Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma is an aggressive, uncommon cancer. Furthermore, factors causing cholangiocarcinoma are unknown and lowly understood. All of this leads to late diagnosis and weak survival chances of 5% within 5 years after diagnosis. In need to better understand the mechanisms of tumorigenesis, Mickaël Di-Luoffo within the de Duve institute develop a mice model that highlighted the structure of a gene network involved in cholangiocarcinoma growth. On basis of this previous work, this master thesis suggests a modelling sequence for the construction of a quantitative mathematical model imitating the behavior of this gene network.
