Abstract
SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 1108-1132, June 2024. Abstract.The immune response is a crucial factor in controlling HIV infection. However, oxidative stress poses a significant challenge to the HIV-specific immune response, compromising the body’s ability to control viral replication. In this paper, we develop an HIV infection model to investigate the impact of immune impairment on virus dynamics. We derive the basic reproduction number ([math]) and threshold ([math]). Utilizing the antioxidant parameter as a bifurcation parameter, we establish that the system exhibits saddle-node bifurcation backward and forward bifurcations. Specifically, when [math], the virus will rebound if the antioxidant parameter falls below the post-treatment control threshold. Conversely, when the antioxidant parameter exceeds the elite control threshold, the virus remains under elite control. The region between the two thresholds represents a bistable interval. These results can explain why some HIV-infected patients experience rapid viral rebound after treatment cessation while others achieve post-treatment control for a longer time.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
