Nanoparticulate pharmaceutical formulations and methods for co-delivery of two or more species of nucleic acids for simultaneous suppression and expression of target genes in a cell, are provided. The nanoparticles encapsulate two or more nucleic acid species. The first nucleic acid suppresses expression of a gene or product thereof, e.g., inhibitory nucleic acid, such as antisense, siRNA, miRNA, Dicer siRNA, piRNA, etc. The second nucleic acid increases expression of, or encodes, an endogenous or exogenous protein or polypeptide, e.g., an mRNA. The first and second nucleic acid species simultaneously target or affect the same or different cellular processes within a cell including communication, senescence, DNA repair, gene expression, metabolism, necrosis, and apoptosis.
