Abstract
We extend the live-cell motility Filament Based Lamellipodium Model to
incorporate the forces exerted on the lamellipodium of the cells due to
cell-cell collision and cadherin induced cell-cell adhesion. We take
into account the nature of these forces via physical and biological
constraints and modelling assumptions. We investigate the effect these
new components have in the migration and morphology of the cells through
particular experiments. We exhibit moreover the similarities between our
simulated cells and HeLa cancer cells.
