Protein Kinase A Signaling Inhibits Iridophore Differentiation in Zebrafish

Journal of Developmental Biology, 2018
In zebrafish (Danio rerio), iridophores are specified from neural crest cells and represent a tractable system for examining mechanisms of cell fate and differentiation.

Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

Morphological Characteristics and Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Three Different Phenotypes of Pristella maxillaris

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
Pristella maxillaris is known as the X-ray fish based on its translucent body. However, the morphological characteristics and the molecular regulatory mechanisms of these translucent bodies are still unknown. In this study, the following three phenotypes,

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

Известия 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.

Epigenetic dynamics shaping melanophore and iridophore cell fate in zebrafish

Genome Biology, 2021
Background Zebrafish pigment cell differentiation provides an attractive model for studying cell fate progression as a neural crest progenitor engenders diverse cell types, including two morphologically distinct pigment cells: black melanophores and ...

transparent, a gene affecting stripe formation in Zebrafish, encodes the mitochondrial protein Mpv17 that is required for iridophore survival

Biology Open, 2013
Summary In the skin of adult zebrafish, three pigment cell types arrange into alternating horizontal stripes, melanophores in dark stripes, xanthophores in light interstripes and iridophores in both stripes and interstripes.

Melanophores inside Frogs

International 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.
