Isolation of Chromatophores from Brown Trout (Salmo trutta) Skin

open access: yesFishes, 2022
As new techniques for single-cell analysis are evolving, there is a growing need for streamlined and flexible protocols for single-cell suspension preparation and single-cell isolation.

Photosensitivity of Chromatophores [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Zoologist, 1983
Almost all major phyla of invertebrates and lower vertebrates display a direct sensitivity of their chromatophores to light by either dispersing or—in rare cases—aggregating the pigment granules within the cell. This “primary response” of color change is an accessory component of the “dermal light sense” and characterizes the chromatophores as an ...

Effect of replacing fishmeal with spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) powder on growth, survival, body coloration, and meat quality in the freshwater prawn Macrobrachium caementarius

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society
Microalgae are a valuable source of nutrients that are widely used in aquaculture to support the growth of aquatic species. This study aimed to assess the effect of replacing fishmeal with Spirulina powder (Arthrospira platensis) on the growth, survival,

Ultrastructure of the dermal chromatophores in the Fringe-toed lizard, Acanthodactylus orientalis

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2017
Histology and electron microscopic studies of the dorsal skin of the Fringe-toed lizard, Acanthodactylus orientalis Angel, 1936, showed three types of dermal chromatophores: xanthophores, iridophores and melanophores. These pigment cells were observed in

A new species of Boehlkea (Characiformes: Characidae: Stevardiinae) from the rio Japurá, Amazon basin, Brazil

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2017
A new species of Boehlkea is described from rio Japurá, Amazon basin. The new species differs from B. fredcochui by the presence of a vertically elongate humeral spot (vs. absence), complete lateral line (vs.

Aspidoras mephisto, new species: The first troglobitic Callichthyidae (Teleostei: Siluriformes) from South America.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Aspidoras mephisto n. sp. is described from the Anésio-Russão cave system, upper Tocantins River basin, Goiás, Brazil. The species can be readily distinguished from its congeners by troglomorphic features and also by presenting the following combination ...

The influence of chromatic background on the photosensitivity of tilapia erythrophores

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
Summary Non-mammalian vertebrates and invertebrates use extraretinal photoreceptors to detect light and perform diverse non-image-forming functions. Compared to well-studied visual systems, the effect of ambient light conditions on photosensory systems ...

Melanocortin systems on pigment dispersion in fish chromatophores

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2012
Alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) is responsible for pigment dispersion in the chromatophores of fish and other tetrapods such as amphibians and reptiles.
