We present a brief overview of the areas of planning and control to provide a context for the individual papers in this special issue. For both topics we consider development across the life span, subgroup variations (e.g. by gender), and correlates (e.g. well-being). We then explore potential linkages between planning and control. Our attempt to integrate control and planning is meant to stimulate future work which considers these processes together from a life span perspective.

ABSTRACT:- Aging is a process of physical, psychological and social change in multidimensional aspects. As the age advances body becomes fragile, digestion and metabolism gets weakened and the body surrenders to various diseases. According to Ayurveda Vatadosha is most important factor in aging process. Aim of ayurveda is not only to treat the disease but also maintain the healthy status of individual. Vruddhavastha is last part of life span and it is mainly characterized by degenerating changes. In Ayurveda there are many concepts to decrease these degenerative changes in early age and maintain health status. Use of Rasayan chikitsa, Panchkarma and various herbal drugs can delay aging process. Rasayanchikitsa has also called as jara chikitsa is unique branch of Ayurveda to delay aging and control degeneration. Hence Ayurveda has broad spectrum of preventing measures for combating the aging process and related disorders.

Social-emotional learning (SEL) is important for academic and social success, yet responsive SEL for Black youth remains underexamined. The current study analyzed focus groups to investigate how Black boys ( N = 10) in an urban middle school think about emotion and its regulation. Results revealed that participants negotiate tension between emotion expression and control; they argued that inhibition of emotions in public was essential, but they desired greater emotional freedom. We interpret these patterns through the developmental framework of accommodation and resistance. We discuss implications and the need for transformative SEL in urban schools serving Black boys.

Intake of food and nutrition plays a major role in affecting aging process and longevity. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the ageing process are still unclear. To this respect, diet has been considered to be a determinant of ageing process. In order to better illustrate this, we usedDrosophila melanogasteras a model and fed them orally with different concentrations of two commonly used Indian medicinal plant products,Curcuma longa(rhizome) andEmblica officinalis(fruit). The results revealed significant increase in life span ofDrosophilaflies on exposure to both the plant products, more efficiently byC. Longathan byE. officinalis. In order to understand whether the increase in lifespan was due to high-antioxidant properties of these medicinal plants, we performed enzymatic assays to assess the SOD and catalase activities in case of both treated and controlDrosophilaflies. Interestingly, the results support the free radical theory of aging as both these plant derivatives show high reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activities.

Control Striving

Given the inconsistent findings in the literature, we examined age-cohort differences in various personal control judgements over the lifespan ( N = 1623; ages 14-85). For three distinct life domains (personal, social, and societal), participants rated their amount of personal control, the goal importance, the degree of control striving, and, in comparison with same-aged peers, their relative control in each domain. Within this broad lifespan range, the developmental trends showed, as expected, different trajectories depending upon the type of control dimension and the nature of the life domain. The differential nature of these age-cohort trends have important implications for understanding the inconsistent findings reported in the literature, namely, that depending on the nature of the life domain, the type of control dimension, and the age range tested, the trajectories can either increase, decrease, or remain stable. These trends are discussed with reference to various metatheoretical perspectives on lifespan development and control-related judgements.

First Time

The two studies presented here were conducted to explore the relationship between metacognitive monitoring and control processes across the life-span. Monitoring processes often guide control processes (goal-oriented learning), yet more recent work also documents that control processes can also be based on feedback from monitoring processes (data-oriented learning). Study 1 provided first evidence for data-oriented learning in older adults and in a life-span perspective. Participants of four age groups (third-grade children, adolescents, younger and older adults) were able to adapt their Judgments-Of-Learning (JOLs) based on their Study Time (ST). Effects were most pronounced for younger and older adults. Study 2 investigated the flexible interplay between goal- and data-oriented learning within one learning task for the first time in older adults and from a life-span perspective. Adolescents and younger adults were able to switch between models while elementary children and older adults hat greater difficulties to do so. Possible causes for developmental trends are discussed. In sum, the integration of both goal- and data-oriented learning within one task seems to be a complex process.

Abstract Platelet activation requires fully functional mitochondria, which provide a vital energy source and control the life span of platelets. Previous reports have shown that both general autophagy and selective mitophagy are critical for platelet function. However, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that Nix, a previously characterized mitophagy receptor that plays a role in red blood cell maturation, also mediates mitophagy in platelets. Genetic ablation of Nix impairs mitochondrial quality, platelet activation, and FeCl3-induced carotid arterial thrombosis without affecting the expression of platelet glycoproteins (GPs) such as GPIb, GPVI, and αIIbβ3. Metabolic analysis revealed decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, enhanced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species level, diminished oxygen consumption rate, and compromised adenosine triphosphate production in Nix−/− platelets. Transplantation of wild-type (WT) bone marrow cells or transfusion of WT platelets into Nix-deficient mice rescued defects in platelet function and thrombosis, suggesting a platelet-autonomous role (acting on platelets, but not other cells) of Nix in platelet activation. Interestingly, loss of Nix increases the life span of platelets in vivo, likely through preventing autophagic degradation of the mitochondrial protein Bcl-xL. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel mechanistic link between Nix-mediated mitophagy, platelet life span, and platelet physiopathology. Our work suggests that targeting platelet mitophagy Nix might provide new antithrombotic strategies.

SummaryThe tw5 haplotype is a recessive mutation which is lethal when homozygous in mouse embryos following implantation. This series of studies was undertaken to determine the effect of the tw5/tw5 genotype on embryos developing in vitro. Blastocyst embryos from + / tw5inter se matings were compared with control blastocysts obtained from matings between T/ + and + / + females and + / tw5 males for their abilities to continue development in vitro in two culture media. The data show that there are no significant differences between the percentages of experimental and control blastocyst embryos which attach and outgrow or which contain inner cell masses on any day of culture up to equivalent gestation day 21 in either media. These findings show that the life span of cells from tw5 / tw5 embryos can be extended significantly by in vitro culture.
