Title: Delivery of naked DNA for wound healing
Inventor: FERGUSON MARK WILLIAM JAMES
IPC: A61K38/17
Filed: 1997-05-09
Abstract: The delivery of naked DNA encoding a protein which modulates wound healing is described. The DNA is not encorporated in a vector but is packaged, for example in a liposome or viral particle. Preferably the wound healiing modulating agent is a growth factor neutralising agent or an agent which blocks growth factor receptors. Such agents may be antibodies against, or peptides which block receptors of, TGF, interleukins, inteferons, PDGF, integrin receptors, GpIIb/IIIa platelet receptors, inhibitors of convertase enzymes or Latency Associated Peptide (LAP). Also, DNA encoding stimulators of Activin and inhibin or a gene product which modulates actin assembly, such as gelsolin, may be used.
