What's fascinating to me is that they are jumping from slowed developmental growth to immortality. Aging comes from a variety of factors from
degradation of the genetic material, diet, environmental exposures, and more. The degradation aspect, from what I recall, is due to minor encryption
errors during cellular replication. Really interesting thing was the first thought that popped in my head was that these children were lacking in
human growth hormone but apparently, Brooke and others have been given HGH to no effect.
It's also not the telomeres as some posters have suggested. Those are apparently normal as well. Their genetic material is apparently totally
normal. Perhaps it's a perfect storm of normal differences in genetic code that happened to create a scenario where HGH has zero effect, hence the
slow or ceased growth. Basically, things that everyone has but these children have just the right combination to create the phenomena seen. My guess
at least.
