Modelling the immune response to malaria with ecological concepts: short-term behaviour against long-term equilibrium.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 1992

Hellriegel B

Abstract excerpt

A model for the human immune response to the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is used to analyse the dynamics of an infection within an individual patient. Previous models either looked at competition between two parasite genotypes or at one parasite clone and the immune response to it. This model describes the course of an infection caused by the blood stages of two parasite genotypes differing in...
