摘 要:Blood cell aggregation and adhesion to endothelial cells under shear flow are crucial to many biological processes such as thrombi formation,inflammatory cascade,and tumor metastasis, in which these cellular interactions are mainly mediated by dynamics and kinetics of underlying receptor-ligand *** the theoretical modeling of aggregation dynamics and adhesion kinetics of interacting cells have been well studied separately,how to couple these two processes remains poorly understood. Here we developed a unified framework that couples cellular aggregation dynamics and ad-
