According to Benigni, the research team's analysis also suggests that the increased lifespan in mice lacking AT1A was likely a result of decreased oxidative damage to cells, a key factor in ageing, and increased levels of genes involved in cell survival.
The second step entails applying an inactivated oxidative dye composition over the alkalizing composition combined with the aqueous oxidizing agent to color the hair.
BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress has been reported to contribute to aging and cataract formation in the lens.
