N2 - This paper presents a convection-diffusion-reaction model to simulate fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) binding on cell surface molecules of receptors and heparin sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling under flow condition. It includes three parts: the flow of media using incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, the transport of FGF-2 using a convection-diffusion transport equation, and the local binding and signaling by chemical kinetics. It consists of a set of coupled nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) and a set of coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). To solve these PDEs, the second order implicit Euler method with finite volume discretization is used. The ODE system is stiff and is solved by an ODE solver VODE using backward differencing formulation (BDF). The spatial distribution of FGF-2, FGFR, HSPG and their complexes are obtained. Our simulation results may provide insight into the understanding of regulation of heparin-binding gowth factors in circulation.
