A(D、B were negative); As for TA100(+S9), only E was positive. Conclusion The mutagenicity of product water of six water works is relatively high,the type of mutagenicity is mainly code-shifting. Taking river water as the water source,using chlorine dioxide and active carbon filtration and no using pretreatment of chlorination may reduce the mutagenic organics.

Objective To explore the effects of the meteorologic factors on air pollutants and to establish a model of relationship between the meteorologic factors and concentration of air pollutants. Method The data of SO2,NO2 and PM10 concentration in the air and the related meteorologic factors (daily average,maximum and minimum atmospheric pressure and daily atmospheric pressure difference,daily average,maximum and minimum air temperature,monthly rainfall,daily average and minimum relative humidity and wind speed) from January 2002 to December 2007 were collected. The correlation between the air pollutant levels and related meteorologic factors was analyzed by the multiple regression models with SPSS 11.5 software and multiple regression equations were established. Results Minimum relative humidity was negatively correlated with the concentration of SO2 and NO2 in atmosphere . Daily minimum air temperature was negatively correlated with the concentration of NO2 in atmosphere. Daily average relative humidity and wind speed were negatively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Daily atmospheric pressure difference was positively correlated with the concentration of PM10 in atmosphere. Multiple regression equations of the concentration of SO2,NO2 and PM10 in atmosphere and meteorologic factors have statistical significances. Conclusion The meteorologic factors have some effects on the air pollution levels. By using the correlation of meteorologic factors and the concentration of air pollutions,multiple regression equations can be established.

[Objective] To investigate the role of exenatide on angiogenesis in endometrial cancer Ishikawa xenografts in nude mice.[Method] We used the subcutaneous human endometrial cancer cell Ishikawa xenografts in nude mice model,and divided them into control group and exenatide-treated group.The harvested tumors were preserved for immunohistochemistry staining and western blot analysis.[Results] The micro-vessel density (CD31 positive) in exenatide-treated group was (13.2 ± 1.4)/400 power field,less than that in control group [(25.9 ± 5.8)/400 power field] (P < 0.01).The expression level of VEGF was significantly lower in exenatide-treated group than that in control group (P < 0.05).The mean density of tumor associated macrophages (F4/80 positive) is (31.4 ± 3.4)% in exenatide-treated group and (72.1 ± 4.2)% in control group with significant difference (P < 0.01).[Conclusion] Exenatide weaks tumor angiogenesis within endometrial cancer Ishikawa xenografts in nude mice.

Objective To study different e mbolization methods in various aneurys ms with metallic coils. Methods In 6 spherical aneurysms, the e mbolization was p erformed with coils in their bodies, discontinuing the total or part of the bloo d supply to the corresponding viscera. While in 6 diverticulum aneurysms, the em bolization with coils was conducted in their bodies only, maintaining the blood supply of the corresponding viscera. For some pseudoaneurysms, both afferent and efferent arteries were embolized and collateral arterial supplies were prevente d. Results All 19 cases 20 aneurysms, of aneurysms were success fully embolized. Among 8 cases of pseudoaneurysms, bleeding had been stopped in 7 cases. Putting coils in the b odies of aneurysms or embolizing both afferent and efferent arteries improved su ccessful rate. Conclusion Embolizing aneurysms with metallic co ils is an efficient, reliable, and simple interventional method for stopping bleeding.

Gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement can be used to modify gene sequence in genomic background without position effect or insertion inactivation in transgenic plants. Targeted mutagenesis organism has little biosafety concerns free of transgenes or marker genes. Gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement in high plants now appears to be a potential tool for gene functional analysis in situ, crops genetic improvement and molecular design. Zinc finger nuclease(ZFN)is most important and would be widely used in gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement through introducing double-strand breaks in genome. Strategies for gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement in plants is discussed. ZFN is described in detail from its structure, operation model and application in plants. Developmental prospect of ZFN in plant gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement is also discussed.
