Mathematical Modeling of Cell Adhesion in Shear Flow: Application to Targeted Drug Delivery in Inflammation and Cancer Metastasis

Cell adhesion plays a pivotal role in diverse biological processes that occur in the dynamic setting of the vasculature, including inflammation and cancer metastasis. Although complex, the naturally occurring processes that have evolved to allow for cell adhesion in the vasculature can be exploited...
