Dynamics of tumor–CD4+–cytokine–host cells interactions with treatments

作者:

Highlights:

• Models of interactions between tumor and immune system are studied.

• There is window of opportunity for clear off tumor due to bistability.

• Host cells and mechanism of CD4 production are critical in regulating tumor dynamics.
