As the major commercial source of natural rubber,Hevea brasiliensis attracts much attention.However,the heterozygous nature,long breeding cycle are strong limitations for conventional breeding.While genetic engineering,which can be used to widen the germplasm base and produce desirable agronomic traits quickly and efficiently,offers a viable alternative approach to complement traditional breeding.Comprehensive analysis indicates that in the past two decades,with calli derived from immature anther or integumental tissues of immature fruit as receptors,both biolistic and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation methods were employed for developping rubber genotypes with improved latex yield,tolerance to tapping panel dryness syndrome,producing high-value recombinant proteins,etc.Being recalcitrant to tissue culture,the transformation efficiency of Hevea is comparatively low,and the procedures are still needed to optimize.Finally,breeding objectives and strategies to improve transformation efficiency were also proposed in the review.

Objective To assess the application values of real-time three-dimensional transesophageal ultrasound (RT3D-TEE) technology in the diagnosis and treatment of artificial mitral paravalvular leak (PVL). Methods Fifty-one cases of artificial mitral PVL patients were received two-dimensional transesophageal ultrasound (2D-TEE) and RT3D-TEE examination before and after surgery. Accuracy analysis was performed between the two kinds of test. Results The diagnostic accuracy of RT3D-TEE technique in patients with PVL drain port positionwas significantly higher than that of 2D-TEE technology , and the data of PVL drain port size by RT3D-TEE technique is significantly larger than that of 2D-TEE technique (P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion The PVL laboratory diagnosis based on RT3D-TEE is accurate and reliable , and RT3D-TEE can assist doctors to diagnose before operation , and can provide real-time ultrasound information from intraoperative monitoring , and monitor the postoperative efficacy of patients .

Objective To study the expression of telomerase and its possible clinical significance in patients with condyloma acuminatum,bowenoid papulosis,Bowen's disease and vulvar squamous cell car- cinoma.Methods The human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) was detected by immunohisto- chemistry technique in all patients.Histopathological analysis was done in patients with bowenoid papulosis or Bowen's disease.Results There was a significant difference in the expression of hTERT among normal tissue,condyloma acuminatum and squamous carcinoma,and the expression rate increased successively from normal control to squamous carcinoma.In bowenoid papulosis,the expression of bTERT was significantly higher as compared to that in condyloma acuminatum,significantly lower as compared to that in squamous carcinoma,and was as the same as that in Bowen's disease.Histopathologically,the degree of cell atypia was significantly higher in Bowen's disease than that in bowenoid papulosis.Conclusions The expression of telomerase increases successively from normal skin,benign tumors to malignant carcinomas,which sug- gests that the expression of telomerase may play an important role in both cell proliferation and immortaliza- tion.
