CHROMATOPHORES

Biological Reviews, 1930
Summary.Chromatophores, the parts concerned with the colour changes in animals, are best developed in the cephalopods, the crustaceans, and the three lower classes of vertebrates, the fishes, amphibians, and reptiles. In the cephalopods chromato‐ phores are really diminutive organs in that each one consists of a central coloured cell which is expanded ...

The physiology of flatfish chromatophores

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2002
AbstractMost flatfish, of the order Pleuronectiformes, possess a white lower side, and a brown or grey upper side. This upper side can display integumentary patterning with dark areas and colored or white spots. Chromatophores in flatfish are dermal and epidermal melanophores, as well as dermal xanthophores, erythrophores, iridophores, and leucophores,

Ultrastructure of cephalopod chromatophore organs

Zeitschrift f�r Zellforschung und Mikroskopische Anatomie, 1968
The chromatophore organs of Loligo opalescens are composed of five different types of cells: the chromatophore proper; radial muscle fibers; neuronal processes (axons); glial cells; and chromatophoral sheath cells. The surface of a retracted chromatophore is extensively folded, but upon contraction of the radial muscle fibers it becomes flattened and ...

Chromatophore Effect of Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone

Nature, 1954
ADRENOCORTICOTROPHIC hormone preparations produce an effect1 similar to and even more pronounced than that of the pituitary chromatophore hormone intermedine2. When either of these hormones is injected into pale frogs, the melanophores ‘expand’ and the skin darkens. The identity of the two hormones has been assumed3 but contested4. In the frog, however,

Proteins exposed at the surface of chromatophores of Rhodospirillum rubrum. The orientation of isolated chromatophores

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1978
The exposure of proteins at the surface of isolated chromatophores (i.e., the cytoplasmic face of intracytoplasmic membranes) of Rhodospirillum rubrum was studied by proteolysis as well as by enzymatic iodination with 125I. Analyses were performed after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of chromatophore proteins solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Reaction to Light of Iris-Chromatophores

Nature, 1955
FIELD workroom observations in this Sanctuary show that intensity of daylight controls reaction of chromatophore cells in irises of the male duck Netta erythropthalma (Wied.). A minor field characteristic of the male African pochard is the brilliant vermilion iris—a feature easily discernible with binoculars at up to about a hundred yards. The female's
