Extracts from the culture filtrate or mycelium were generally inactive against the parasites except the #Zucoagaricus$ genus mycelium extract which reduced by 47% the number of bloodstream forms. Striatin A, striatin B and podoscyphic acid exhibited in vitro activity at 10,5 and 100 micrograms/mL, respectively. One compound showed activity against bloodstream forms of #T. cruzi$, the sesquiterpenoid naematolin, lysing the parasites by 79%. BALB/c mice infected with #L. amazonensis$ were treated three weeks post-infection with striatin A and striatin B by subcutaneous route for 15 days at 10 mg/kg daily. The reference drug, N-methylglucamine antimonate, administered by subcutaneous injections at 28 mg Sbv/kg/day for 15 days reduced the parasite burden by 71,2% (p<0,05). Subcutaneous administration of striatin A at 10 mg/kg produced a weak decrease of the parasite burdens in the footpad by 17,6%. The treatment with striatin B had no effect and showed higher toxicity than striatin A. (Résumé d'auteur) %$ 052PHLEIS03 ; 052GLOTRY03 ; 076PLAMED03
