Figure 1.

General schematic of model reflecting uninfected cells (U), productively infected cells (P) and latently infected cells (L). λ represents target T cell production. β reflects virus infectivity. α_R is the rate of reversion for productively infected cells to latency. α_Q is the activation rate of latently infected cells. Uninfected, productively infected and latently infected cells each have intrinsic death rates represented by δ_U, δ_P and δ_L, respectively.
