Blebs are pressure-driven protrusions that have been observed in cells undergoing apoptosis, cytokinesis, or migration, including tumor cells that use blebs to escape their organs of origin. Here, we present a minimal 1D model of bleb-driven cell motion that combines a simple mechanical model with turnover kinetics of the actin cortex and adhesions between the membrane and the cortex. The deterministic version of this model is used to study the properties of individual blebbing events. We further introduce stochastic turnover of the adhesions, which allows for spontaneous initiation of repeated blebbing events, thus leading to sustained cell travel. We explore how the main parameters of the system control the properties of the blebbing events and the speed of cell travel. Finally, we derive a further simplification by deriving a Langevin approximation to this stochastic model.
