Abstract
Understanding the camouflage mechanisms in cephalopods, particularly the role of pigment-bearing organelles like chromatophores, holds significant relevance in regenerative medicine. These organelles exhibit rapid changes in color and shape for purposes such as camouflage, warning signals, and communication. The pigments within these cells play a central role in the skin coloration of these animals by scattering light. Recent research has elucidated that expanded chromatophores contribute to the creation of coloration structures. Investigations involving chromatosome proteome assays and microscopic evaluations of cuttlefish have revealed the presence of a laminar, reflective iridescent sheen generated by a biochemical component, facilitated by reflectin proteins found in the enveloping cells that cover each chromatophore. Within the chromatophores themselves, pigment molecules interact closely with the protein ω-crystallin, also present in the eye lens. These discoveries highlight the intricate interplay between pigments and color-producing structures, offering valuable insights into biophotonics. The dynamic relationship between these flexible pigment-containing organelles presents an inspiring avenue for the development of material engineering technologies encompassing simultaneous changes in color and pattern. Drawing inspiration from cephalopods' capabilities, researchers can explore innovative approaches for regenerative medicine, incorporating biophotonic interactions and adaptive coloration principles. This review compiles ongoing research on cephalopod camouflage, emphasizing its potential implications in regenerative medicine, paving the way for novel advancements in therapies, tissue engineering, and materials development.
