Though previous report suggested that Rab7 recruitment is delayed in Leishmania loaded phagosome34, in our study both Rab7 and LAMP1 molecules showed higher co-localization with CFSE labeled PLD after 12 h of infection in ALS primed MΦs (Fig. 6B,C) (P < 0.05). Here, GPLD1 is linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
