Stability Analysis of a Feedback Model for the Action of theImmune System in Leukemia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 February 2014
Abstract
A mathematical model, coupling the dynamics of short-term stem-like cells and matureleukocytes in leukemia with that of the immune system, is investigated. The model isdescribed by a system of seven delay differential equations with seven delays. Threeequilibrium points E0, E1,E2 are highlighted. The stability and the existence of theHopf bifurcation for the equilibrium points are investigated. In the analysis of themodel, the rate of asymmetric division and the rate of symmetric division are veryimportant.
