The combined effect of α-TEA and chloroquine on parasitaemia after P. yoelii 17XL infection in mice. C57BL/6J mice infected with 4 × 104 iRBCs were administered 3 mg/head/day of α-TEA and 1 mg/kg/day chloroquine 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 and a control group in which only the parasite was administered were provided. Error bars indicate standard error. Control vs. α-TEA + chloroquine on days 6, 10, and 19; P < 0.05. Control vs. α-TEA on day 8; P < 0.05
