This paper analyses the interaction between human capital accumulation, fertility, and labour participation of families in the presence of technology shocks. Altruistic families spend time on the education of their children to increase their level of human capital.

Growth Hormone & IGF Research, 2000
The proportion of elderly people is steadily growing in Western societies. The result is a disproportionate accumulation of the oldest and most vulnerable sector of the population, suffering from frailty-associated disorders and cardiovascular diseases. Growth hormone (GH) secretion declines progressively during adulthood.

Effects of in utero and early life conditions on adult health and disease such as cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes are well documented by epidemiological and clinical observations. Animal models including intrauterine artery ligation, maternal restriction of iron, protein or general caloric intake, provide invaluable tools to understand ...

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1957
For a good many years I have been interested in problems of aging, the changes in man which appear with the passage of time. Medicine must be concerned with the deep dissatisfactions of our aging citizens; if for no other reason it is because of the spectacular increase in numbers. This is a huge problem for society to solve.

Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 1998
Growth hormone (GH) actions impact growth, metabolism, and body composition and have been associated with aging and longevity. Lack of GH results in slower growth, delayed maturation, and reduced body size and can lead to delayed aging, increased healthspan, and a remarkable extension of longevity.

Growth Hormone & IGF Research, 1999
Although the age-related decline in serum levels of growth hormone (GH) is well documented, l,2 the possible role of GH in the control of ageing is controversial. GHreleasing peptides (GHRPs) act at both the pituitary and the hypothalamic level, where specific receptors have been located.

Growth factors and muscle ageing
Experimental Gerontology, 2004Loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) is one of the main problems associated with ageing as it has major health care as well as socioeconomic implications. The growth hormone (GH)/IGF-I axis is regarded as an important regulator of muscle mass. However, it is now appreciated that other tissues in addition to the liver express IGF-I and that there are local ...

Although the fundamental mechanisms of in vitro cell aging are still undetermined, certain prominent features have emerged that serve to delineate or focus the search for these mechanisms. In Table 3.1 we present a selected list of changes that accompany senescence in culture.

Growth, Growth Efficiency and Ageing
2012Man has a relatively long developmental phase through the early years of life to adulthood. As described in Chap. 1, Starlings and Martins reach adult weight at 3 weeks after hatching from the egg. In man, adult weight is reached between 15 and 18 years after birth.
