tissue: caudal and anal fins genotype: wild type developmental stage: adult (over 2 months old) cell type: Melanophore
Treatment protocol
Caudal and anal fins were collected from 1,000 adult zebrafish and were incubated in a trypsin solution containing 2.5 mg/ml trypsin, 1.2 mg/ml bovine serum albumin, and 1 mM EDTA for 1 overnight at 4℃. The fins were then washed with 1×PBS for 5mins at 1,000rpm five times at 28℃. After collagenase treatment melanophores and xanthophores were isolated as described in Inaba et al 2012.
Growth protocol
Zebrafish were obtained from pet shop.
Extracted molecule
