Figure 4

Intracellular killing effect of PMC203 in M. tb infected macrophages. Macrophages were infected with (A,B) M. tb H37Rv and (C,D), XDR M. tb, treated with PMC203 cell extract along with control drugs, and incubated 3 days. After incubation, viable bacilli were calculated by (A,C) CFU enumeration assay and observed by a light microscope after (B,D) acid-fast bacilli staining. These experiments were carried out in triplicate. Values are expressed as mean values and standard deviations. *Statistical significance with controls was analyzed using Graph Pad Prism 9.1.1, one-way ANOVA (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001).
