Abstract:
:According to the 'Hayflick limit', human fetal fibroblasts have a uniform, limited replicative lifespan of about 50 population doublings in cell culture. This concept was extrapolated to diverse cells in the body. It seemed to decrease with the age of the cell donor and, as a form of cell senescence, was thought to underlie the aging process. More discriminating analysis, however, showed that the fibroblasts decayed in a stochastic manner from the time of their explantation, at a rate that increased with the number of population doublings in culture. There was no consistent relation to the age of the donor. Despite the contradictory evidence, the original version of the Hayflick limit retained its general acceptance. Cell senescence was attributed to the absence of telomerase in the fibroblasts, which resulted in shortening of telomeres at each division until they fell below a critical length needed for further division. However, it is well established that stem cells in renewing tissues undergo many more than 50 divisions in a lifetime, without apparent senescence. Contrary to early findings of no telomerase in most tissues, their stem cells retain telomerase and presumably telomere length despite many divisions in vivo. Massive accumulation of lipofuscin granules occurs under stress in long term crowded cultures, but the granules dissipate on subculture or neoplastic transformation. The overall results indicate a critical disjunction between cell senescence in vitro and aging in vivo. By contrast, cell culture has been useful in showing a need for telomere capping in maintaining cell stability and viability. It may also provide information about the biochemical mechanism of lipofuscin production.
