Description: Computer animation of cell division in the structure of real tissue. Explains behavior of stem cells, role of apoptosis, and has applications to developmental biology, also as a teaching tool. Includes articles and trial download.
Cell Division in Crypt - the computer simulation of cell proliferation  Sergei Fedorov (Moscow) and Michael Pyshnov (Toronto) Free registered license for individual use This is the first animated computer simulation of cell proliferation in a living tissue. The program takes into account the long-neglected, although, well known fact that a living tissue represents an integral structure composed of interconnected cells and having a tissue-specific architectonics. In the program, the tissue is represented as a two-dimensional hexagonal lattice that can be curved and folded. Cell contacts within the lattice are permanent and are not broken by cell division. The program operates with two basic mechanisms: a) the division wave and b) the cell death (apoptosis) serving as an initiation point for cell division.
