Abstract

In this work, we study a mathematical model describing the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) with the adaptive immune response, three saturated rates and therapy. The considered adaptive immunity is constituted by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) immune cells and antibodies; the three saturated rates describe the viral infection, the CTLs and the antibodies proliferations. Two types of treatments are integrated into the model; the objective of the first one is to reduce the infected cells number, however the role of the second is to obstruct the free viruses expansion. The positivity and boundedness of solutions are proved. The local stability of the disease free steady state and the infection steady states is studied. Numerical simulations are performed in order to show the behavior of solutions, the effect of the antibodies proliferation saturated rate and the effectiveness of the incorporated therapies in controlling HIV replication.
