Realization of immune response features by dynamical system models by Mika Yoshida, Kinji Fuchikami, Tatsuya Uezu

“…Among the features of real immune responses that occur whenantigens invade a body are two remarkable features.One is that the number of antibodies produced in the secondary invasionby identical antigens is more than 10 times largerthan in the primary invasion.The other is that more effective antibodies, whichare produced by somatic hypermutationduring the immune response,canneutralize the antigens more quickly.This phenomenon is called''affinity maturation''.…”
