Modeling Within-Host Dynamics of Influenza Virus Infection Including Immune Responses
Influenza virus infection remains a public health problem worldwide. The mechanisms underlying viral control during an uncomplicated influenza virus infection are not fully understood. Here, we developed a mathematical model including both innate and adaptive immune responses to study the within-host dynamics of equine influenza virus infection in horses. By comparing modeling predictions with ...
متن کاملThe within-host dynamics of malaria infection with immune response.
Malaria infection is one of the most serious global health problems of our time. In this article the blood-stage dynamics of malaria in an infected host are studied by incorporating red blood cells, malaria parasitemia and immune effectors into a mathematical model with nonlinear bounded Michaelis-Menten-Monod functions describing how immune cells interact with infected red blood cells and mero...
متن کاملHost Immune Response to Influenza A Virus Infection
Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are contagious pathogens responsible for severe respiratory infection in humans and animals worldwide. Upon detection of IAV infection, host immune system aims to defend against and clear the viral infection. Innate immune system is comprised of physical barriers (mucus and collectins), various phagocytic cells, group of cytokines, interferons (IFNs), and IFN-stimulat...

متن کاملModeling Disease Dynamics at Within-Host and Between-Host Scales: HIV and Influenza as case studies
Mathematical models are becoming increasingly useful in studying the dynamics of infectious diseases, from within-host to between-host scales. With HIV and influenza as case studies, I will demonstrate how modeling can provide great insights into complex phenomena of these diseases. First, I will present a within-host model that can help address some of the issues related to the HIV-1 treatment...
