Effect of oral administration of α-TEA on survival after P. yoelii 17XL infection in mice. C57BL/6 J mice infected with 4 × 104 iRBCs were orally administered 0, 1, 3, and 10 mg/head/day of α-TEA for 3 days from day 3 after infection. As the control, a solvent control group (0 mg α-TEA) in which the parasite and the solvent were administered was provided. 10 mg/head/day vs. 0, 1, and 3 mg/head/day; P < 0.05. 3 mg/head/day vs. 0 mg/head/day; P < 0.05
