| Research Abstract |
We aimed in this project to develop a method with which one can change the skin pattern of zebrafish in the vivo, and reproduce the pattern in culture dish (in vivo). Concerning to the in vivo changing of the pattern, using the cx418 gene transgenic fish, we succeeded to change the pattern of normal zebrafish (stripe) to variety of patterns. Although we have not yet succeeding to reproduce the pattern in culture dish, we established the method with which one can analyze the interactions between the pigment cells that plays the major role in the pattern formation.
