Lipid-rich structures are frequently observed in Leishmania spp., yet their morphological diversity and stage-specific distribution remain insufficiently described. Here, we performed an ultrastructural and fluorescence-based characterization of Leishmania (L.) amazonensis promastigotes and intracellular amastigotes using transmission electron ...
