It seems individual cancer cells send out the same distress signals as wounds, tricking immune cells into helping them grow into tumours. The finding suggests that anti-inflammatory drugs could help to combat or prevent cancer. "Lifelong, if you take a small quantity of something that【C1】______ inflammation (炎症), such as aspirin, it could reduce the risk of cancer," says Adam Hurlstone of the University of Manchester, UK.
When tissue is wounded or infected it produces hydrogen peroxide. White blood cells called leukocytes (白细胞) are among the first cells to react to this【C2】______ , homing in to kill the infectious agent, clean up the mess and rebuild【C3】______ tissue. At first, the tissue becomes inflamed, but this subsides as the wound is cleared and rebuilding continues. Now, a study in zebra fish shows that this process is also instigated (唆使) and sustained by tumour cells.
Hurlstone and his colleagues【C4】______ engineered zebra fish so that skin cells and leukocytes would show different【C5】______ under ultraviolet light. Some zebra fish were also engineered to have cancerous skin cells.
The team found that the cancerous skin cells secreted (分泌) hydrogen peroxide,【C6】______ leukocytes which helped them on their way to become a tumour. When the team【C7】______ hydrogen peroxide production in the zebra fish, the leukocytes were no longer attracted to cancerous cells and the cancer colonies reduced in【C8】______.
More alarmingly, the researchers found that healthy skin cells【C9】______ to the cancerous ones also produced hydrogen peroxide, suggesting that cancer cells【C10】______ co-opt them into triggering inflammation.

解析
名词辨析题。由空格前面的介词in推断,此处应填入名词。从句子意义上可以得知,癌细胞群体_____减少,应选用和数字有关的名词。在选项中只有number和figure 两个词表示数字。从搭配上说,in figure没有“在数量上”的意思,而in number 有此含义。因此, number符合题意。
