Structural change of pterinosome (pteridine pigment granule) during the xanthophore differentiation of Oryzias fish

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1971
Structural changes in pterinosomes found in xanthophores were studied electron microscopically using 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 mm-long stages of larvae of Oryzias latipes. Herein designated types G-1 to G-5 pterinosomes appeared most abundantly, corresponding to the respective stage in the above sequence. They were round or ellipsoidal.

Regulation of the distribution of carotenoid droplets in goldfish xanthophores and possible implication to secretory processes

Cell Motility, 1988
AbstractIn goldfish xanthophores, the formation of pigment aggregate requires: (1) that a pigment organelle (carotenoid droplet) protein p57 be in the unphosphorylated state; (2) that self‐association of pigment organelles occur in a microtubule‐independent manner; and (3) that pigment organelles via p57 associate with microtubules.

Electron microscopic study on the xanthophore differentiation in Xenopus laevis, with special reference to their pterinosomes

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1972
Structural changes in pterinosomes and behavior of cytoplasmic inclusions in the process of xanthophore differentiation were studied electron microscopically using Xenopus laevis . At the early stage of xanthophore development, type I pterinosomes with clear limiting membranes, inner amorphous materials, and fine-fibrous structures, well developed ...

Induction of xanthophores from non-pigmented dermal cells of xanthic goldfish in vitro

Cell Differentiation, 1987
To identify precursor cells of xanthophores (xanthoblasts), non-pigmented cells without any phenotypic traits as pigment cells were isolated from the dermal tissue of xanthic goldfish with an adult color pattern and cultured in a medium containing 1 mM db-cAMP or 0.25 U/ml ACTH and 10% carp serum.

The role of xanthophores in the stripe pattern formation of Zebrafish, Danio rerio

2017
Animals have evolved a fascinating diversity in their color patterns, which serves as an essential component of their survival strategies. Color pattern formation in zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a great model system to study general pattern formation involving different cell types.
