    Summary: This book demonstrates that there are wide-ranging potential challenges in addressing issues associated with ageing populations in both developed and developing countries of the region. This book brings together local, national and regional perspectives on the ageing population and sustainable development nexus in selected countries in the Asia Pacific region. The countries selected in this book include a mix of developed and developing economies that all reflect strong trade, investment and migration linkages. While the Asia Pacific region is forecast to enjoy high growth in the coming decade, a recurring common policy challenge is addressing the demographic time bomb posed by ageing populations and workforces (Montague et al., 2017). Consequently, this book focuses on strategic policies and practices of multiple stakeholders, primarily: governments, industry and education systems, together with, the range of aged care services providers in more effectively addressing these key socio-economic challenges associated with the ageing population for sustainable development.

    Luliberin (LH-RH) in the preioptic region of the hypothalamus, the region of the arcuate nuclei, and of the medial eminence, the region of the dorsomedial nuclei and in the blood serum was studied in intact female rats with a stable 4-day cycle, and also in thyroidectomized female animals. LH-RH content rose significantly during the morning hours of the proestrus both in the cyclic and in the tonic centres of the hypothalamus. At the same time there was an increase of this hormone secretion. Thyroidectomy blocked the LH-RH synthesis and secretion elevation in both areas at the proestrus stage. In the region of the dorsomedial nuclei LH-RH content remained at the same level in the both groups of the animals. During the day at the proestrus stage, intact animals displayed definite regularities in the LH-RH synthesis in both the hypothalamic centres, and also in its secretion (absent in thyroidectomized animals). The data obtained indicated disturbance of cyclic discharge of LH-RH after thyroidectomy to be largely connected with reduciton of the hormone level in the cyclic centre localized in the preoptic region of the hypothalamus.
