The distribution of cellular turnover in the human body
Abstract
We integrated ubiquity, mass and lifespan of all major cell types to achieve a comprehensive quantitative description of cellular turnover. We found a total cellular mass turnover of 80 ± 20 grams per day, dominated by blood cells and gut epithelial cells. In terms of cell numbers, close to 90% of the (0.33 ± 0.02) × 10 12 cells per day turnover was blood cells.

In the citing paper
“The cell types that build each organ are subject to different turnover rates. Some differentiated cell types can last a lifetime, such as neurons in the brain or cardiomyocytes in the heart. Other differentiated cell types are continuously lost and replenished quickly, such as red blood cells, monocytes and epithelial cells of the skin and intestine2.”

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.
