Dynamics of Cell Generation and Turnover in the Human Heart
Open accessAbstract
The contribution of cell generation to physiological heart growth and maintenance in humans has been difficult to establish and has remained controversial. We report that the full complement of cardiomyocytes is established perinataly and remains stable over the human lifespan, whereas the numbers of both endothelial and mesenchymal cells increase substantially from birth to early adulthood. Analysis of the integration of nuclear bomb test-derived (14)C revealed a high turnover rate of endothelial cells throughout life (>15% per year) and more limited renewal of mesenchymal cells (<4% per year in adulthood). Cardiomyocyte exchange is highest in early childhood and decreases gradually throughout life to <1% per year in adulthood, with similar turnover rates in the major subdivisions of the myocardium. We provide an integrated model of cell generation and turnover in the human heart.

“This is because of the variability and dynamism of the number of nuclei per cardiomyocyte in addition to the differences between rodents and humans—most murine cardiomyocytes are binucleated,(32,33) whereas most human cardiomyocytes are mononucleated.(2,34) Therefore, estimations of myocyte to nonmyocyte ratios will d…”

“Although the majority of the adult CMs are considered post-mitotic, the adult heart retains limited potential for CM proliferation (Senyo et al , 2013; Bergmann et al , 2015; Richardson et al , 2015).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
