Frequent turnover, requiring some relatively constant commitment of energetic resources, though the metabolic cost of this is unknown. Our data also imply that there are meaningful differences in low levels of CRP. Interestingly, administration of human CRP to mice protects against pneumococcal infections, but not if CRP is administered after exposure to the bacteria, suggesting an early prophylac

E both investing heavily in growth and had high adiposity, however their CRP levels (M = ?.63, SD = 0.97) did not differ significantly from girls with similar levels of adiposity who were not investing in growth (M = ?.87, SD = 1.09, t = ?.10, P = 0.28). Girls who were investing in growth and had low adiposity had the lowest CRP levels of any group (M = ?.74, SD = 1.10), significantly lower than g

Ping physiological categories in ways that optimize fitness [5, 38]. The adolescent transition is a particularly useful time to consider energetic dynamics, as during puberty investment in linear growth is first increased (the adolescent growth spurt) and then terminated. Meanwhile, investment in reproduction, manifested in females as the development of primary and secondary sexual characteristics
