ABSTRACT: The limited proliferative potential of the cultured human diploid fibroblast is now well established. A number of biological correlates suggest that this culture system is a model for the study of aging at the cellular level. The mechanism(s) that causes the loss of proliferative activity is unknown; the results of some recent studies indicate that specific genes may play a pivotal role in cellular aging in vitro. The extent to which changes in proliferative functions are causally related to aging in vivo is currently under investigation. KEY WORDS: diploid fibroblast, cellular aging, cell cycle, cell fusion.
