Unpigmented mitfa-Expressing Cells Give Rise to Differentiated Melanocytes by Direct Differentiation during Regeneration Lineage tracing of unpigmented mitfa-expressing cells on the flank of an adult Tg(miniCoopR-mitfa:nlsEGFP) zebrafish before and after neocuproine-mediated ablation of differentiated melanocytes. Unpigmented mitfa-expressing cells (yellow arrowheads) directly differentiated into pigmented melanocytes (white arrowheads). Differentiation was noted by the onset of melanization. Fish were treated with epinephrine only on day 0 prior to imaging. mC, miniCoopR; BF, brightfield; neo, neocuproine. Scale bar, 50 µM. See also Figure S3. |
