Composition for increasing the expression of a growth factor gene, comprising coreshell structured microparticles as active ingredient

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a composition for increasing the expression of a growth factor gene, which contains core-shell structured microparticles as an active ingredient. When administered in vivo along with a growth factor gene, the composition for increasing the expression of a growth factor gene of the present disclosure can increase the expression of the co-administered gene by at least 30%. Especially, when administered along with at least one gene selected from a human hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) gene, an isoform gene of the human hepatocyte growth factor and a variant gene thereof, or at least one gene selected from a human insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene, an isoform gene of the human insulin-like growth factor 1 and a variant gene thereof, which are appropriate for the present disclosure, the composition can increase the expression of the gene by at least 30%. When administered along with a gene therapeutic agent, the composition can achieve a therapeutic effect even with a very small amount of a gene, and thus is useful.
