The dynamical behaviors for a five-dimensional viral infection model with three delays which describes the interactions of antibody, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) immune responses, and nonlinear incidence rate are investigated. The threshold values for viral infection, antibody response, CTL immune response, CTL immune competition, and antibody competition, respectively, are established. Under certain assumptions, the threshold value conditions on the global stability of the infection-free, immune-free, antibody response, CTL immune response, and interior equilibria are proved by using the Lyapunov functionals method, respectively. Immune delay as a bifurcation parameter is further investigated. The numerical simulations are performed in order to illustrate the dynamical behavior of the model.

AbstractIn this paper, we discussed a infinitely distributed delayed viral infection model with nonlinear immune response and general incidence rate. We proved the existence and uniqueness of the equilibria. By using the Lyapunov functional and LaSalle invariance principle, we obtained the conditions of global stabilities of the infection-free equilibrium, the immune-exhausted equilibrium and the endemic equilibrium. Numerical simulations are given to verify the analytical results.

In this paper, we propose and investigate a diffusive viral infection model with distributed delays and cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) immune response. Also, both routes of infection that are virus-to-cell infection and cell-to-cell transmission are modeled by two general nonlinear incidence functions. The well-posedness of the proposed model is also proved by establishing the global existence, uniqueness, nonnegativity and boundedness of solutions. Moreover, the threshold parameters and the global asymptotic stability of equilibria are obtained. Furthermore, diffusive and delayed virus dynamics models presented in many previous studies are improved and generalized.

We have developed a class of viral infection model with cell-to-cell transmission and humoral immune response. The model addresses both immune and intracellular delays. We also constructed Lyapunov functionals to establish the global dynamical properties of the equilibria. Theoretical results indicate that considering only two intracellular delays did not affect the dynamical behavior of the model, but incorporating an immune delay greatly affects the dynamics, i.e. an immune delay may destabilize the immunity-activated equilibrium and lead to Hopf bifurcation, oscillations and stability switches. Our results imply that an immune delay dominates the intracellular delays in the model. We also investigated the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the periodic solutions by applying normal form and center manifold theory, and investigated the existence of global Hopf bifurcation by regarding the immune delay as a bifurcation parameter. Numerical simulations are carried out to support the analytical conclusions.

A viral infection model with saturated incidence rate and viral infection with delay is derived and analyzed; the incidence rate is assumed to be a specific nonlinear formβxv/(1+αv). The existence and uniqueness of equilibrium are proved. The basic reproductive numberR0is given. The model is divided into two cases: with or without delay. In each case, by constructing Lyapunov functionals, necessary and sufficient conditions are given to ensure the global stability of the models.

A delayed HIV-1 infection model with CTL immune response is investigated. By using suitable Lyapunov functionals, it is proved that the infection-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if the basic reproduction ratio for viral infection is less than or equal to unity; if the basic reproduction ratio for CTL immune response is less than or equal to unity and the basic reproduction ratio for viral infection is greater than unity, the CTL-inactivated infection equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; if the basic reproduction ratio for CTL immune response is greater than unity, the CTL-activated infection equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable.
