Somatolactin selectively regulates proliferation and morphogenesis of neural-crest derived pigment cells in medaka

Species-specific colors and patterns on animal body surfaces are determined primarily by neural-crest-derived pigment cells in the skin (chromatophores). However, even closely related species display widely differing patterns. These contrasting aspects of chromatophores (i.e., the fixed developmenta...
