Microenvironmental cooperation promotes early spread and bistability of a Warburg-like phenotype
Abstract We introduce an in silico model for the initial spread of an aberrant phenotype with Warburg-like overflow metabolism within a healthy homeostatic tissue in contact with a nutrient reservoir (the blood), aimed at characterizing the role of the microenvironment for aberrant growth.
