We have developed a mathematical model that quantifies lymphocyte infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and lymphocyte protection by blocking agents such as soluble CD4. We use this model to suggest standardized parameters for quantifying viral infectivity and to suggest techniques for calculating these parameters from well-mixed infectivity assays. We discuss the implications of the model for our understanding of the infectious process and virulence of HIV in vivo.
我们已经开发出一种数学模型,该模型可量化人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)对淋巴细胞的感染以及诸如可溶性CD4等阻断剂对淋巴细胞的保护作用。我们使用此模型来建议用于量化病毒感染性的标准化参数,并建议从充分混合的感染性试验中计算这些参数的技术。我们讨论了该模型对于我们理解HIV在体内的感染过程和毒力的意义。
