Hierarchical tissue organization as a general mechanism to limit the accumulation of somatic mutations
To limit the accumulation of somatic mutations, renewing tissues must minimize the number of times each cell divides during differentiation. Here, the authors analytically derive the lower limit of lifetime divisional load of a tissue, show that hierarchically differentiating tissues can approach th...

description |
To limit the accumulation of somatic mutations, renewing tissues must minimize the number of times each cell divides during differentiation. Here, the authors analytically derive the lower limit of lifetime divisional load of a tissue, show that hierarchically differentiating tissues can approach this limit, and that this depends on uneven divisional rates across the hierarchy. |
