Evaluation of autophagosome formation in promastigotes of Leishmania following treatment with MG132. (A) Promastigotes of Leishmania expressing GFP-ATG8 were treated or not with MG132 (3 μM) and imaged by fluorescence microscopy. (B) The percentage of cells bearing autophagosomes was calculated after treatment with 17-AAG (500 nM) or MG132 (3 μM) for 24 and 48 h. Bars represent mean ± SD of three independent experiments (One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s multiple comparisons test, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001).
