Abstract:
The current invention provides a method of activating fibroblast and myofibroblast apoptosis in a tissue of a mammal, comprising administering to the tissue a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising an siRNA molecule that binds to an mRNA that codes for TGFB1 protein in a mammalian cell, an siRNA molecule that binds to an mRNA that codes for COX-2 protein in a mammalian cell, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable histidine-lysine polymer. The invention also provides additional methods for using this composition.
