Small furry mammals partial to a daily dose of hibernation during the winter are probably the extension of life at the same time, according to a study published.
Experiments with native Siberian hamsters Djugarian showed that when small rodents temporarily lower your metabolism and body temperature, a state called torpor, stops and even reverses a natural decomposition of chromosomes associated with aging.
Each time a cell divides, the telomeres are worn a bit small. The work of the enzyme is partially reconstructed. Finally, when telomeres are worn beyond repair, cell death is triggered.
Telomeres and telomerase, the enzyme that control, are key players in aging and longevity.

Australian-American cell biologist Elizabeth Blackburn, who shared the 2009 Nobel Prize in Medicine for his work in the field, the telomeres is similar to the "tip of the shoelace" - loses its final plastic and lace begins to unravel.
For hamsters, daily torpor, which usually lasts several hours, in some way acted to preserve these safety tips, and even for the restoration
