Pigment Cells and Pigment Cell Tumors in Fish [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1989
The three basic pigment cell types found in poikilothermic vertebrates, melanocytes (melanin-producing cells), erythrophores (red or yellow pigment cells), and iridophores (iridescence-producing cells), are derived from neural crest. Neoplasms of pigment cells in fish are also of three phenotypes, melanomas (melanophoromas), erythrophoromas, and ...

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 ...

Pigmentation and sporulation are alternative cell fates in Bacillus pumilus SF214. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Bacillus pumilus SF214 is a spore forming bacterium, isolated from a marine sample, able to produce a matrix and a orange-red, water soluble pigment. Pigmentation is strictly regulated and high pigment production was observed during the late stationary ...

Profound Re-Organization of Cell Surface Proteome in Equine Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells in Response to In Vitro Culturing [PDF]

, 2012
The purpose of this study was to characterize the cell surface proteome of native compared to cultured equine retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells. The RPE plays an essential role in visual function and represents the outer blood-retinal barrier.

Ontogeny of melanophore photosensitivity in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Biology Open, 2014
Migratory species experience morphological and physiological changes during transitions between different life stages. In particular, modification of sensory systems is critical for animals to adapt to new environments.

Blue, Black, and Stripes: Evolution and Development of Color Production and Pattern Formation in Lizards and Snakes

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
In order to understand molecular and genetic mechanism of color pattern formation, not only adult phenotypes but also processes and mechanisms of color production and pattern formation during embryonic and postembryonic stages should be described.

The effect of static magnetic field on melanophores in the sea trout (Salmo trutta m. trutta Linnaeus, 1758) embryos and larvae

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2019
Magnetic field affects many living organisms, fishes included. The fish reactions are observed from the early stage of development, during embryogenesis and larval period, and into adult stage.

The ocular albinism type 1 protein, an intracellular G protein-coupled receptor, regulates melanosome transport in pigment cells [PDF]

, 2008
The protein product of the ocular albinism type 1 gene, named OA1, is a pigment cell-specific G protein-coupled receptor exclusively localized to intracellular organelles, namely lysosomes and melanosomes.
