  1. \(h^{+}, h^{-} \in \mathbb {R}\) with unit [s−1] are the respective adhesion receptor association and dissociation rates, \(R_{0} \in \mathbb {N}\) is the maximum adhesion receptor concentration. In the stochastic case, R 0 and y 0 are the expected values of a normal distribution. y 0 has different expected values for slow and fast regulation modes (see text).
