A twin-sibling study on early growth and hormone levels in adolescents.

Behavior genetics - 1 May 2015

Estourgie-van Burk G Frederiek, Bartels Meike, Boomsma Dorret I

Abstract excerpt

This study addresses how growth during sensitive developmental periods and genes may affect hormone levels in late adolescence. We analyzed hormone levels of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), which are hypothesized to be two pathways linking early growth with adult diseases (such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease) via their effects on enhanced insulin...
