Abstract

A nucleic acid-complex, containing a nucleic acid and a positively charged, water-insoluble biodegradable polymer, is disclosed. The complex has properties of sustainedly releasing a desired nucleic acid, especially DNA, to a site. The complex can be taken up by phagocytes such as macrophages and delivered to a target site, allowing the function of the nucleic acid to be exhibited in a target specific manner.
