Homogeneity and size of alignment domains depend on podium length. by Martin Hoffmann (52389)

“…Down-regulation of cell migration, i.e. simultaneous decrease in the number of podia from 3 to 2 (offset value from 3.5 to 2.5) and the independent probabilistic podium inactivation rate from 2 to 0/d, occurs linearly in the range between and nearest neighbors. is set to 1∶3 for all simulations except for the one shown in panel B (short podia) in which it is set to 0∶2, i.e. down-regulation of migration already occurs at lower cell densities and results in better short range alignment (compare <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0021960#pone-0021960-g009" target="_blank">Figure 9</a>). is the maximum length of a podium (Modeling methods section E).…”
