1. The effects of different levels of first winter nutrition over 3 years were studied from 18 months to maturity on the growth and development of groups of North and South Country Cheviot ewe hoggs (sheep between 6 months and 1½ years).2. Differences in live weight amongst treatment groups within breeds and years were not significant at 30 months or any subsequent age. Live weight increase continued up to 54 months. Although leg growth had virtually ceased in all treatment groups by 18 months, body growth continued beyond 27 months and differences between treatments, although not always significant, were still present at that time.3. The effects of first-winter treatment were also studied on the heavy and light hoggs (i.e. those above and below average weight) prior to treatment. Differences in weight and size between treatment groups were less persistent in the heavy animals, disappearing by 30 months, while in the light animals they were still present at that time. Regardless of treatment the within-group differences between heavy and light animals increased up to 54 months, the light animals showing relatively slower rates of gain.4. The difficulty of interpreting data on liveweight change due to age, state of maturity, level of feed, and season interactions is commented on. The probable effects of differential productivity resulting from treatment on growth and development from 18 months onwards are discussed.

1. Over 3 years, different levels of first winter nutrition were imposed on groups of North and South Country Cheviot ewe hoggs (lambs). In 1956–57, three levels, high, mid and low, were fed indoors. In 1957-58, only two levels, high and mid, were fed indoors, with the low level being represented by hill wintering. In 1958–59, two levels were represented by away wintering and hill wintering.2. Low-plane feeding was designed to simulate average hill wintering, creating a 10% loss in live weight. Mid-plane feeding was designed to maintain live weight at approximately the same level throughout the winter. High-plane feeding was designed to produce a live-weight gain of 15–20% in 1956–57 and the maximum gain possible in 1957–58.

Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1α (HNF-1α) is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor and is important in postnatal growth and development in mice. In the HNF-1α-deficient liver, the expressions of a large set of growth hormone (GH)-responsive genes were significantly downregulated. By analyzing various HNF-1α mutant mice, we disclosed a mechanism by which hepatic HNF-1α regulates the expression of GH-responsive genes that are crucial for growth and development. We found that HNF-1α is required for the normal expression of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) specifically in livers. In the liver, GR, together with STAT5, is known to mediate the GH action by transactivating the GH-responsive genes that function in body growth and development. We further demonstrated that HNF-1α modulated GR gene expression by directly transactivating the GR gene promoter via a cryptic regulatory element located 3 bp upstream of the translation start site in exon 2 of the GR gene locus.

Cysticercoids of Hymenolepis microstoma have been cultured in vitro to egg-producing adults in 16 days using Eagle's medium with horse serum plus sheep or hamster liver extract, and ox bile. Bile was essential for egg production but not for general body growth. Worms became gravid when cultured under 0, 5, and 10% oxygen. However, growth and development was greatly inhibited when higher concentrations of oxygen were used.

In childhood, the process of growth and development happens very quickly. If food does not contain enough nutrients needed, and this situation lasts longer, it will cause changes in metabolism in the brain. This will result in the inability of the brain to function normally. In more severe and chronic conditions, nutritional deficiencies lead to aging body growth. The outcome target of community service is in the form of services aimed at improving the knowledge and participation of the community in monitoring the nutrition and growth of their children periodically. Method of implementation is done by counseling and question and answer. The results of this activity are held in Pulosari, Karangasem, Sroyo village on February 22, 2015, with the total number of 33 participants and the enthusiasm of the participants to follow the activities to completion. The conclusion of community service is the increase of knowledge and awareness as well as community participation related to nutrition and growth of their children.
