Center manifold analysis and Hopf bifurcation of within-host virus model
A mathematical model of a within-host viral infection is presented. A local stability analysis of the model is conducted in two ways. At first, the basic reproduction number of the system is calculated. It is shown that when the reproduction number falls below unity, the disease free equilibrium (DFE) is globally asymptotically stable, and when it exceeds unity, the DFE is unstable and there ex...
متن کاملEvidence of the COVID-19 Virus Targeting the CNS: Tissue Distribution, Host–Virus Interaction, and Proposed Neurotropic Mechanisms
The recent outbreak of coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID- 19) has gripped the world with apprehension and has evoked a scare of epic proportion regarding its potential to spread and infect humans worldwide. Scientists are struggling to understand how it resembles and differs from the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARSCoV) at the genomic and transcriptomic level. Simila...
متن کاملEvolutionary mechanisms of persistence and diversification of a calicivirus within endemically infected natural host populations.
In order to understand the evolutionary mechanisms of persistence and diversification within the Caliciviridae, we have been exploiting endemic infection of feline calicivirus within five geographically distinct household groups of cats. By sequencing immunodominant and variable regions of the capsid gene, we identified the relative contribution of the different evolutionary processes employed ...
متن کاملSlowly replicating lytic viruses: pseudolysogenic persistence and within-host competition.
We study the population dynamics of lytic viruses which replicate slowly in dividing host cells within an organism or cell culture, and find a range of viral replication rates that allows viruses to persist, avoiding extinction of host cells or dilution of viruses at too rapid or too slow viral replication. For the within-host competition between viral strains with different replication rates, ...
متن کاملMechanisms of Establishment and Maintenance of RNA Virus Persistence in Primary Lymphocytes: a Dissertation
RNA virus persistence in lymphocytes has been studied extensively in vitro but the influence of lymphocyte homeostatic mechanisms and antiviral immunity on persistence has not been well studied in an in vivo system. It is demonstrated here that vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), a negative-strand RNA virus , is maintained in B lymphocytes in vivo despite the existence of homeostatic mechanisms t...
