Brain cells of the cerebral cortex (the grey matter) are with you from birth.
Brain cells of the visual cortex (the array of cells in the front of the brain used for vision) are with you from birth.
Brain cells of the cerebellum (the structures at the base of the brain) are slightly younger than you are.
Intercostal muscle cells are about 15.1 years old.
Gut lining cells are about 5 days old.
Gut cells other than the lining are about 15.9 years old.
Skin cells are about 14 days old.
Red blood cells are about 120 days old.
