Fig. 6

Ultrastructural changes in T. gondii-infected Vero cells with or without BAM15 treatment. T. gondii in the control group proliferated in the form of endodyogeny within PVs (A, B). After 8 or 24 h, BAM15 treatment induced tachyzoite mitochondrial vacuolation and autolysis, as shown in C, D. The red arrows indicate swollen, denatured mitochondria, and the red boxes indicate T. gondii vacuolation. Scale bars: 2 μm (A, C, D); 5 μm (B)
