The action of reserpine on teleost melanophores

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1973
Abstract Reserpine caused darkening of both pencil fish and angelfish, this effect lasted for at least 10 and 25 days respectively. The aggregation of pigment granules within the melanophores evoked by stimulation of the nerves supplying the melanophores was inhibited by reserpine in both species.

The cytoskeleton in fish melanophore melanosome positioning

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2002
AbstractMelanophore melanosomes organelles can be regulated to move and locate correspondingly to many other different organelle types. Comparing lessons from analysis of a specific melanosome distribution can, therefore, contribute to the understanding of distribution of other organelles, and vice versa.

Melanophore Recombinant Receptor Systems

2000
This chapter describes the development and application of a Xenopus laevis melanophore recombinant system to study receptor-ligand interactions. Many Poikilothermie vertebrates possess the ability to change their skin color rapidly. The cells responsible for these variations in appearance are called chromatophores and depending on the animal, a variety

Proliferation of amphibian melanophores in vitro

Developmental Biology, 1974
Abstract Melanophores were isolated from the tail skin of bullfrog tadpoles and cultured in vitro . Cell proliferation occurred 3–4 weeks after inoculation and the cells doubled their number about every 5 days to form a colony of uniformly pigmented melanophores.

Control of Melanophores in Amphibians

1966
In the vast literature which has accumulated during the last fifty years concerning the regulation of vertebrate melanophores, studies on the pituitary and its hormone, intermedin (MSH, MDH, chromatotrophic hormone, etc.) have dominated the field (for literature see Parker [23], Fingerman [14], Waring [26]).
