The protoscolicidal activity of antifolates in vitro. Vitality of protoscoleces (PSCs) following in vitro treatment with different concentrations of antifolates. Statistically significant differences were compared by analysis of variance (ANOVA). A value of P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. (A) Praziquantel, ANOVA: F (3, 24) = 10.87, P < 0.0001. (B) Methotrexate, ANOVA: F (3, 28) = 0.3907, P = 0.7606. (C) Aminopterin, ANOVA: F (3, 28) = 0.4456, P = 0.7223. (D) Pyrimethamine, ANOVA: F (3, 28) = 4.431, P = 0.0114. (E) Trimethoprim, ANOVA: F (3, 28) = 4.444, P = 0.113. Data shown are mean values from three experiments.
