Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a genetically modified pig as a model for studying psoriasis. The modified pig model displays one or more phenotypes associated with psoriasis. Disclosed is also a modified pig comprising a mutation in the endogenous ILK-I Ra, JunB/cJun, CD18, IKK2, and/or LIG1 gene, and/or a human, porcine and/or murine PPARs, PPAR-δ, l B-α, STAT3c, Integrin beta 1, Integrin alpha 2, MEK1, Amphiregulin, BMP-6, VEGF, JunB ec-Jun ep, IL-I a, TGF.beta 1, CD18 hypo, Cre/lkk2FL/FL, Dsg1, SCCE, TGF-a, TNF-a, IL-20, IFN-g, LIG1 KO, KGF, IL-6, PAFR1 Cre/lkk2FL/FL, IL1 R, Dsg3, IFN-gamma, p40, ILI Ra, IKK2, JunB/c-Jun, and/or LIG1 gene, transcriptional and/or translational product or part thereof. The invention further relates to methods for producing the modified pig; and methods for evaluating the effect of a therapeutical treatment of psoriasis, for screening the efficacy of a pharmaceutical composition, and a method for treatment of human being suffering from psoriasis are disclosed.
