Figure 5From: Cell lineage branching as a strategy for proliferative control Control of multi-layered lineages. (A, B) Shown are populations of the different cells types over time in response to a stochastic forcing function in all three types of stem-like cells x 1 , x 3 , and x 5 for a renewal-controlled multi-layer lineage (panel A) and a fate-controlled multi-layer lineage (panel B). (C) Histogram of the distribution of the total population of terminal and stem cells for the sample path in panel A. (D) Histogram of the distribution of the total population of terminal and stem cells for the sample path in panel B. For parameter values used see Additional file 1: Table S2.Back to article page
