BACKGROUND:The regional gene therapy of bone defect is to transfer genes capable of accelerating bone healing into target cells, which will transcript the genes into mRNA and translate them into proteins, then the target cells will be stimulated to differentiate under the role of protein, and finally reach the purpose of accelerating bone healing by means of autocrine or paracrine. With the development of cell recombination technique, more and more genes of growth factors involved in the bone repairing have been successfully cloned, which make it possible to treat bone defect with gene therapy. The present status for the regional gene therapy of bone defect is summarized.DATA SOURCES: An online search in Pubmed database was undertaken to identify articles about the regional gene therapy of bone defect published in English from January 1965 to January 2006 by using keywords of "gene therapy,bone defect". Meanwhile, Chinese relevant articles published from January 2000 to January 2006 were searched in Wanfang database by using the same keywords in Chinese.STUDY SELECTION: The data were primarily checked, and the references of each article were looked up. Inclusive criteria: related to the regional gene therapy of bone defect. Exclusive criteria: repetitive study or Meta analysis.DATA EXTRACTrON: Totally 237 articles were collected, 32 of them were in accordance with the inclusive criteria, and the other 205 were old or repetitive ones. Of the 32 articles, 4 were about the selection of destination genes, 3 about the selection of target cells, 7 about the selection of gene expression vector, 3 about the methods of gene transfer, 4 about gene therapy combined with tissue engineering in treating bone defect, 5 about polygenes in treating bone defects, and 2 about the problems and prospects in the gene therapy of bone defect.DATA SYNTHESIS: The regional gene therapy of bone defect is a new technique developed base on the basic theoretical cognition of bone regeneration and gene recombination technique, and provides ideal solving program for the treatment of bone defect caused by various reasons. The basic problems mainly include the selection of destination genes, selection of target cells, selection of gene expression vectors and the selection of the methods of gene transfer.The studies about the selection of target cells and methods of gene transfer become mature day by day, bone marrow stromal cells have become the target cells should be selected firstly, and it has been generally acknowledged that ex vivo gene transfer has more obvious advantages than in vivo one. The key problem at present is how to further explain the natural process of the repair of bone defect, and select the most effective component from the signal molecules involved in the process to apply in the gene therapy of bone defect, and further improve the gene expression vector, so as to ensure the safety of gene therapy. It is believed that with the continuously deepened theoretical cognition of bone regeneration and the continuous perfection of gene recombinant technique, the gene therapy of bone defect will finally go out of laboratory, and really serve the patients with bone defect.CONCLUSION: The regional gene therapy of bone defect can effectively activate the activity of bone regeneration at the site of bone defect, also can avoid the problems of immunologic rejection and systematic toxicity caused by the direct application of cytokines, and has good prospects of clinical application. At present, this technique is not completely perfect, and there are many problems to be deeply investigated in destination genes, gene vectors and transfection technique, etc.

The technology of bone tissue engineering has got rid from autologous bone implant and allograft bone. With the development in recent 20 years,the basic pattern of tissue engineered bone has already been constructed,consisting of related molecules to bone regeneration,active cells for osteogenesis and scaffold materials. The related molecule to bone regeneration is the dominant factor to determine the bio-activity of tissue engineered bone,and also is the key researches in the field of bone tissue engineering. As the molecule bio-mechanism of bone regeneration has been elucidated and molecule bio-techniques have been combined with bone tissue engineering,many achievements regarding the related molecules to bone regeneration are observed in bone induction mechanism,vector,gene therapy technology and the combined use,which all improve the effect of tissue engineered bone on repairing the bone defects.

Objective:To improve the accuracy of the rotary manipulations of the neck in the treatment of neck pain, according to subjective and objective clinical findings. Methods: Two groups of 60 outpatients diagnosed with neck pain were suited to the manipulation and each group was 30 cases. The diagnosis of neck pain was made with conventional clinical evaluation, including history, palpation examinations, CT scan and X-ray. Group A received a manipulation of obliquely pulling the neck. While group B received manipulation of pulling the rotated and located neck. Subjects received a maximum of 10 treatments over a 3-week treatment period. Both treatment groups were assessed with subjective (cervicodynia, neck discomfort, upper limb numbness, vertigo and tinnitus) and objective (cracking sounds). The cracking sounds during two of the manipu1ations were recorded by a microphone positioned at both sides of the neck. The sounds were compared in patients of two groups. Statistical analysis was conducted with a one-factor within-subjects analysis of variance tests and descriptive statistic. Results: Analysis of the subjective indicated that the cases with upper limb numbness were reduced from 12 to 6 in group 2, while the cases with vertigo and tinnitus were reduced from 13 to 4 in group 1. Analysis of the objective indicated two kinds of neck rotary manipulations act not only on the rotary-side facet joints, but on the opposite to the rotary side on1y in a few cases. The results showed that manipulation of pulling the rotated and located neck has a small action range and centralized action points, while manipulation of obliquely pulling the neck has many action segments and discentra1ized action points. Conclusion: It was concluded that the rotary manipu1ations act mainly on the rotary side, not on the opposite, and that manipulation of obliquely pulling the neck has a wider action range and a better therapeutic effect on cervical upper-segment lesions, while manipulation of pulling the rotated and located neck has a limited action range and is suitable for cervical lower-segment lesions. There were some relations between the joint sounds during the manipulation and clinical curative effect.
