Abstract
IBARGUEN-MONDRAGON, EDUARDO and ESTEVA, LOURDES. A Mathematical Model on Mycobacterium tuberculosis Dynamics into the Granuloma. Rev.colomb.mat. [online]. 2012, vol.46, n.1, pp.39-65. ISSN 0034-7426.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the response of T cells and macrophages in the control of Mtb into the granuloma. To this end, we propose a system of ordinary differential equations to model the interaction among uninfected macrophages, infected macrophages, T cells and Mtb bacilli into the granuloma.
