2 Porque é que somos o que somos? Porque crescemos como crescemos? larger mammals fewer offspring Walker et als, 2008 Slow growing Late reproducing Long lived Large brained Extreme immaturity after birth Short duration of breast feeding Extended period of dependence of the young beyond breast feeding Multigenerational resource support by older people Menopause and long postmenopausal life Hochberg, 2012

3 Dilema obstétrico Washburn 1960 Brain Growth and Bipedalism head and brain growth along with mental and motor development have been deferred into the post natal period ( Leutenegger 1973). High energy consuming Growth velocity (cm/year) years

12 Development plasticity and human disease Gluckman PD & Hanson MA, J Int Med Integrated responses to the predictive environment Likely response to a secure environment Investment for longevity (predictive response) Commitment to repair Commitment to tissue reserve (neuronal & nephron number) Investment for large adult size (predictive response) Greater bone mass Greater muscle growth Likely response to a threatening environment Expenditure to survive to birth (immediate adaptive response) Smaller birth size Prematurity Fetal sarcopenia Reproductive strategy (predictive response) Altered time of menarche Investment to resist threatening and difficult environment (predictive response) Altered hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis Increased behaviour, altered anxiety Increased propensity to store fat Central components Increased appetite Altered food preference Reduced motor behaviour Peripheral components Altered hepatic development and function Sarcopenia Altered insulin release and action Impaired action of GH and IGF factors Leptin resistance Altered endothelial function
