title: [Trypanocidal activity of some ellipticine derivatives against Trypanosoma cruzi cultured in vitro].
abstract: Some ellipticine derivatives showing antitumoral behaviour exhibit a trypanocide activity against in vitro cultures of T. cruzi. 9-Methoxy-6-methyl-ellipticine is the most active compound of this series: its lethal effect is comparable with that of ethidium bromide.
