The Global ETD Search service is a free service for researchers
to find electronic theses and dissertations. This service is
provided by the
Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations.
Our metadata is collected from universities around the world. If you manage a university/consortium/country archive and want to be added, details can be found on the NDLTD website.

Transmission of disseminated neoplasia in the soft shell clam, Mya arenariaHouse, Marcia 18 September 1997 (has links)
Disseminated neoplasia (DN) is a proliferative cell disorder that occurs in the
circulatory system of bivalves. The condition is progressive and lethal. At least 15
species of bivalves over a wide range of geographic locations have been reported to
contract DN. Prevalence levels of disseminated neoplasia can reach up to 90% in
some populations.
In the laboratory, the condition can be transferred to healthy individuals by
injection of hemolymph from animals of the same species with high intensity levels
of DN. Studies were conducted to investigate transmission of disseminated
neoplasia in the soft shell clam, Mya arenaria. It was determined that soft shell clams
from two Oregon bays were susceptible to DN by injection, and that the lack of DN
in these west coast populations of soft shell clams was not due to disease resistance
in these animals. Additionally, it was demonstrated that onset, development of DN,
and survival were directly correlated to the number of neoplastic cells injected into
the animal. Experiments investigating water-borne transmission showed that the
disease is infectious, and an exposure to DN cell in the hemolymph of highly
affected clams was sufficient to cause disease. In a cohabitation study, transmission
of DN from one DN positive animal to healthy animals was observed, with specific
information collected on the length of exposure and DN intensity of the animals
involved. Finally, transmission of disseminated neoplasia was not found to be
successful using cell-free filtrates prepared from DN cells and DN positive soft shell
clam tissue. A PCR enhanced reverse transcriptase assay was employed, and
reverse transcriptase activity was detected in samples prepared from DN positive
materials. / Graduation date: 1998
