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

Figure 8

Cell membrane integrity assay in promastigote forms of L. amazonensis treated with eupomatenoid-5 at (b) 30.0  M, (c) 85.0  M, and (d) 170.0  M for 24 h and stained with PI. The numbers show the percentage of PI-positive parasites in (a) and (b). (a) corresponds to the control group (i.e., untreated parasites). Typical histograms of at least three independent experiments are shown.
