The inhibitory effect of the aminopeptidase inhibitor bestatin (squares), and Co4 (triangles) on P. falciparum clone 3D7 growth in culture compared with parasites grown in the absence of inhibitor (circles). Data are presented as mean ± SD of 3 independent, triplicate experiments. Parasites grown in the presence of bestatin or Co4 for 24 h exhibit cellular damage and stunted development compared with control parasites grown in the absence of drug (Inset).
