Abstract
We study proliferation in tissues from the point of view of physiologically structured partial differential models, focusing on age synchronisation in the cell division cycle in cell populations and its control at phase transition checkpoints. We show how a recent fluorescence-based technique (FUCCI) performed at the single cell level in proliferating cell populations allows identifying model parameters and how it may be applied to investigate healthy and cancer cell populations. We show how this modelling approach allows designing original optimisation methods for cancer chronotherapeutics, by controlling eigenvalues of differential operators underlying proliferation dynamics, in tumour and in healthy cell populations.
