    Potentially stable states in the model and their biological behaviors: Combinations of different extracellular cytokines can make numerous input combinations or environmental conditions. Under each input combination, network should evolve to achieve certain states or functional behaviors. To identify these behaviors, we simulated the model under different combinations and doses of extracellular cytokines (Fig. 2A). First, we defined an initial state for simulation in which all internal components
