Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are essentially fundamental to all cellular processes, so that developing small molecule inhibitors of PPIs have great significance despite representing a huge challenge. Studying PPIs with the help of peptide motifs could obtain the structural information and reference significance to reduce the difficulty in the development of small molecules. Computational methods are powerful tools to characterize peptide-protein interactions, especially molecular dynamics simulation and binding free energy calculation.

Purpose: To explore the diagnosis and treatment of hemangioma and vascular malformation associated with thrombopenia (Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, KMS).
Methods: From October 1997 to December 2003, 13 cases of KMS were treated in our hospital. Among the 13 patients, 4 were located in the maxillofacial region, 3 were located in the trunk, 6 were located in the lower limb.

Objective: To explore the clinical classification and ideal therapy for maxillofacial AVMs.
Methods: According to the clinical characteristics, 106 patients with maxillofacial AVMs were divided into the 4 types Of them, 38 cases were cystic dilatation lesions, 22 cases were limited thicken lesions, 42 case were diffuse thicken lesions, 4 cases were central maxillary hemangioma. 106 patients with maxillofacial AVMs were treated in our hospital, of them, 8 cases received operation (group 1); 23 cases received embolization of supplying artery alone (group 2); 37 cases received embolization of supplying artery plus hardener intra-tumorous injection (group 3); 38 cases received embolization of supplying artery plus tumor resection (group 4).
Objective: To explore an ideal therapy for nasal hemangiomas in children.
Methods: From June 1998 to April 2001, 110 patients with nasal hemangiomas in children were treated. Of them, 76 cases received Pingyangmycin intralesional injection (group I); 11 cases received steroids injection (group II); 7 cases received intralesional injection of absolute ethanol (group III); 6 cases received cryotherapy (group IV) and 10 cases with tumor resection (group V).
