ABSTRACT This study characterized the in vitro potencies of antileishmanial agents against intracellular Leishmania donovani amastigotes in primary human macrophages, obtained with or without CD14-positive monocyte enrichment, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-differentiated THP-1 cells, and mouse peritoneal exudate macrophages (PEMs). Host cell-dependent potency was confirmed for pentavalent and trivalent antimony. Fexinidazole was inactive against intracellular amastigotes across the host cell panel. Fexinidazole sulfone, (R)-PA-824, (S)-PA-824, and VL-2098 displayed similar potency in all of the host cells tested.
