Figure 4. Sprouting instability in a simulation initiated with a cluster of endothelial cells.
(A) After 10 MCS (5 min). (B) After 1,000 MCS (∼8 h). (C) After 10,000 MCS (∼80 h). (D) No sprouting in a simulation without contact inhibition of chemotaxis (Χ(c,c)/Χ(c,M) = 1) at 10,000 MCS (∼80 h). Scale bar: 50 lattice sites (≈100 µm).
