Abstract: Provided is a biodegradable polymer coating stent effective in delaying the damage of physical properties (particularly radial force) of a core structure. The stent includes a core structure of a bioabsorbable material (e.g., Mg), a first coating layer of a first polymer with biodegradability, and a second coating layer of a second polymer with biodegradability, wherein the first coating layer covers the whole surface of the core structure; the second coating layer covers a part or the whole surface of the first coating layer; the first polymer has a glass transition point of lower than 37° C.; and the second polymer has a glass transition point of 47° C. or higher.

Abstract: In a method for delivering a nucleic acid of the invention, a nucleic acid is introduced into a cell by pressing the nucleic acid supported on a surface of a solid substrate against the cell. According to the method, the nucleic acid can be delivered into the cell simply at a low cost without placing a heavy burden on the cell at a high nucleic acid delivery efficiency. By allowing the surface of the solid substrate to support the nucleic acid in the form of a complex with a polyamine or a cationic lipid and pressing it against the cell, the introduction efficiency into the cell can be further improved. In the invention, by using a nucleic acid useful for gene therapy as the nucleic acid, a high-efficiency device for gene therapy can be obtained.
