Figure 4. Assessment of cellular performance.

We measured the maze success rates (a,c) and the passage rate (b,d) of four different phenotypes: with high proliferation rate, high invasion rate, both low and both high. Three different environmental resource levels were tested, compared to the optimal glucose concentration C₀ (see main text). (a,b) with no HGF stimulation; (c,d) with HGF stimulation. Error bars (a,c) indicate +/– standard deviation. 1000 simulation runs were performed for each case.
