Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of immune and tumor cell densities in the presence of a parasite using the prey- predator Volterra-Lotka model in a biological system, assuming that the parasite is either a down or up-regulator of the induced immune cells. Thus, we analysed the model for equal and non equal initial conditions and report their impact on the populations growth.
