Abstract
The invention provides a method of transferring in vivo a molecule into a striated muscle cell. More specifically, a method of the invention comprises contacting in vivo a striated muscle cell with a molecule, and electrically stimulating the muscle cell with one or more unipolar pulses of an electric field intensity ranging from 1 to 800 V/cm. In one embodiment, the molecule is a nucleic acid encoding a protein of interest. For example, the invention provides methods of promoting angiogenesis and hemostasis.
