STIMULATION OF THE SYNTHESIS AND ACTIVITY OF A LYSYL OXIDASE-LIKE LOXL ISOFORM TO STIMULATE THE FORMATION OF ELASTIC FIBERS

摘要

The invention relates to the stimulation of the synthesis and of the activity of an isoform of lysyl oxidase, and more particularly of the LOXL (lysyl oxidase-like) isoform. The Invention relates notably to a method of identifying an active principle which stimulates the formation of elastic fibers. The aim of the invention is mainly to provide such a method of identification so as to provide compositions which enable stimulating the formation of elastic fibers.
