Enhanced at puberty 1 (EAP1) is a new transcriptional regulator of the female neuroendocrine reproductive axis [PDF]

, 2007
The initiation of mammalian puberty and the maintenance of female reproductive cycles are events controlled by hypothalamic neurons that secrete the decapeptide gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

DOHAD and early pubertal timing [PDF]

International Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology, 2015
Age at menarche varies widely between girls, is estimated to be highly heritable and is associated with long-term health outcomes, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Earlier pubertal maturation in boys and girls links rapid postnatal growth weight gain to later life metabolic and cardiovascular disease [1,2].

Externalizing problems among Kosovar adolescents: pubertal correlates in girls and boys

International Journal of Adolescence and Youth
Pubertal timing and pubertal developmental status or stage have been associated with the rates of externalizing problems among youth, particularly in vulnerable developmental contexts including cultures undergoing rapid transformations. The present study

Evo-devo of human adolescence: beyond disease models of early puberty [PDF]

, 2013
Despite substantial heritability in pubertal development, much variation remains to be explained, leaving room for the influence of environmental factors to adjust its phenotypic trajectory in the service of fitness goals.

Pubertal timing and grade effects on adjustment

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 1985
Effects on adjustment of biological maturation and social timing were compared using data from a longitudinal sample of 335 young adolescents, who were followed from the sixth through eighth grades. Biological maturation was estimated from the relative timing of the adolescent growth spurt. Social timing was assessed by grade in school. Five adjustment

Peer Group Similarity in Perceptions of Pubertal Timing [PDF]

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2015
Self-report measures of perceived pubertal timing correspond only weakly with clinical measures of "objective" physical development. Peer and school contexts shape adolescents' self-perceptions of pubertal timing. The current study examined associations between perceived pubertal timing and the pubertal timing reported by nominated friends and ...

Multimethod assessment of pubertal timing and associations with internalizing psychopathology in early adolescent girls.

Journal of Abnormal Psychology, 2020
Early pubertal timing has consistently been associated with internalizing psychopathology in adolescent girls. Here, we aimed to examine whether the association between timing and mental health outcomes varies by measurement of pubertal timing and ...

The Stability of Perceived Pubertal Timing Across Adolescence [PDF]

Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 2011
It is unknown whether perceived pubertal timing changes as puberty progresses or whether it is an important component of adolescent identity formation that is fixed early in pubertal development. The purpose of this study is to examine the stability of perceived pubertal timing among a school-based sample of rural adolescents aged 11 to 17 (N=6,425; 50%

Mutational analysis of DAX1 in patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism or pubertal delay [PDF]

, 1999
Although delayed puberty is relatively common and often familial, its molecular and pathophysiologic basis is poorly understood. In contrast, the molecular mechanisms underlying some forms of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) are clearer, following the ...
