The extracts were delivered to Plasmodium berghei-infected mice via the oral or the subcutaneous route. A suppressive effect on the parasitemia seemed to be evident when data regarding the intraperitoneal injection of Pothomorphe umbellata extracts were analyzed. However, a definitive conclusion on an effective antimalarial activity is not possible, as two distinct-\"standard\" and \"slow\"-patterns of parasitemia occurring at similar frequencies in both treated and untreated intraperitoneally infected mice were observed. Nevertheless, the existence of two distinct profiles of parasitemia was not clear among the animals that were infected via the intravenous route. These data indicate the need for further studies on the biological features of the host/parasite interaction in the intraperitoneally P. berghei-infected Swiss mice system to standardize the model and to improve its usefulness in the screening of antimalarial compounds.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":3.58351893845611,"endowment":3.58351893845611,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"10831392","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W1988207306","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":1.681,"citation_percentile":0.85052437,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2014,"count":1},{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":1},{"year":2021,"count":1},{"year":2022,"count":2},{"year":2023,"count":3}],"oa_status":"closed","license":"https://www.elsevier.com/tdm/userlicense/1.0/","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S0014489400944941?httpAccept=text/xml","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S0014489400944941?httpAccept=text/plain","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1006/expr.2000.4494","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10831392","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Malaria Research and Control","Phytochemistry and Bioactivity Studies","Ethnobotanical and Medicinal Plants Studies","Animals","Antimalarials","Brazil","Disease Models, Animal","Female","Malaria","Mice","Parasitemia","Plant Extracts","Plants, Medicinal","Plasmodium berghei"],"mesh_terms":["Animals","Antimalarials","Brazil","Disease Models, Animal","Female","Malaria","Plant Extracts","Plants, Medicinal","Plasmodium berghei","Parasitemia","Mice"],"keywords":["Plasmodium berghei","Parasitemia","Biology","Pharmacology","Malaria","Traditional medicine","In vivo","Intraperitoneal injection","Parasite hosting","Immunology","Plasmodium falciparum","Medicine","Biotechnology"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Good health and well-being"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-03T11:10:32.099920Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
