Generation and characterization of Kctd15 mutations in zebrafish. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Potassium channel tetramerization domain containing 15 (Kctd15) was previously found to have a role in early neural crest (NC) patterning, specifically delimiting the region where NC markers are expressed via repression of transcription factor AP-2a and ...

Supplementary Figure 11: Xanthophore movement models with our Box initial condition.

open access: yes, 2023
Supplementary Figure 11: Xanthophore movement models with our Box initial condition. We present (a)–(d)EA ABM results based on 5000 simulations, (e)–(h) the corresponding PDE solution under the optimal valueof αXX for a mesh resolution of Nbin = 240 ...

Lipid droplet biology and evolution illuminated by the characterization of a novel perilipin in teleost fish

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Perilipin (PLIN) proteins constitute an ancient family important in lipid droplet (LD) formation and triglyceride metabolism. We identified an additional PLIN clade (plin6) that is unique to teleosts and can be traced to the two whole genome duplications

The MITF paralog tfec is required in neural crest development for fate specification of the iridophore lineage from a multipotent pigment cell progenitor.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Understanding how fate specification of distinct cell-types from multipotent progenitors occurs is a fundamental question in embryology. Neural crest stem cells (NCSCs) generate extraordinarily diverse derivatives, including multiple neural, skeletogenic

Supplementary Figure 12: Xanthophore movement models for our Stripe and Two stripes initial conditions.

open access: yes, 2023
Supplementary Figure 12: Xanthophore movement models for our Stripe and Two stripes initial conditions.(a)–(d) Using a Stripe initial condition, we present the column-averaged EA density (cells/mm2, black solidline) across 5000 ABM realizations alongside

Riboflavin: a potentially important skin pigment in reptilesRiboflavin: a potentially important skin pigment in reptiles [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Pigments not only contribute to the extraordinary diversity of animal coloration but also play vital physiological roles. Riboflavin, or vitamin B2, is a macronutrient essential for cellular metabolism and growth, and is a well-known yellow pigment ...

Developmental and Cellular Basis of Vertical Bar Color Patterns in the East African Cichlid Fish Haplochromis latifasciatus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
The East African adaptive radiations of cichlid fishes are renowned for their diversity in coloration. Yet, the developmental basis of pigment pattern formation remains largely unknown.

A systems biology approach uncovers the core gene regulatory network governing iridophore fate choice from the neural crest. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
Multipotent neural crest (NC) progenitors generate an astonishing array of derivatives, including neuronal, skeletal components and pigment cells (chromatophores), but the molecular mechanisms allowing balanced selection of each fate remain unknown.

Ultrastructure of Erythrophores and Xanthophores of the Siamese Fighting Fish, Betta splendens [PDF]

open access: yesIsraeli Journal of Aquaculture - Bamidgeh, 2012
The ultrastructural morphology of brightly colored pigment cells (chromatophores) of Siamese fighting fish, Betta splendens, was investigated by transmission electron microscopy. The major pigment cells in the epidermis and dermis of the red and golden strains were erythrophores and xanthophores, respectively.
