Skeletal age changes in puberty.
Changes in skeletal age and height of 34 Leeds schoolboys were studied in a four year longitudinal survey covering puberty. Tanner and Whitehouse method TW2 was used. In each boy, skeletal age advanced rapidly during puberty, reaching a peak at an age related to that of peak height velocity. The importance of recognising that this acceleration of bone age is normal is stressed, in order to avoi...
متن کاملAge-related Changes in GDNF Content of Skeletal Muscle
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a very potent neurotrophic factor that promotes the maintenance and survival of peripheral motor neurons and is expressed in skeletal muscle. Progressive loss of motor neurons occurs with aging, and over time this degeneration elicits devastating consequences on the physical performance and quality of life of the elderly. One possible explan...
متن کاملAge-Associated Changes in Skeletal Muscle Regeneration: Effect of Exercise
Aim of the present short review is to provide a comprehensive update on age-associated skeletal muscle damage, regeneration, and effect of endurance and resistance type of exercise training on muscle regeneration. Decrease in muscle quantity and quality leads to disability in the aging population. The degradation rate of muscle proteins during aging increased about two times, and muscle strengt...
متن کاملStudies on the potential mediators of skeletal changes occurring during puberty in girls.
In this study we evaluated the role of cytokines and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system in mediating the skeletal changes that occur during puberty by determining the relationship between serum levels of cytokines and IGF system components vs. 1) bone formation and resorption parameters in serum and urine, 2) bone density, and 3) metacarpal bone indexes in 65 pubertal girls. Lumbar bone mi...
متن کاملChanges in the male voice at puberty.
The changes in the male voice in relation to the biological characteristics of puberty were assessed longitudinally in 26 boys. Speaking and singing fundamental frequencies were analysed in relation to the Tanner staging of puberty, saliva testosterone levels, and the Cooksey classification of voice analysis. There were abrupt changes in voice characteristics between Tanner stages G3 and G4 and...
