Thyroid hormone regulates distinct paths to maturation in pigment cell lineages

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Thyroid hormone (TH) regulates diverse developmental events and can drive disparate cellular outcomes. In zebrafish, TH has opposite effects on neural crest derived pigment cells of the adult stripe pattern, limiting melanophore population expansion, yet

Establishment of HRAS(G12V) transgenic medaka as a stable tumor model for in vivo screening of anticancer drugs. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Most targeted anticancer drugs have been identified by screening at the molecular or cellular level in vitro. However, many compounds selected by such costly and time-consuming screening do not prove effective against tumors in vivo.

P-Glycoprotein Inhibitor Tariquidar Plays an Important Regulatory Role in Pigmentation in Larval Zebrafish

open access: yesCells, 2021
Zebrafish has emerged as a powerful model in studies dealing with pigment development and pathobiology of pigment diseases. Due to its conserved pigment pattern with established genetic background, the zebrafish is used for screening of active compounds ...

Quantitative measurement of melanophore responses to drugs and hormones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1955
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston UniversityWith the attention of many physiologists, pharmacologists, biochemists, and microbiologists focused upon the cell, the quantitation of the responses of single cell effectors is of current interest.

Melanocortin receptor 1 and black pigmentation in the Japanese ornamental carp (Cyprinus carpio var. Koi)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2013
Colors and their patterns are fascinating phenotypes with great importance for fitness under natural conditions. For this reason and because pigmentation is associated with diseases, much research was devoted to study the genetics of pigmentation in ...

Identification of larvae of two Gymnocanthus (Cottidae) species based on melanophore patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Gymnocanthus herzensteini and Gymnocanthus intermedius (Cottidae) larvae are common in northern Japan, but can be difficult to distinguish. In this study, morphological observations and mitochondrial DNA analyses were conducted to determine if ...

Some features of embryonic development of eggs and larvae of three stripe rockfsh Sebastes trivittatus (Sebastidae) at Primorye (Japan Sea)

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2018
Later embryonic development of Sebastes trivittatus passes in 20 days under water temperature 10 оС (in June-July). During this period, the embryos of S.

Study on the Mechanisms for Melanophore Contraction in Otocinclus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Otocinclus is a very popular catfish, belonging to the order Siluriformes, family Loricariidae. Otocinclus has a very flat dorsal surface and the melanophores in the dorsal dermal skin are distributed in a proper density that allows us to recognize and ...
