Linear correlation between beta-cell mass and body weight throughout the lifespan in Lewis rats: role of beta-cell hyperplasia and hypertrophy.
Open accessAbstract
We determined the beta-cell replicative rate, beta-cell apoptosis, cross-sectional beta-cell area, and pancreatic beta-cell mass throughout the entire postweaning lifespan (months 1, 3, 7, 10, 15, and 20) of Lewis rats. Beta-cell replication was progressively reduced in the initial months of life but remained stable after month 7 (month 1, 0.99 +/- 0.10%; month 3, 0.24 +/- 0.04%; month 7, 0.12 +/- 0.02%; month 10, 0.14 +/- 0.02%; month 15, 0.10 +/- 0.03%; month 20, 0.13 +/- 0.03%; analysis of variance [ANOVA], P < 0.001). Beta-cell apoptosis was low and did not change significantly from month 1 to 20 of life. Cross-sectional area of individual beta-cells increased progressively in the initial months, remained stable from month 7 to 15, and increased again on month 20. The estimated number of beta-cells per pancreas, calculated as the ratio of total beta-cell mass to individual beta-cell mass, tripled from month 1 to 7 but did not change significantly thereafter. Beta-cell mass increased approximately 8 times from month 1 to 20 (month 1, 2.04 +/- 0.28 mg; month 20, 15.5 +/- 2.32 mg; ANOVA, P < 0.001) and showed a strong and significant linear correlation with body weight (r = 0.98, P < 0.001). In summary, we have shown that beta-cell replication was maintained throughout the lifespan in normal rats, clearly establishing that the beta-cell birth rate does not fall to 0, even in very old rats. Beta-cell mass increased throughout the lifespan, closely matching the increment in total body weight at any time point. This increment was selective for beta-cells, since the growth of the endocrine non-beta-cell mass was limited to the initial months of life. Both beta-cell hypertrophy and hyperplasia contributed to increased beta-cell mass in young animals, but only beta-cell hypertrophy was responsible for the increased beta-cell mass found in old animals. This study provides a global perspective for understanding the dynamics of beta-cell mass in young, adult, and aged animals.

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.
