Eupomatenoid-5 Isolated from Leaves of Piper regnellii Induces Apoptosis in Leishmania amazonensis

Figure 4

Total ROS production in promastigote forms of L. amazonensis treated with eupomatenoid-5 at 30.0, 85.0, and 170.0  M for 3 and 24 h using the fluorescence probe H2DCFDA. The data are expressed as the mean fluorescence (in arbitrary units) ± SD of at least three independent experiments. * , significant difference compared with the control group (i.e., untreated parasites).
