Human shock absorber found

• An international team,  led by the University of Sydney, found the  molecular structure in the body which functions as human ―shock absorber.
• the team dissected  a key part of the molecule  in Elastin, the  protein that keeps  tissues such as skin, lungs and blood  vessels elastic during normal processes  such as body movement, breathing  and blood  circulation.
• the  discovery of the molecule  can be used on designing  improved versions of a human blood  vessel
• on repairing skin damage,  including burns,
• can also be applied to treating  cardiovascular disease and emphysema, a lung disease which primarily causes shortness of breath.
• The discovery answers the mystery of how our bodies accommodate our living tissue without it being torn to shreds by its interaction with so many moving parts
