional 2D models. First, cell height controls fluidization through a reentrant transition: squamous and columnar tissues are more resistant to fluidization than cuboidal ones. Second, neighbor exchanges through transient scutoid states substantially enhance cell motility, compared to classic T1 transitions. Third, self-propelling cells develop pronounced apicobasal shape asymmetry, with the experimentally less accessible basal surface providing a more accurate indicator of cells' target shape index and motility.
