Dynamics of the ODE system (1) with initial conditions \((C_1(0),C_2(0),C_3(0),C_4(0),C_5(0)) = (1,0,0,0,0)\). Parameter values as in Table 1, except for symmetric division rates. (a) Scenario Symm1, where the symmetric division rate \(s_1\) is positive only in the HSC1 compartment. (b) Scenario SymmAll, where the symmetric division rate \(s_i\) is positive and identical for all compartments.
