Scientists have proposed how to make the skin regenerate as it occurs in childhood.

So, the attention of scientists at the University of Washington acts as a molecular switch in the skin of mice, the Lef1 transcription factor. It is formed during the formation of the skin, and remains deactivated in the adult body.

When the component managed to restore activity in an adult mouse, scientists discovered that the skin of rodents did not simply heal. Scars and scars did not remain on the wound sites, and hair even began to grow.
