International audience In this work, we propose a mathematical model to describe the dynamics of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection by taking into account the cure of infected cells, the export of precursor cytotoxic T lympho-cytes (CTL) cells from the thymus and both modes of transmission that are the virus-to-cell infection and the cell-to-cell transmission. The local stability of the disease-free equilibrium and the chronic infection equilibrium is obtained via characteristic equations. Furthermore, the global stability of both equilibria is established by using two techniques, the direct Lyapunov method for the disease-free equilibrium and the geometrical approach for the chronic infection equilibrium. Dans ce travail, nous proposons un modèle mathématique pour décrire la dynamique du virus d'hépatite B (HBV) en prenant en compte le taux de guérison de cellules infectées, l'exportation de précurseur cytotoxic des lymphocytes T (CTL) des cellules du thymus et les deux modes de transmission qui sont l'infection virus-à-cellule et la transmission cellule-à-cellule.La stabilité locale de l'équilibre libre et l'équilibre d'infection chronique est obtenue via des équations caractéristiques. En outre, la stabilité globale des deux équilibres est établie en utilisant deux techniques, la méthode directe de Lyapunov pour l'équilibre libre et l'approche géométrique pour l'équilibre d'infection chronique.

To better understand the dynamics of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, we introduce an improved HBV model with standard incidence function, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) immune response, and take into account the effect of the export of precursor CTL cells from the thymus and the role of cytolytic and noncytolytic mechanisms. The local stability of the disease-free equilibrium and the chronic infection equilibrium is obtained via characteristic equations. Furthermore, the global stability of both equilibria is established by using two techniques, the direct Lyapunov method for the disease-free equilibrium and the geometrical approach for the chronic infection equilibrium.

In this paper, we formulate a generalized hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with two modes of infection transmission and adaptive immunity, and investigate its dynamical properties. Both the virus-to-cell and cell-to-cell infection transmissions are modeled by general functions which satisfy some biologically motivated assumptions. Furthermore, the model incorporates three distributed time delays for the production of active infected hepatocytes, mature capsids and virions. The well-posedness of the proposed model is established by showing the non-negativity and boundedness of solu- tions. Five equilibria of the model are identified in terms of five threshold parameters R0, R1, R2, R3 and R4. Further, the global stability analysis of each equilibrium under certain conditions is carried out by employing suitable Lyapunov function and LaSalle’s invariance principle. Finally, we present an example with numerical simulations to il- lustrate the applicability of our study. Nonetheless, the results obtained in this study are valid for a wide class of HBV infection models.

A generalized chikungunya virus (CHIKV) infection model with nonlinear incidence functions and two time delays is proposed and investigated. The model takes into account both modes of transmission that are virus-to-cell infection and cell-to-cell transmission. Furthermore, the local and global stabilities of the disease-free equilibrium and the chronic infection equilibrium are established by using the linearization and Lyapunov functional methods. Moreover, the existence of Hopf bifurcation is also analyzed. Finally, an application is presented in order to support the analytical results.

In this paper, a diffusive hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection model with a discrete time delay is presented and analyzed, where the spatial mobility of both intracellular capsid covered HBV DNA and HBV and the intracellular delay in the reproduction of infected hepatocytes are taken into account. We define the basic reproduction number [Formula: see text] that determines the dynamical behavior of the model. The local and global stability of the spatially homogeneous steady states are analyzed by using the linearization technique and the direct Lyapunov method, respectively. It is shown that the susceptible uninfected steady state is globally asymptotically stable whenever [Formula: see text] and is unstable whenever [Formula: see text]. Also, the infected steady state is globally asymptotically stable when [Formula: see text]. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the results obtained.

We propose a generalized virus dynamics model with distributed delays and both modes of transmission, one by virus-to-cell infection and the other by cell-to-cell transfer. In the proposed model, the distributed delays describe (i) the time needed for infected cells to produce new virions and (ii) the time necessary for the newly produced virions to become mature and infectious. In addition, the infection transmission process is modeled by general incidence functions for both modes. Furthermore, the qualitative analysis of the model is rigorously established and many known viral infection models with discrete and distributed delays are extended and improved.

Biological models inherently contain delay. Mathematical analysis of a delay-induced model is, however, more difficult compare to its non-delayed counterpart. Difficulties multiply if the model contains multiple delays. In this paper, we analyze a realistic HIV-1 infection model in the presence and absence of multiple delays. We consider self-proliferation of CD4+T cells, nonlinear saturated infection rate and recovery of infected cells due to incomplete reverse transcription in a basic HIV-1 in-host model and incorporate multiple delays to account for successful viral entry and subsequent virus reproduction from the infected cell. Both of delayed and non-delayed system becomes disease-free if the basic reproduction number is less than unity. In the absence of delays, the infected equilibrium is shown to be locally asymptotically stable under some parametric space and unstable otherwise. The system may show unstable oscillatory behaviour in the presence of either delay even when the non-delayed system is stable. The second delay further enhances the instability of the endemic equilibrium which is otherwise stable in the presence of a single delay. Numerical results are shown to be in agreement with the analytical results and reflect quite realistic dynamics observed in HIV-1 infected individuals.
