Abstract
Viral immunology is a subdiscipline of immunology which studies the interactions between viruses and immune system. The aim of this work is to model and analyze these interactions by proposing two mathematical models that describe the role of adaptive immune response in infectious diseases caused by viruses such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV). The first model is formulated by delay differential equations (DDEs) that include many special cases existing in the literature. The second model is formulated by partial differential equations (PDEs) in order to describe the evolution in time and space of viral infections. Also, the models integrate the two main modes of virus propagation that are virus-to-cell infection and direct cell-to-cell transmission. Furthermore, the dynamical behaviors of both models are rigorously analyzed. Moreover, biological findings of the analytical results are also presented.
