Abstract:
Immune memory can be regarded as an equilibrium state of immune network system with nonlinear dynamical behavior. The rapid response of immune systems to the secondary antigen is owing to the stable structure of memory state forming by a closed idiotypic immune network. Internal image of an antigen is defined while memory state is formed via such network. Antibody chain based on tree structure is proposed which explains how the memory state is formed in the immune network. We also propose a network dynamics model of idiotypic immune network based on cross-reactive correlation matrix to explain the artificial immune memory.
