FIG. 3.

In vivo babesiacidal activity of longicin. (A) Therapeutic effect of a single treatment dose. Arrows and an arrowhead indicate administration of longicin and 60% reduction of parasitemia, respectively. (B) Representative images of the parasites from mice treated with longicin (3.0 mg/kg). Longicin blocked parasite invasion but not host erythrocyte rupture. (C) Growth inhibition was dependent on the dose of longicin. (D) Growth inhibition by a double treatment with longicin. The error bars indicate SEM.
