Inhibition of choline uptake by novel antimalarials. (A) Concentration-dependent inhibition by T16 of [3H]-choline (15 μM) uptake into isolated P falciparum parasites over 10 minutes at 22°C. Data are mean ± SD for duplicate observations from 3 individual experiments. (B) Lineweaver-Burke (double reciprocal) plot of choline uptake as a function of external choline concentration into isolated P falciparum parasites over 10 minutes at 22°C. Data are presented for choline alone (○) or choline in the presence of 10 μM pentamidine (•). Data are mean ± SD for duplicate observations from 3 individual experiments.
