Fig. 1From: In vitro biological action of aqueous extract from roots of Physalis angulata against Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensisAEPa action against L. (L.) amazonenis in vitro. Growth curve of L. (L.) amazonensis promastigotes treated with different concentrations of Amphotericin B (AMPB) (a) and AEPa. b Growth was followed up to 96 h. c Effect of AEPa on intracellular amastigote survival of L. (L.) amazonensis. Infected mouse peritoneal macrophages were treated with different concentrations of the extract, for1h/day during 3 days and with glucantime ® (GLU). Results are from experiments performed in triplicate. *p < 0.001, *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 compared with control (untreated). CTL: controlBack to article page
