Abstract

L'invention concerne un animal non humain qui possède au moins un organe ou une glande, ledit organe ou glande présentant une lumière doublée de cellules épithéliales capables d'introduire des sécrétions dans la lumière, au moins une ou plusieurs cellules épithéliales comprenant un transgène absent du génotype caractéristique de l'animal, cette cellule étant capable d'exprimer ledit transgène afin de former un produit transgénique. L'invention porte également sur un procédé permettant de donner un trait désiré à un animal par la lumière et dans les cellules épithéliales, ces dernières étant capables d'exprimer le transgène afin de fabriquer un produit transgénique.
