摘要
The effect of nifurtimox and 5-nitro-2-thienylmalononitrile (5NO2TM), a novel compound with anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity, upon vitality and HSP60 immunoreactivity of epimastigotes, has been determined. Both products showed no activity against epimastigotes at 0.1 μg/ml, while at 0.5 and 1 μg/ml, after 24 h of incubation, densities of these groups were significantly reduced, when compared to controls. An enhancement of HSP60 immunoreactivity was observed after 24 h in groups treated with 0.5 and 1 μg/ml nifurtimox. On the other hand, 5NO2TM had no effect.
