Growth and growth hormone secretion
Journal of Endocrinology, 1988Growth hormone pulse amplitude is intimately connected with growth in childhood. Its effects are most clear in middle childhood, although the influence of adrenal androgens is probably also important. In infancy, nutrition plays an important part and, in the adolescent growth spurt, the synergism with sex steroids is important. Detailed attention needs

Growth and growth hormone: An overview
Growth Hormone & IGF Research, 2016Growth is a good indicator of a child's health. Growth disturbances, including short stature or growth failure, could be indications of illnesses such as chronic disease, nutritional deficits, celiac disease or hormonal abnormalities. Therefore, a careful assessment of the various requirements for normal growth needs to be done by history, physical ...

Innovative and, in particular, rapidly growing enterprises generate new jobs, new products and services or even new markets [for the role in industry evolution played by newly emerging populations of firms see, e.g., Aldrich (1999)]. Such enterprises strive to build and improve their market position, increase their turnover and may also achieve rising ...

Knowledge of growth and the growth of knowledge [PDF]
The central theme of this address is the complicated relationship between the growth of the economy and the growth of knowledge. This theme is explored with the help of a single concept “restless capitalism” which is used to capture the idea that capitalism in equilibrium is a contradiction in terms precisely because the growth of knowledge cannot be ...

The Origins of Growth: Past Growth, Predicted Growth and Fundamental Growth
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2008A key input, when valuing businesses, is the expected growth rate in earnings and cash flows. Allowing for a higher growth rate in earnings usually translates into higher value for a firm. But why do some firms grow faster than others? In other words, where does growth come from?

Growth factors and growth control
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1990Polypeptide growth factors are thought to govern a variety of physiological processes such as cell growth, differentiation, embryogenesis, hematopoiesis, and wound repair. Although it is well documented that growth factors are required for cell proliferation in tissue-culture systems, current knowledge of their in uivo functions is still meager.

The growth of the growth point
Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2006Ever since psychology emerged as a science in the late 19th century, psychological theories have repeatedly defined themselves in oppositional contrasts: the static (e.g. Titchener's structuralism) versus dynamic (e.g. Angell's functionalism), and the holistic (e.g. gestalt psychology, Tolman's purposive behaviorism) versus analytic (e.g.

In man the journey from conception to physical maturity occupies almost a quarter of the life span. Knowledge of the normal variations of growth and development and the interactions of disease with this orderly process is fundamental to the medicine of childhood.

Growth Hormone and Cell Growth
2012Growth hormone (GH) promotes stem cell activation, cell proliferation, differentiation and survival, either directly or through the induction of IGF-1. GH acts via its cell membrane receptor to initiate a range of signalling pathways, with JAK2 kinase activation of STAT5 being the most important. The transcription factor STAT5 acts to induce expression

The Growth Hormone Receptor in Growth
Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2007The growth hormone receptor (GHR) is a major effector of Human growth. Functional variants of the GHR include very rare loss-of-function mutations (pathology) and very common polymorphisms (physiology). Recent experimental data have clarified the mechanisms through which mutations of the GHR or Stat5 lead to growth hormone insensitivity and major ...
