The time evolution of the density of each variable. (A) tumor cells and ECM (B) TGF-β (C) N1/N2 neutrophils (D) neutrophil elastase (E) MMP (F) CXCL8. Here, ECM = [0.35, 0.65]⊂ Ω = [0, 1]. Note that the initial concentrations of CXCL8, TGF-β, neutrophil elastase and MMPs are uniformly zero, as in experiments. *x-axis = space (the dimensionless length across the invasion chamber), y-axis = the dimensionless density/concentration of the variables.
