Figure 5. The microbicidal effect of neutrophils from C57BL/6 is dependent on Nitric Oxide.

Figure 5

(A) Increased production of nitrite found in the supernatant co-cultures of neutrophils from C57BL/6 after 24 hours. (B) Inhibition of NO production in the presence of selective inhibitor (L-NIL) and interference on the parasite growth in macrophages from C57BL/6. After 7 days the released parasites were counted in a Neubauer chamber. Measurements were performed in triplicate from three different experiments. Statistical significance was determined by ANOVA. When *p≤0.05 compared to infected macrophage and +p≤0.05 compared with alive PMN.
