Abstract

In this paper, following a previous paper ([32] Permanence and extinction of a non-autonomous HIV-1 model with two time delays, preprint) on the permanence and extinction of a delayed non-autonomous HIV-1 within-host model, we introduce and investigate a delayed HIV-1 model including maximum homeostatic proliferation rate of CD4+T-cells and varying coefficients. By applying the asymptotic analysis theory and oscillation theory, we show: (i) the system will be permanent when the threshold value R*> 1, and for this case we also obtain the explicit estimate of the eventual lower bound of the HIV-1 virus load; (ii) the threshold value R* < 1 implies the extinction of the virus. Furthermore, we obtain that the threshold dynamics is in agreement with that of the corresponding autonomous system, which extends the classic results for the system with constant coefficients. Numerical simulations are also given to illustrate our main results, and in particular, some sensitivity test of R*is established.
