  2. Spindle apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_apparatus

    It is referred to as the mitotic spindle during mitosis, a process that produces genetically identical daughter cells, or the meiotic spindle during meiosis, a process that produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. Besides chromosomes, the spindle apparatus is composed of hundreds of proteins.

  3. Dyshidrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyshidrosis

    Dyshidrosis is a type of dermatitis, characterized by itchy vesicles of 1–2 mm in size, on the palms of the hands, sides of fingers, or bottoms of the feet. [8] Outbreaks usually conclude within three to four weeks, but often recur. [4] [8] Repeated attacks may result in fissures and skin thickening. [7] The cause of the condition is not ...

  4. Oil cleansing method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_cleansing_method

    However, overly oily skin can make use of a larger proportion of castor oil. [2] [3] Other oils that are commonly used are jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, argan oil, rosehip oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, and grapeseed oil. [3] Furthermore, some sources say that the oil cleansing method is not viable for sensitive skin. [4]

  5. Spindle pole body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_pole_body

    The spindle pole body (SPB) is the microtubule organizing center in yeast cells, functionally equivalent to the centrosome. Unlike the centrosome the SPB does not contain centrioles. The SPB organises the microtubule cytoskeleton which plays many roles in the cell. It is important for organising the spindle and thus in cell division.

  6. Spindle oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_oil

    Spindle oils are a type of low-viscosity mineral oil marketed for use in lubrication of high-speed machine spindles. [1] Spindle oil is free from gumming properties. [2] Since the viscosity is so low that the oil runs off the surface of the spindle during shut-down periods, the spindle oil may be doped with additives that prevent rusting.

  7. Central spindle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_spindle

    [1] [2] [3] The central spindle is widely regarded as a key regulating center for cytokinesis, recruiting proteins for successful cleavage furrow positioning and membrane abscission. For these important roles to be achieved successfully the central spindle has to be carefully regulated to control the size of the overlap region, the alignment of ...

  8. Hair care - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_care

    The sebaceous glands in human skin produce sebum, which is composed primarily of fatty acids. Sebum acts to protect hair and skin, and can inhibit the growth of microorganisms on the skin. Sebum contributes to the skin's slightly acidic natural pH somewhere between 5 and 6.8 on the pH spectrum. This oily substance gives hair moisture and shine ...

  9. Type Ia sensory fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_Ia_sensory_fiber

    A muscle spindle, with γ motor and Ia sensory fibers. A type Ia sensory fiber, or a primary afferent fiber, is a type of afferent nerve fiber. [1] It is the sensory fiber of a stretch receptor called the muscle spindle found in muscles, which constantly monitors the rate at which a muscle stretch changes.
