SEATTLE, Oct. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In a new study published in the journal Nature Cancer, Michael Metzger, Ph.D., Assistant Investigator at Pacific Northwest Research Institute (PNRI), and a global team of co-investigators have conducted a comprehensive analysis of the genomic changes associated with a unique cancer in clams. The cancer is "transmissible" in that the cancer cells themselves jump from one clam to another through the environment. The study traced the evolution of the cancer cells over the last 200 years and revealed widespread genomic mutations and instability, which may explain how they have survived for so long. These results highlight the clam's potential as a model for studying both cancer evolution and the development of resilience to cancer.

Key Points: 
  • The cancer is "transmissible" in that the cancer cells themselves jump from one clam to another through the environment.
  • These results highlight the clam's potential as a model for studying both cancer evolution and the development of resilience to cancer.
  • These results highlight the clam's potential as a model for studying both cancer evolution and the development of resilience to cancer.
  • The genomic analysis of cancer in clams advances current knowledge of cancer biology and underscores the importance of studying contagious cancers in their natural settings.
