- W2943851154 abstract "Chemotaxis, the movement of an organism in response to chemical stimuli, is a typical feature of many microbiological systems. In particular, the social amoeba textit{Disctyostelium discoideum} is widely used as a model organism, but it is not still clear how it behaves in heterogeneous environments. A few models focusing on mechanical features have already addressed the question; however, we suggest that phenomenological models focusing on the population dynamics may provide new meaningful data. Consequently, by means of a specific Multi-agent system model, we study the dynamical features emerging from complex social interactions among individuals belonging to amoeba colonies. After defining an appropriate metric to quantitatively estimate the gathering process, we find that: a) obstacles play the role of local topological perturbation, as they alter the flux of chemical signals; b) physical obstacles (blocking the cellular motion and the chemical flux) and purely chemical obstacles (only interfering with chemical flux) elicit similar dynamical behaviors; c) a minimal program for robustly gathering simulated cells does not involve mechanisms for obstacle sensing and avoidance; d) fluctuations of the dynamics concur in preventing multiple stable clusters. Comparing those findings with previous results, we speculate about the fact that chemotactic cells can avoid obstacles by simply following the altered chemical gradient. Social interactions are sufficient to guarantee the aggregation of the whole colony past numerous obstacles." @default.
