Susceptibility/resistance of parasites to microbicidal activity of classically activated macrophages. Monocyte-derived macrophages were incubated in absence or presence of human rIFNγ (10 ng/mL) for 24 h; then parasites from different days of culture (2nd, 6th, or 10th) were added. rIFNγ-treated macrophages were also treated with LPS (50 ng/mL). After 72 h of incubation, cells were stained and evaluated under a light microscope (1000x). Data show median and minimal and maximal values from 6 donors in 2 independent experiments. * P < 0.05 (2nd versus 6th day; 2nd versus 10th day - Medium or IFNγ/LPS); # P < 0.05 (medium versus IFNγ/LPS).
