The letter by Bergmann and collaborators1 questions our comments2 regarding their work on 14C birth dating of human cardiomyocytes with aging. 3 Three points are made in an attempt to challenge the issues we have raised, which cast serious doubts on the validity of their data on myocyte turnover with physiological aging:(1) appropriateness of the myocardial samples examined;(2) specificity of the protocol used for the isolation of myocyte nuclei; and (3) correct interpretation of the 14C measurements.
