Peripheral neuropathy is characterized by numbness, tingling, and/or pain, typically in the hands and feet, although these symptoms can occur in other areas of the body. There can be numerous causes of a peripheral neuropathy. Diabetes is perhaps the most common cause, although other causes can include trauma, infections, and nutrient deficiencies. And this is yet another problem which does seem to be more common in people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions.
Once transplanted, the stem cells spontaneously grew into hair follicles that produced hair in the mice. Researchers say they also identified a set of genes that are turned on by the stem cells, which may provide new targets for manipulating hair growth.
Hair follicles forms a cluster of cells in the upper layer of the skin. These cluster of cells are called the primitive hair germ, which needs nourishment to grow into a dev â¦ eloped hair follicle. To get nourishment it works all the way down into the lower layer of the skin. That black bump (which is clear or white in blonde hair) is not the follicle itself but the root of the strand. Think of it as the bulb of a flower. Your hair follicle i â¦ s part of your scalp.
