Figure 4. Effects of ecto-ATPDase inhibitors on in vitro T. cruzi infectivity.

Figure 4

Microphotographs of VERO cell monolayers infected with trypomastigotes not treated (panels A,C,E) or treated with Ecto-ATPDase inhibitors (panels B,D,F). P1 trypomastigotes (Y strain) were pre-treated with ARL 67156, Gadolinium or Suramin at the indicated concentrations, resuspended in medium without inhibitor and used in VERO cells invasion assays. After 24 hours post infection each assay slide was washed and stained with Giemsa. The arrows indicate many internalized amastigotes.
