Mathematical model of immune response to hepatitis B [PDF]
J. Theor. Biol. 447, 98-110 (2018), 2018 A new detailed mathematical model for dynamics of immune response to hepatitis B is proposed, which takes into account contributions from innate and adaptive immune responses, as well as cytokines. Stability analysis of different steady states is performed to identify parameter regions where the model exhibits clearance of infection, maintenance of a ...
