Leishmanicidal activities of sulfonamides on L. infantum promastigotes and axenic amastigotes at 10 μM and IC50 calculation; on intracellular amastigotes at 20 μM and cytotoxicity on human tumor cell lines U937 at 10 μM and HT-29, HeLa and MCF7 at 1 μM. NA, Inactive at tested concentration. A, Active at tested concentration. NC, Not Cytotoxic at tested concentration. C, Cytotoxic at tested concentration. ND, Undetermined. Assays are described in Materials and Methods.
