title: [Cultivation of exo-erythrocytic schizonts of rodent Plasmodium in hepatocytes: a new experimental model for chemotherapy of malaria].
abstract: An in vitro experimental model using primary cultures of laboratory bred Thamnomys gazellae's hepatocytes and Plasmodium yoelii yoelii' sporozoites was set up for chemotherapeutic studies. The surface of the culture was reduced (0.5 cm) and allowed the rapid performance and analysis of schizonticide activity tests, with a reduced biological material (Rodents, Anopheles, sporozoites). Fifteen compounds were tested. When activity of molecules is known in vivo, both results in vivo and in vitro are parallel.
