Abstract  Based on the fact that tumor cells not only stimulate the proliferation of immune
effector cells but also have the inhibiting effect on the growth of the cells, a tumor-immune dynamical
model is described by expressing the comprehensive effect of tumor cells on immune system with a
positive or negative action rate coefficient. By investigating the global dynamics of the model, it is
found that the saddle-node bifurcation and the bistable phenomenon may occur, which implies that
that the final state of tumor development depends on the initial state, and the corresponding threshold
conditions are obtained. And the effect of the intrinsic input of effector cells and the action rate
coefficient of tumor cells on effector cells on the dynamics of the model is analyzed. The obtained
results show that the model may have complex dynamical behaviors when the inhibition effect of
tumor cells on effector cells is strong enough.

一类肿瘤-免疫系统动力学性态的全局分析

基于肿瘤细胞对免疫效应细胞的增殖有刺激和抑制两方面作用的事实, 将其
综合作用以可正可负的作用率系数来描述. 完整分析了肿瘤细胞与效应细胞相互作用
