Key FactsTransmissible Cancer Confirmed in Vermont Catfish

Summary created with AI assistance · Source: greekreporter.com
- The discovery involves brown bullhead catfish in Lake Memphremagog, which lies along the Vermont-Quebec border and supplies drinking water to more than 175,000 people.
- After unusual skin growths were noticed in 2012, they were identified as malignant melanomas; by 2017, nearly one-third of sampled catfish had such tumors.
- The tumors were genetically more similar to one another than to their individual fish hosts and shared hundreds of thousands of recurring mutations, which the study says indicates a single cancer lineage spreading between fish.
- The melanoma is therefore one of four confirmed transmissible cancers in nature, while its transmission route remains unknown and direct contact or water during spawning are considered possible pathways.
