Thyroid hormone regulates distinct paths to maturation in pigment cell lineages
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]
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.

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

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

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