Melanophore response assay in zebrafish v1

open access: yes, 2018
Melanophores (also called melanocytes) are chromatophores (pigment-containing epithelial cells) that contain black or dark brown pigment granules. The aggregation or dispersal of these cells is under hormonal or nervous system control; these responses ...

Melanophore loss in vps11w66 mutants is due to a caspase-independent mechanism.

open access: yes, 2013
A−C) Dorsal or lateral head images of 2dpf kitw34 control (A, B) or zVAD-fmk (C) treated larvae, beginning at 1dpf. Red asterisks indicate regions of changes in melanophore morphology and number suggesting rescue following zVAD-fmk treatment ...

Diversity and distribution of goby-fry fish in Tomini Bay, Gorontalo, Indonesia

open access: yesFisheries and Aquatic Sciences
Tomini Bay in Gorontalo offers significant potential for amphidromous goby-fry, a group of fish found in at least five estuaries in the area, namely Bone-Bolango, Paguyaman, Bilungala, Tombulilato, and Taludaa Estuaries.

Iridophores influenced melanophore pattern in xanthophore-deficient csf1r mutants.

open access: yes, 2013
(A,B) In stage-matched siblings treated with Mtz, a region on the tail from which iridophores have been ablated (dashed yellow lines in B) exhibits more melanophores than the corresponding region of the control larva (shown here at ∼8.5 SSL). Both larvae

Melanophores inside Frogs

open access: yesInternational Letters of Natural Sciences, 2018
Melanocytes/melanophores were known for some decades as pigment cells in skin. The origin of these cells in embryogenesis from neural crest cells is actively investigated now. Some melanocytes/melanophores were described inside adult vertebrates. Historically, these internal melanocytes have been largely ignored, until recently.

pnp4a Is the Causal Gene of the Medaka Iridophore Mutant guanineless

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
See-through medaka lines are suitable for observing internal organs throughout life. They were bred by crossing multiple color mutants. However, some of the causal genes for these mutants have not been identified.

leads to melanophore death in zebrafish

open access: yes, 2014
Melanin biosynthesis in vertebrates depends on the function of three enzymes of the tyrosinase family, tyrosinase (Tyr), tyrosinase-related protein 1 (Tyrp1), and dopachrome tautomerase (Dct or Tyrp2).

Larval development of Dagetichthys marginatus (Soleidae) obtained from hormone-induced spawning under artificial rearing conditions

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
Dagetichthys marginatus (formerly Synaptura marginata) larvae were laboratory-reared from wild caught adult broodstock as part of an aquaculture research project in temperate South Africa.

Melanophore-Stimulating Substances in Amphibia

open access: yes, 1964
Work begun on this project last summer revealed that grafts of the hypothalamus from embryos and albino larvae of the salamander, Ambystoma tigrinum melanostictum caused melanin dispersion to occur in the melanophores of larval albino hosts of the same ...
