Paper Abstract
We successfully delivered a therapeutic vector construct, which carries hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) gene, to rat skin
in vivo. After HGF expression vector had been intradermally injected to rat skin, LISWs were generated by irradiating
the laser target put on the rat skin with nanosecond pulses from the second harmonics (532 nm) of a Q-switched
Nd:YAG laser. Concentration of HGF protein increased by a factor of four by the application of LISWs when compared
with that of control samples without LISW application. We also investigated the effects of LISWs on the integrity of
plasmid DNA.
