Background: In vertebrate embryos, migration of trunk neural crest cells (NCC) proceeds mainly in two streams: a dorsoventral path between the neural tube and somites, and a dorsolateral one between somites and ectoderm. This last pathway is taken by melanocyte precursor cells (MPC) homing the skin,

The striped pigment patterns in the flanks of zebrafish result from chromatophores deep within the dermis or hypodermis, while superficial melanophores associated with dermal scales add a dark tint to the dorsal coloration. The responses of these chromatophores were compared during the long-term ada
## Abstract The early arrest patterns of a methylcholanthreneβinduced fibrosarcoma were determined after injection of ^125^IUdRβlabelled cells into the systemic circulation of mice bearing transplanted lymphosarcomas, and of normal animals. Similar experiments were performed using radiolabelled lym
