The present invention provides a paramyxovirus vector for gene transfer to the cardiovascular system and uses thereof. The invention enables the efficient transfer of a foreign gene product to the cardiovascular system by use of the paramyxovirus vector. Products of genes introduced by intranasal or intramuscular administration of the paramyxovirus vector were detected in blood at high levels. The administration of a vector for the expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 inhibited collagen deposition in lung of pulmonary fibrosis model animal. Thus, the vector of the present invention is suitable for gene transfer to the cardiovascular system.

L'invention concerne un vecteur de paramyxovirus destiné au transfert de gènes dans le système cardiovasculaire ainsi que l'utilisation de ce vecteur. Cette invention permet un transfert efficace d'un produit génique étranger dans le système cardiovasculaire au moyen d'un vecteur de paramyxovirus. Les produits géniques introduits par voie intranasale ou intramusculaire au moyen du vecteur de paramyxovirus ont été détectés dans le sang en grandes quantités. L'administration d'un vecteur destiné à l'expression de la cytokine IL-10 anti-inflammatoire inhibait le dépôt de collagène dans les poumons d'animaux souffrant de fibrose pulmonaire. Le vecteur de l'invention permet ainsi de transférer des gènes dans le système cardiovasculaire.
