dc.description.abstractThe cell-mediated immune response is a very important part of the defence mechanism against cancer. In this paper, we present a model of the cellular immune response to leukemia. The model is developed with statistical methods analogous to those of kinetic theory. The cells of the interacting populations are characterized by a microscopic functional state variable. The development of the concept of inner functional state is considered. A new possibility for definition of the activation state, suitable for experimental evaluation, for three particular cell populations is proposed. The presented simulations are related to the modelling of three types of vaccinations. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
