  • 최근에 인상적으로 건강한 CD4 T 세포의 수치를 기준으로 약물의 투여 여부를 결정하는 STI 치료 기법이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 수학적 생물학 관점에서 이 치료 방법의 유효성을 알아보고, 환자의 면역 시스템을 분석한다. CD4 T 세포의 수치가 고려된 STI 기법은 기존에 제시된 STI 방법과 비교하여 치료기간과 약물 투여량을 각각 감소시켰고, 환자를 LTNP의 상태로 치료하였다. 또한, CD4 T 세포의 수치를 기준으로 약물 투여 여부를 결정하는 방법이 CTLp의 수치를 증가시키는 것과도 관련이 있음을 확인하였다.

  • This paper presents a therapy that uses a constant drug dosage for leading a HIV patient to a LTNP (Long-Tenn Non-Progressor). From analysis of CTLp (Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte precursor) concentration at equilibrium point and bifurcation of equilibrium points, we found the therapy with a drug whose efficacy is less than one brings higher CTLp concentration at the equilibrium point. From this fact, we propose a treatment with constant drug dosage. which can induce LTNP.

  • This paper presents a therapy that uses a constant drug dosage for leading HIV-infected patient to LTNP (Long-Term Non-Progressor). Based on analysis of CTLp (Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte precursor) concentration at equilibrium point and its bifurcation, we found the therapy with a drug whose efficacy is less than a certain level brings higher CTLp concentration at the equilibrium point. We observed a treatment with constant drug dosage whose efficacy is less than full treatment may lead HIV-infected patient to LTNP. It turns out that the treatment whose efficacy is less than full treatment is better in the point of performance on controllability.

  • The objective of this study was to assess antioxidant activities of leaves and fruit powder of Cudrania tricuspidata (CT) with different particle sizes (crude, 500 ㎛, 150 ㎛), and determine the physicochemical properties and microbial counts of pork patties with various levels of CT fruit powder (CTFP) during refrigerated storage. Total phenolic content of crude leaves had the highest value of 3.54 g/100 g (p<0.05). Overall, CT leaves (CTLP) had higher total phenolic content than CTFP (p<0.05). 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity of CTFP was higher than that of CTLP (p<0.05), which showed higher iron chelating ability and reducing power than CTFP (p<0.05). After pork patties were manufactured with 0.5% and 1.0% of CTFP at 500 ㎛, pH, color values, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), and peroxide values (POV) were then measured. The addition of CTFP into pork patties significantly (p<0.05) increased redness and yellowness values of patties. TBARS values of pork patties containing CTFP were lower (p<0.05) than those of CTFP-0 patties after 10 days of storage. Pork patties added with CTFP showed no significant (p>0.05) difference TBARS values among different storage periods. POV values of pork patties containing CTFP were lower than those of the control from 3 days up to the end of refrigerated storage (p<0.05). These results suggest that CTFP could be used as a natural antioxidant to retard lipid oxidation in meat products during refrigerated storage.

  • The interaction of HIV and human immune system was studied in the perspective of dynamics. We summarized the recent researches on drug scheduling using optimal control theory for HIV treatment. The drug treatment to make immune system to work properly is investigated based on mathematical models including memory CTLp. In the simulation results, it was verified that stopping medication after a certain period of treatment can lead a patient to be cured naturally by one s immune system. Also, we summarized and categorized the advantages and disadvantages of each HIV drug scheduling method. In conclusion, model-based predictive control is more efficient for making decision of drug dose than other methods, when there exist uncertainties on model parameters or state variables.
