Remaining organic and functional damage of ischemia cardio-cerebrovascular disease is always a main trouble puzzling the clinicians. After the discovery of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), researchers realize that postnatal angiogenesis is an important biological process, which play a key role to repair the ischemia tissue and improve the function. So a new concept which names therapeutic angiogenesis supply a new treament way for the ischemia cardio-cerebrovascular disease. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has accumulated rich experience on treating the ischemia disease, studies found that many Chinese medicine prescriptions and effective ingredients can increase the therapeutic angiogenesis, howerer the mechanisms were not the same, they mainly manifest in regular the secretion of angiogenic factors, increase the proliferation and differentiation etc. In this paper, we review recent studies, summary the Chinese medicine prescriptions and effective ingredients which can increase the therapeutic angiogenesis, and analyze the differernt pathway. We view to provide reference for the later researchers.

79 cases (180 amputated fingers) underwent gradual distraction through phanlanges. The bone elongation obtained varied from 1 to 3.2 cm, with an average of 2.2 cm. Finger stumps were examined by measurement of 2 point discrimination (2PD) and sensative nerve conduction velocity as well as SO, both before and post lengthening. We confirmed that it was safe to distract the finger stump at a daily rate of 1 mm. Several fingers can be lengthened simultaneously using our device. The adjacent joint was also stretched other than compressed. Therefore, the lateral accessory ligament contraction and joint crush injury were avoided. The long-term length increase was maintained by subperiosteal osteotomy. Gradual finger lengthening is a simple, safe and effective method.

In order to study the pathogenesis of HPVl1 and seek for a therapeutic approach of the disease caused by HPV1l. The HPVl1/E2 644bp was amplified by PCR with HPVll plasmid DNA. pGEM-T Easy was used as vector and a clone pTV-644 was obtained.The inserted DNA sequencing was carried out after selecting and identification. According to the hammerhead structure described by Symon's, the possible secondery cleavage sites on HPVll/E2 mRNA were analyzed and the secondery structure of substrate was predicted by computer and ribozyme, excluding analogous sequence of substrate combined with ribozyme were found in the mRNA.The hammerhead ribozyme of RZ2777 against HPV1l/E2 mRNA was seleted to carry out cleavage reaction in vitro. Results of the experiment showed that 644bp substrate derived from HPVll/E2 can be cleavaed site-specifically by ribozyme in vitro. The cleavage activity showed over 85% by choosing the optimun reaction condition, which was not affected by two cis-ribozymes on both 3′-and 5′-ends released by self cleavage,but two flan-king sequences of target RNA influenced the cleavage activity. Results demonstrated that the ribozyme will become a highly effective and specific therapy against HPVll infection.

Objective To observe the resection of the scapholunate interosseous ligament (SLIL)and its subregions on the three-dimensional(3-D)movement of the scaphoid and lunate so as to discuss the role of SLIL in the 3D flexion-extension motion of the scaphoid and lunate.Methods Twelve upper extremities(six left extremities and six right extremities)from adult cadaver were used in this study and divided into five groups:normal group,proximal subregion resection group,proximal subregion plus dorsal subregion resection group,proximal subregion plus palmar subregion resection group and whole SLIL resection group.The 3-D laser scan and reconstruction technique were used for meusure ment of the 3-D flexion-extension motion of the scaphoid and lunate.Results In the normal group,the scaphoid and lunate flexed and the radial deviated at the same direction during wrist flexion-extension motion.At the same time,there was minimal scaphoid and lunate pronation-supination during wrist flexionextension.After resection of the proximal and palmar(or dorsal)subregions of the SLIL,some different movements were found compared with the normal specimen.Whole SLIL resection resulted in increase of the flexion motion of the scaphoid but decrease of the palmar flexion of the lunate.Conclusions 3-D laser scanning and image reconstruction techniques can accurately measure the 3D motion of the scaphoid and lunate.Partial or whole resection of SLIL may exert significant effect on the flexion-extension motion of the scaphoid and lunate.However,the proximal subregion of SLIL has no prominent effect on the motion of the scaphoid and lunate.
