Supplemental Figure 1. Seasonal lymphocyte proliferative response of anterior kidney leukocytes cultured from brown bullhead inhabiting the Ashtabula River and Conneaut Creek following an 18 hour in vitro exposure to concanavalin A (A) and phytohemagglutinin-P (B). Data presented as mean ± standard error; * indicates a significant difference (P ≤ 0.05).
Supplemental Figure 2 – Microscopic appearance of macrophage aggregates in the spleen and liver of largemouth bass and brown bullhead. (A) Hepatic macrophage aggregates of brown bullhead (arrow). (B) Splenic macrophage arrogate (a) of largemouth bass replete with hemosiderin.
Supplemental Figure 3 – Microscopic appearance of hepatic lesions in brown bullhead. (A) Normal brown bullhead liver illustrating hepatopancrease tissue (a) that contains occasional bile ducts (arrows) within the hepatic parenchyma (b). (B) Bile duct proliferation (arrows). (C) Fibrosis (arrows) surrounding normal bile ducts. ((D) Altered cell foci (a) within the normal hepatic parenchyma(b), (E) Cholangioma, a benign neoplasm of the bile ducts (a). (F) Cholangiosarcoma, a malignant neoplasm of the bile ducts (a).
