The Dynamics of Heat Shock Response Induced by Ultrasound Therapeutic Treatment

Andrzej Mizera, Barbara Gambin, The Dynamics of Heat Shock Response Induced by Ultrasound Therapeutic Treatment. In: 10th Conference on Dynamical Systems - Theory and Applications, 2, 847-852, 2009.

Abstract:

We consider hyperthermia, procedure of raising the temperature above 37ºC, as a treatment modality. A Finite Element Method model for obtaining an appropriate heating scheme on the tissue level is considered. Next, the resulting temperature time-course profile is plugged into a recently published mathematical model of heat shock response in eukaryotic cells. The dynamics and biological consequences of the model’s behavior are discussed.
