Autophagy in Drosophila: From Historical Studies to Current Knowledge

Figure 2

Autophagy induction in the larval Drosophila fat body. Dots positive for mCherry-Atg8a (red), representing autophagosomes and autolysosomes, are rarely seen in fat body cells of well-fed larvae (a). Punctate mCherry-Atg8a structures form in response to starvation (b) or during the wandering period (c). DNA is stained blue.
