Regulation of dynamic pigment cell states at single-cell resolution [PDF]

eLife, 2020
Cells bearing pigment have diverse roles and are often under strict evolutionary selection. Here, we explore the regulation of pigmented cells in the purple sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, an emerging model for diverse pigment function. We took

A Cross‐Sectional Study of Platelet‐to‐Lymphocyte Ratio in Relation to Pigment Cell Nevi and Atypical Mole Syndrome [PDF]

Health Science Reports
Background and Aims Melanocytic nevi (MN) and atypical melanocytic nevi (AMN) are established risk factors for cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM), with patients exhibiting atypical mole syndrome (AMS) facing an even greater risk.

Frontiers in pigment cell and melanoma research. [PDF]

Pigment Cell Melanoma Res, 2018
AbstractIn this perspective, we identify emerging frontiers in clinical and basic research of melanocyte biology and its associated biomedical disciplines. We describe challenges and opportunities in clinical and basic research of normal and diseased melanocytes that impact current approaches to research in melanoma and the dermatological sciences.

Pigment Cell Differentiation in Sea Urchin Blastula-Derived Primary Cell Cultures

Marine Drugs, 2014
The quinone pigments of sea urchins, specifically echinochrome and spinochromes, are known for their effective antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, and antitumor activities. We developed in vitro technology for inducing pigment differentiation in cell

Attachment of −tBu groups to aza-BODIPY core at 3,5-sites with ultra-large Stokes shift to enhance photothermal therapy through apoptosis mechanism

Materials Today Bio, 2022
By the introduction of the −tBu groups into aza-BODIPY core, di-tert-butyl-substituted aza-BODIPYs at 3,5-sites (tBuazaBDPs) were prepared for the first time. Based on the X-ray analysis of CN-tBuazaBDP, this molecular structure is twisted. Near-infrared

Type II Opsins in the Eye, the Pineal Complex and the Skin of Xenopus laevis: Using Changes in Skin Pigmentation as a Readout of Visual and Circadian Activity

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
The eye, the pineal complex and the skin are important photosensitive organs. The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, senses light from the environment and adjusts skin color accordingly.

Multiple pigment cell types contribute to the black, blue, and orange ornaments of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The fitness of male guppies (Poecilia reticulata) highly depends on the size and number of their black, blue, and orange ornaments. Recently, progress has been made regarding the genetic mechanisms underlying male guppy pigment pattern formation, but we ...

Distinct interactions of Sox5 and Sox10 in fate specification of pigment cells in medaka and zebrafish. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2018
Mechanisms generating diverse cell types from multipotent progenitors are fundamental for normal development. Pigment cells are derived from multipotent neural crest cells and their diversity in teleosts provides an excellent model for studying ...
