ObjectiveTo review the research advances in molecular biology of vascular restenosis.MethodsThe literatures about molecular biology of vascular restenosis were reviewed.ResultsCurrent transgenic ways had some advantages and disadvantages. Gene therapy with HSV-tk, Rb,p21，p27,p53,c-myc, c-myb, vascular endothelial growth factor,bFGF,platelet derived growth facfor，nuclear factor-κB and so on inhibited vascular restenosis.ConclusionA better transgenic system and gene-combination therapy will be effective to treat vascular restenosis.
