Abstract

L'invention se rapporte à un procédé permettant d'introduire au moins un gène codant un produit dans au moins une cellule d'un tissu conjonctif d'un mammifère hôte afin de traiter ce dernier. Ce procédé consiste à utiliser des techniques de recombinaison pour produire une molécule vecteur d'ADN contenant le gène codant pour le produit, et à infecter la cellule conjonctive du mammifère hôte au moyen de la molécule vecteur d'ADN comprenant le gène codant pour le produit. L'invention se rapporte également à un procédé permettant d'introduire au moins une cellule d'un tissu conjonctif d'un mammifère hôte par une voie non virale. Un procédé de production d'un modèle animal destiné à l'étude de la pathologie des tissus conjonctifs est également décrit, ainsi qu'un procédé d'utilisation in vivo d'un gène codant un domaine de liaison d'interleukine-1 extracellulaire d'un récepteur d'interleukine-1.
