When fat cells in the skin decreases in size and number, there is nothing left to fill the upper hudlagren. The skin becomes wrinkly.

Mina Bissell in Berkeley and Eva Tureley at the University of Western Ontario studied the role of a protein (made from drawings in the gene RHAMM - hyaluronan mediated motility receptor) has to create the fat needed for the tissues will heal. Musstudierna showed that it is possible to control the gene so that the body reduces the production of the protein. The result was that new fat cells formed in the skin of older mice and that the accelerated wound healing. And what is more, even dangerous layer of fat around the internal organs decreased.

- The technology has the potential to develop into a non-surgical alternative to rynkborttagning, facelift or changes in the figure, "says Mina Bisell in a statement.

- It could also have considerable importance for the healing of burns.
To keep the protein in check may also have other benefits, Eva Tureley, has previously shown that excessive levels of the protein contributes to cancer can spread in the body.

- Animal studies suggest that patients with tumors or inflammatory diseases may benefit from resources that regulates RHAMM, "she says. And they also have low toxicity.
