A mathematical model of HIV-1 infection including the saturation effect of healthy cell proliferation

Mahiéddine Kouche, Bedr'eddine Ainseba (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In this paper we derive a model describing the dynamics of HIV-1 infection in tissue culture where the infection spreads directly from infected cells to healthy cells trough cell-to-cell contact. We assume that the infection rate between healthy and infected cells is a saturating function of cell concentration. Our analysis shows that if the basic reproduction number does not exceed unity then infected cells are cleared and the disease dies out. Otherwise, the infection is persistent...

Mathematical modeling of the competition between acquired immunity and cancer

Mikhail Kolev (2003)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper we propose and analyse a model of the competition between cancer and the acquired immune system. The model is a system of integro-differential bilinear equations. The role of the humoral response is analyzed. The simulations are related to the immunotherapy of tumors with antibodies.
