ELECTRON MICROSCOPIC DEMONSTRATION OF TYROSINASE IN PTERINOSOMES OF THE FROG XANTHOPHORE, AND THE ORIGIN OF PTERINOSOMES* [PDF]
Development Growth and Differentiation, 1976 In the frog, Rana japonica, the successive appearance of types I, II and III pterinosomes, which were defined according to the degree of lamellar structure, is in keeping with the xanthophore differentiation at the larval stage, but these three types coexist in a single xanthophore in the adult.

Characterization of a novel filament system in goldfish xanthophores
Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton, 1997We report the presence of a novel filament system in goldfish xanthophores using a monoclonal antibody (A2) made against 40-70 kD proteins derived from cytoskeletal preparations. On Western blots, this antibody recognized a 45 kD protein in xanthophore cell extracts.

Isolation of xanthophores from the goldfish (Carassius auratus L.)
In Vitro, 1982A method is described for the isolation of milligram quantities of viable, hormone-responsive xanthophores from goldfish scales. The preparations are typically 70 to 90% pure and are useful for biochemical analyses or for establishing primary cultures.

Sequential actions of Pax3 and Pax7 drive xanthophore development in zebrafish neural crest
Developmental Biology, 2008 The Pax3/7 gene family has a fundamental and conserved role during neural crest formation. In people, PAX3 mutation causes Waardenburg syndrome, and murine Pax3 is essential for pigment formation. However, it is unclear exactly how Pax3 functions within the neural crest.

Mutations affecting xanthophore pigmentation in the zebrafish, Danio rerio
Development, 1996ABSTRACT In a large-scale screen for mutants with defects in embryonic development we identified 17 genes (65 mutants) specifically required for the development of xan-thophores. We provide evidence that these genes are required for three different aspects of xanthophore development.

Prolactin Signaling in Erythrophores and Xanthophores of Teleost Fish
Pigment Cell Research, 2000Prolactin directly affects erythrophores and xanthophores of teleost fish, resulting in pigment dispersion. In the present study, signal transduction elicited by prolactin was examined using split‐tail fin preparations of the rose bitterling and Nile tilapia, and cultured erythrophores and xanthophores from the paradise goby and rose bitterling.

White LED Light Exposure Inhibits the Development and Xanthophore Pigmentation of Zebrafish Embryo [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractCircadian rhythm in all living organisms is disturbed continuously by artificial light sources and artificial lighting has become a hazard for public health. Circadian rhythm of melatonin maintains high levels of melatonin during the night and low levels during the day.

Epidermal xanthophores in a salamander
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1973Non-melanophore pigment cells are generally restricted to the dermis. In contrast, the xanthophores, forming the dorsal yellow stripe of the long-toed salamander, Ambystoma macrodactylum, are located within the epidermis. They are underlain by dermal iridophores and melanophores.
