A mathematical study of the role of tBregs in breast cancer

If the tumour carying capacity is bounded from below, then the breast tumour will eventually reach its carrying capacity due to the effect of an increasing population of tBregs, i.e. $T \nearrow \frac{1}{b}$ when $B \nearrow$ .

Abstract

A model for the mathematical study of immune response to breast cancer is proposed and studied, both analytically and numerically. It is a simplification of a complex one, recently introduced by two of the present authors. It serves for a compact study of the dynamical role in cancer promotion of a relatively recently described subgroup of regulatory B cells, which are evoked by the tumour.
