  4. 1. Introduction ● Virus infection and Epidemic Spreadingare major global health problems. ● Various viruses can infect almost any type of body tissues from brain to skin. ● Viral infections cannot be treated with antibiotics. In some cases the use of antibiotics makes the infection worse. Source:http//www.medterms.com/script/main/ art.asp?articlekey=11557

  5. 1. Introduction ●Two major viruses infected people in the world: ● 1966, B. S. Blumberg: Hepatitis B virus (HBV). ● 1983, F. Barré-Sinoussi and L. Montagnier Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

  8. 1. Introduction herpes zoster virus infection chest-wall virus infection Varicella zoster Virus infection • Against SARS Over 5 hundred kind viruses are able to infect Human Beings .

  9. Why are there unknown reason infections? • Why do some virus infected people have recovered without therapy? • Why do some people appear very sensitive to viruses and become persistent infections? • Why do some anti-HBV/HIV infection therapy patients’ serum viruses have relapsed , and become worse after stopping treatments ?

  10. Whydo wild animals without any prevention have hardly become extinct by attacks of various infectious diseases? • Why do domestic animals more easily die by attacks of infectious diseases? • Why did Influenza during 1918-1919 killed nearly 50 million people, and no similar cases appear now day? • This talk will give some interpretations with some clinic/experimental evidences by modelling dynamics of viral infection and anti-viral infection therapy/epidemic spreading, and not going to address conclusive statements.

  11. 2.1 Epidemic Spreads • Black Death resulted in the deaths of an estimated 75 to 200 millionpeople during 1346-1353, killed 30–60% of Europe's total population. • Influenza pandemic during 1918-1919killed nearly 50 million people worldwide. • SARSpandemic in 2003. WHO: cumulative SARS cases worldwide total of 8,422. Death total of 919.

  12. HEPATITIS B : EPIDEMIOLOGY Prevalence of Chronic HBV Infection, Worldwide • Over 400 million people have chronic HBV infections • More Source: CDC and Prevention. MMWR 2008;57(RR-8):1-20.

  13. 2.2 HBV Infection and Anti-HBV Infection Therapy • 全球超过20亿的人曾感染过乙肝病毒。2 billion people have been infected with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) . • 超过2.4亿的人为慢性(终生)乙肝感染者。 More than 240 million have chronic (lifelong) HBV infections. • 每年有超过78万的人死于急慢性乙型肝炎。More than 780 000 people die every year due to the acute or chronic consequences of hepatitis B. • 慢性乙肝患者可以通过有效的治疗避免死亡。 Effective treatment of chronic HBV infection patient can aim to prevent the death from HBV disease.

  19. 169 HBeAg positive patients received EVT treatment

  20. PEG-IFN alpha, tenofovir (TDF), entecavir (ETN) had been selected as the first-line therapy to initial treatment in naive Chronic HBV infected patients. • In China, some Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have also accepted as one choice to HBV infection therapy. • In particular to the patients who failed for NA treatments. • Source: EASL Clinical Practice Guidelines: management of chronic HBV infection, J. Hepatal 2012: 57: 167-185

  21. Monotone Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment. • TCM + NA combination treatment.

  22. Long-term personalized TCM treatment to suppress HBV 1000 copies/ml was the lowest limit of detection L. Min, Y. Ye, Proc. of The 3rd Int. Conf. On Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering (iCBBE 2009)

Conf. Infecytious Disease; Int. J. Infectious Diseases, 15 Suppl. 2011, S28; Computer Eng. & Appl. (in Chinese), 48(24), 2012:20-27.

  25. TCM Treatments • Evidences show that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) may regulate chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients’ immune functions. • ChiCTR-TRC-10001263 was a double-bind randomized placebo-controlled trial. • Two kinds of TCMs were used in the trial: Tiaoganjianpihuoxue grain (TCM1) and Tiaoganjieduhuashi grain (TCM2).

  26. A total of 560 CHB Chinese patients with HBeAg-positive were randomly assigned, in 1:1 ratio, two groups: experimental group (EXG) and controlled group (CTG), and each group are further divided into 3 subgroups. • CTG received 10 mg of ADV + placebo for TCM orally daily for 48 weeks. • Roughly speaking, EXG received TCM1 or TCM2 +placebo for ADV orally daily for the first 24 weeks, and then switched to TCM2 + ADV for additional 24 weeks.

