Inhibition of TgGlo1 enzymatic activity and parasite growth of T. gondii by curcumin. a Inhibitory effects of curcumin on steady-kinetics of rTgGlo1. The purified rTgGlo1 was incubated with decreasing concentrations of curcumin and enzymatic activity was recorded. Enzymatic activity of rTgGlo1 decreased in a dose-dependent manner after treatment with curcumin. b Curcumin inhibition study in T. gondii cultures. T. gondii propagation was inhibited with concentrations of curcumin higher than 5 μM. c Curcumin inhibition study in dose–response experiments with T. gondii. Proliferation of T. gondii was decreased in a dose-dependent manner after treatment with curcumin
