Melanosome transfer, photoreception and toxicity assays in melanophores

, 2009
Many animals such as fish and frogs have developed the ability to change colour of their skin to adapt to the environment or to signal to other individuals. This ability is due to specialised skin cells called melanophores. Melanophores contain thousands

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

Aquaculture 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

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

, 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 ...

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

, 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 ...

Localization and characterization of adrenergic receptors on frog skin melanophores

, 1981
The functional location of adrenergic binding sites was studied in frog skin melanophores by injecting norepinephrine (NE) outside and inside a melanophore.

Intermediate filaments spatially organize intracellular nanostructures to produce the bright structural blue of ribbontail stingrays across ontogeny

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
In animals, pigments but also nanostructures determine skin coloration, and many shades are produced by combining both mechanisms. Recently, we discovered a new mechanism for blue coloration in the ribbontail stingray Taeniura lymma, a species with ...