  27. Results: ●28 /31 patients in EXG /CTG achieved complete response. ● 42 /55 in EXG / CTG responded poorly. • The TCMs + AD therapy resulted significantly in increased proportion of patients achieving HBeAg loss in EXG two subgroups than the two CTG subgroups. • The other virologic and biochemical responses of CG and EG had not significant differences at week 48.

  30. Seven chimpanzees were inoculated 1 to 1010 genome equivalents (GE) of HBV DNA. HBV DNA of five chimpanzees was lower than undetectable levels at or before week 39. Two chimpanzees inoculated with a dosage of 10 GE of HBV DNA, suffered prolonged or persistent infection. HBV DNA peaks of some animals with 1-1010 inoculated HBV are almost the same!!! Suppressed HBV loads were relapsed and then suppressed in 4 animals S. F. Weiland 13th ISVHLD, March, 20-24, 2009, Washington

  35. The first and only man to be cured of HIV infection is Timothy Ray Brown treated for his HIV infection with a normal anti-HIV drug regimen. • When he developed leukemia, he underwent twice bone marrow transplants. • His HIV became imeidately undetectable after the first bone marrow transplants. • Five years later, Brown remains HIV free. • Sourcehttp://www.webmd.com/hiv-aids/features/hiv-cure-in-reach

  36. It is a long way to against HIV • An HIV infected baby from Mississippi received treatment medications just 30 hours after birth. • Another HIV infected baby from California was treated when she was only 4 hours old. • The California baby is still HIV-negative almost a year after birth. • The Mississippi baby tested HIV-free for more than 2 years, but is now HIV-positive again. • http://www.webmd.com/hiv-aids/features/hiv-cure-in-reach

  40. 模型有两个常数解(平衡点):Two constant solution (equilibrium points) • Q1----- 康复平衡点(代表宿主痊愈) • host's disease-free (virus free steady- • state) . • Q2 ----- 带毒平衡点(代表宿主持续感染) • host's persistent infection (endemic • steady-state).

  41. 基本病毒复制数: Basic reproduce number: • I.R0< 1,则 Q1 是大范围吸引的. • If R 0< 1, then Q1is globally attractive. II. R 0 >1, 则 Q2 是大范围吸引的. • 如果 • If R 0 > 1, then Q2is globally attractive. Source: P. D. Leenheer, H. L. Smith, SIAM J. Appl. Math. 63, 2003, 1313-1327.

  42. 基本病毒复制数:Basic reproduce number: Theoretical suggestionsI. 具有R 0< 1的无症状病毒感染者,即使感染大量病毒也能自愈 ● Non-symptom infected individual with R0< 1 will recover eventually even infected a large amount virus. II. 具有R0 >1的无症状病毒感染者,即使感染1个病毒也成为持续带毒者. ●Non-symptom infected individual with R 0> 1 will become persistent infection even infected one virus.

  43. ● R0中的λ/d 项表示患者肝细胞的总数量。 Term λ/d in R0 represents the total number of cells of the patients liver. ● 这意味着肝脏大的患者比肝脏小的感染者更容易持续带毒。 This implies that an individual with larger liver will more easily become persistent infection than the one with smaller liver. ● R0的实际意义有异议的. The practical meaning of R0 is questionable . Source: L Min, Y Su , Y Kuang, Rocky Mountain J. Math. 8, 2008, 1573-1585.

  45. Theorem 1 (L. Min, Y. Su & Y. Kuang 2008, Y. Zheng, L. Min, Y. Ji & Y. Kuang 2010) If R0= βk/au≤ 1. Then Q1 is globally attractive. Non-symptom infected individual with R0= βk/au< 1 will recover eventually even infected a large amount virus. Since R0 is independent on λ/d, our model gives a more reasonable description than that of Nowak et al’s basic virus infection Model. • Source: L Min, Y Su, Y Kuang, Rocky Mountain J.

  46. Theorem 2 (Y. Zheng, L. Min, Y. Ji & Y. Kuang 2010) If R0= βk/au> 1. Then Q2 is globally attractive. Non-symptom infected individual with R0 = βk/au> 1 will become persistent infection even infected one virus.
