Exosome Secretion by the Parasitic Protozoan Leishmania within the Sand Fly Midgut
Despite several studies describing the secretion of exosomes by Leishmania in vitro, observation of their formation and release in vivo has remained a major challenge. Herein, we show that Leishmania constitutively secretes exosomes within the lumen of the sand fly midgut through a mechanism homolog...
