A mathematical model for within-host Toxoplasma gondii invasion dynamics by Adam Sullivan, Folashade Agusto, Sharon Bewick, Chunlei Su, Suzanne Lenhart, Xiaopeng Zhao

“…The model considers theinvasion process, egress kinetics, interconversion between fast-replicatingtachyzoite stage and slowly replicating bradyzoite stage, as well as thehost's immune response. Analytical and numerical studies of the model can helpto understand the influences of various parameters to the transient andsteady-state dynamics of the disease infection.…”

Modelling and analysis of a delayed viral infection model with follicular dendritic cell by Yan Geng, Jinhu Xu

“…In this paper, we propose a new viral infection model by incorporating a new compartment for follicular dendritic cell (FDC), nonlinear incidence, CTL immune response, and two intracellular delays. The main purpose of the paper is to make an improvement and supplement to the global dynamics of the model proposed by Callaway and Perelson (2002), in which global stability has not been studied. …”
