NEUROENDOCRINE FUNCTIONS IN POST-INSTITUTIONALIZED CHILDREN

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。本研究项目的主要目的是确定早期忽视和剥夺是否会影响儿童压力敏感系统、下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺皮质（HPA）轴和生长激素（GH）系统之间的相互作用和发育，从而影响后机构儿童的身体生长。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The main goal of this research program is to determine whether early neglect and deprivatoin can influence the development and interactions between the stress-sensitive system, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis and the growth hormone (GH) system in children that affect physical growth in post-institutionalized children.
