Human Body Cells

In the human body what are the only cells that never regrow?

i think its brain cells, but I could stand corrected

The answer you want is brain cells.

However, there is some evidence for cell regeneration in the brain - there is a New Scientist article about it at http://www.newscienti...-in-adult-humans.html

Sorry Scotman, but tooth enamel is not made of cells.

No cell ever regrows. Once it is dead it is dead forever. All new cells are formed by the division of a living cell.

Some parts of the brain at least have cells that regrow in the sense that damage is repaired by regeneration of the existing cells. Google for more details if interested.
