Estimating lymphocyte division and death rates from CFSE data.
The division tracking dye, carboxyfluorescin diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) is currently the most informative labeling technique for characterizing the division history of cells in the immune system. Gett and Hodgkin [Nat. Immunol. 1:239-244, 2000] have pioneered the quantitative analysis of CFSE data. We confirm and extend their data analysis approach using simple mathematical models. We ...
متن کاملEstimates and impact of lymphocyte division parameters from CFSE data using mathematical modelling
Carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) labelling has been widely used to track and study cell proliferation. Here we use mathematical modelling to describe the kinetics of immune cell proliferation after an in vitro polyclonal stimulation tracked with CFSE. This approach allows us to estimate a set of key parameters, including ones related to cell death and proliferation. We dev...
متن کاملEstimating Expansion Rates from Range Data Sequences
We present a method to compute surface expansion rates from sequences of range data. Towards this end the 3D velocity field (range flow) is extracted first and then used in a second step to estimate the local area expansion. A detailed performance analysis is presented and the method is applied on two real examples.
متن کاملEstimating hypermutation rates from clonal tree data.
To understand the mechanisms underlying the varying patterns of mutations that occur during immune and autoimmune responses, estimates of the somatic hypermutation rate are critical. However, despite its significance, precise estimates of the mutation rate do not currently exist. Microdissection studies of mutating B cell clones provide an opportunity to measure this rate more accurately than p...
متن کاملEstimating recombination rates from population genetic data.
We introduce a new method for estimating recombination rates from population genetic data. The method uses a computationally intensive statistical procedure (importance sampling) to calculate the likelihood under a coalescent-based model. Detailed comparisons of the new algorithm with two existing methods (the importance sampling method of Griffiths and Marjoram and the MCMC method of Kuhner an...
