Electron immunocytochemical assay to determine the location of PHB1 in L. major promastigote forms after treatment with H2O2. a In cells treated with 25 mM H2O2 gold particles are visible in the flagellar pocket (FP), nucleus (N) and some in the kinetoplast membrane. The micrograph shows membrane evaginations similar to ectosomes. Arrows point to groups of gold labels associated with free exovesicles of approximately 100 nm at the periphery of the parasite. b In cells treated with 100 μM of H2O2 the gold labels are visible in the membrane, the flagellar pocket, and the flagellar membrane
