Abstract

Compositions and methods for administering nucleic acid compositions in vitro to cells in culture or in vivo to an organism whereby the uptake of nucleic acids is enhanced are provided. Various compositions, including thermo-reversible gels, are utilized to increase the viscosity of an administered nucleic acid formulation, thereby prolonging the localized bioavailability of the administered nucleic acid.
