Mathematical Modeling of Melanoma Cell Migration with an Elastic Continuum Model for the Evaluation of the Influence of Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha on Migration

Figure 5

Adhesion constant for different values of elasticity modulus, considering their ratio μm2 h−1 obtained with the nonlinear regression and showed in Table 1, for TNF-α. The thick line shows values of adhesion constant that are greater than the value of the control adhesion constant (0.42 h nN μm−2). This happens for values of elasticity modulus greater than 92.37 nN.
