Enhancing dendritic cell immunotherapy for melanoma using a simple mathematical model [PDF]
Theoretical Biology and Medical Modelling, 2015 The immunotherapy using dendritic cells (DCs) against different varieties of cancer is an approach that has been previously explored which induces a specific immune response. This work presents a mathematical model of DCs immunotherapy for melanoma in mice based on work by Experimental Immunotherapy Laboratory of the Medicine Faculty in the Universidad

Topological entropy of transitive dendrite maps [PDF]
, 2012 We show that every dendrite satisfying the condition that no subtree of it contains all free arcs admits a transitive, even exactly Devaney chaotic map with arbitrarily small entropy. This gives a partial answer to a question of Baldwin from 2001.Comment:

Transitive dendrite map with infinite decomposition ideal [PDF]
, 2014 By a result of Blokh from 1984, every transitive map of a tree has the relative specification property, and so it has finite decomposition ideal, positive entropy and dense periodic points.

Defining a standard and weighted mathematical index for maturation of dendritic cells [PDF]
Immunology, 2017 SummaryThe concept of dendritic cell (DC) maturation generally refers to the changes in morphology and function of DCs. Conventionally, DC maturity is based on three criteria: loss of endocytic ability, gain of high‐level capacity to present antigens and induce proliferation of T cells, and mobility of DCs toward high concentrations of CCL19 ...

A brain-wave equation incorporating axo-dendritic connectivity [PDF]
, 2020 We introduce an integral model of a two-dimensional neural field that includes a third dimension representing space along a dendritic tree that can incorporate realistic patterns of axo-dendritic connectivity.

On local fixed or periodic point properties [PDF]
, 2013 A space X has the local fixed point property LFPP, (local periodic point property LPPP) if it has an open basis $\mathcal{B}$ such that, for each $B\in \mathcal{B}$, the closure $\overline{B}$ has the fixed (periodic) point property.

Dissociation of HIV-1 from follicular dendritic cells during HAART: Mathematical analysis [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 Follicular dendritic cells (FDC) provide a reservoir for HIV type 1 (HIV-1) that may reignite infection if highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is withdrawn before virus on FDC is cleared. To estimate the treatment time required to eliminate HIV-1 on FDC, we develop deterministic and stochastic models for the reversible binding of HIV-1 to FDC ...

Dendritic Signals Command Firing Dynamics in a Mathematical Model of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 Dendrites of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs) respond to brief excitations from parallel fibers with lasting plateau depolarizations. It is unknown whether these plateaus are local events that boost the synaptic signals or they propagate to the soma and directly take part in setting the cell firing dynamics.

Mathematical study of a nonlinear neuron multi-dendritic model [PDF]
Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, 1994 A mathematical model of potential spreading along neuron dendrites is proposed to describe the synaptic transmissions in the so-called cerebellar granule cells, which consist of a nearly spherical soma emitting a finite number of dendrites. The model accounts for the nonlinear dependence of the NMDA receptors, located at the virtual ends of any ...

A Mathematical Modelling of Initiation of Dendritic Cells-Induced T Cell Immune Response [PDF]
International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2019 Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent specialized antigen-presenting cells as now known, which play a crucial role in initiating and amplifying both the innate and adaptive immune responses. Immunologically, the motilities and T cell activation capabilities of DCs are closely related to the resulting immune responses. However, due to the complexity
