In this study, we developed giant plasma membrane vesicles (GPMVs) from Leishmania amazonensis promastigote membranes to investigate the role of protein‐embedded membranes in methylene blue (MB) photooxidation. Upon MB photoactivation in model lipid membranes (giant unilamellar vesicles, GUVs), a distinct photooxidation effect was observed, marked by ...
