Dynamics of a diffusive HTLV and HIV coinfection model with macrophages, latent cells and two delays

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: T cells are considered. Four reproduction number and four equilibria, namely, infection-free equilibrium, HIV infection equilibrium, HTLV infection equilibrium and HTLV and HIV coinfection equilibrium, are calculated and proved the global asymptotic stability of the coinfection model. Numerical simulations are executed to showcase the corresponding theoretical outcomes and uncover how macrophages and latently infected cells influence the dynamics of HTLV and HIV coinfection.
