The Nature of the Response of Scale Melanophores of the Teleost Fish, Pseudorasbora parva, to Light

open access: yes, 2003
textThe primary color response of innervated and denervated scale melanophores of the adult motsugo, Pseudorasbora parva, was investigated. The intensity of the light used for illumination was about 2,000 ~ 10,000 lux. Innervated melanophores remained in

Melanophores in Damselfish Neurofibromatosis: Alterations in Morphology and Melanosome Aggregation Responses

open access: yes, 1996
Damselfish neurofibromatosis (DNF) is a neoplastic disease affecting bicolor damselfish Pornacentrus partitus on south Florida reefs. This disease exhibits many traits in common with neurofibromatosis type‐1 in humans, including multiple plexiform ...

Creation of body color mutants by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
Largemouth bass (LMB, Microterus salmoides) is an important commercial freshwater fish, and body color is a key economic trait for quality improvement. Gene editing has not been established in LMB due to the unavailability of one-cell fertilized eggs. In

Myosin cooperates with microtubule motors during organelle transport in melanophores

open access: yes, 1998
Melanophores offer an outstanding system for the study of intracellular motility. These cells aggregate their pigment-filled melanosomes to the cell center or disperse them throughout the cytoplasm in response to hormonal modulation of intracellular ...

On the embryonic origin of adult melanophores: the role of ErbB and Kit signalling in establishing melanophore stem cells in zebrafish

open access: yes, 2013
Pigment cells in vertebrates are derived from the neural crest (NC), a pluripotent and migratory embryonic cell population. In fishes, larval melanophores develop during embryogenesis directly from NC cells migrating along dorsolateral and ventromedial ...

Nigella sativa seed extract and its bioactive compound thymoquinone: the new melanogens causing hyperpigmentation in the wall lizard melanophores

open access: yes, 2011
Objective The effects of the lyophilized seed extract of Nigella sativa and its active ingredient, thymoquinone, were studied on the isolated melanophores of the wall lizard to find the mechanism of skin darkening at the cellular level.
