主 题:Chronic hepatitis immune response cell proliferation sensitivity
摘 要:A new mathematical model of chronic hepatitis C virus(HCV)infection incorporating humoral and cell-mediated immune responscs,distinct cell proliferation rates for both uninfected and infected hepatocytes,and antiviral treatment all at once,is formulated and analyzed *** of the model elucidates the existence of multiple equilibrium ***,the model has a locally asymptotically stable disease-free equilibrium(DFE)whenever the basic reproduction number is less than *** sensitivity analysis(***)result exhibits that the most influential(negatively sensitive)parameters on the epidemic threshold are the drug efficacy of blocking virus production and the drug efficacy of removing ***,LSA does not accurately assess uncertainty and scnsitivity in the system and may mislead us since by default this technique holds all other parameters fixed at baseline *** overcome this pitfall,one of the most robust and efficient global sensitivity analysis(GSA)methods,which is Latin hypercube sampling-partial rank correlation coefficient technique,elucidates that the proliferation rate of infected hepatocytes and the drug efficacy of killing infected hep-atocytes are highly sensitive parameters that affect the transmission dynamics of HCV in any *** study suggests that cell proliferation of the infected hepatocytes can be very crucial in controlling disease ***,a future HCV drug that boosts cell-mediated immune response is expected to be quite effective in controlling disease outbreak.
