Transplantation of mesenchymal cells improves peripheral limb ischemia in diabetic rats.

abstract：:A detailed method is presented for the creation of head-to-tail multimers of short blunt restriction fragments, ligated into a plasmid vector in a single-tube reaction. Random priming of the concatemer insert readily yields hybridization probes of high specificity, unattainable from the short monomer fragments. ...
