Perms work for all hair types and any hair length, on the condition that the hair follicles are not severely damaged by bleach or heat styling tools. Perm is a chemical solution that intervenes with your natural texture, so you’d like to start with healthy locks (more on that later). ...

Let’s start with the obvious cause; aging. The cells in mammalian hair follicles that produce the color (melanin) that we see, are known as melanocytes. Cats either start their lives with more of these in their hair follicles, or their melanocytes degrade more slowly than other animals (sc...
describe at least two sub-populations of stem cells, with different proliferation rates, similar to stem cell niches in hair follicles26,27, bone marrow28 and intestine29. In addition to the sub-population dedicated to making columnar chondrocytes, there seems to be another, more dormant, sub-...
White hair is common for the aged. This is due to the fall in production of a pigment (melanin) in the hair follicles with age growth.But premature whitening of hair is mainly due to faulty diet and sometimes that may be hereditary.Also artificial hair colours effect the hair.Increasing bl...

Both the level of 5-HT immunoreactivity in oocytes and the diameter of the same oocytes and follicles were measured with the subsequent cor...
T helpers are not fully mature and secrete low amounts of IL-21, but active T-helper-2 cells in T-cell zones near B-cell follicles are already present. However, Allen also suggests that, in the tissue microenvironment, a low local concentration of IL-21 may also be favorable for IgE...
