Wiki says human organism consists on 220-230 cell types.

 

Is there any database or online reference, which contains a "genealogy tree" of these types and statistics?

 

I.e. so it is said about each cell type from which one it origins and which one produces when maturing?

 

Partially this information is in wiki, for example it is said there, that embryoblast derives from blastocyst and gives rise to epiblasts and hypoblasts. Unfortunately, this information is highly incomplete in Wiki. For example, I can't track genesis to neuroblasts.

 

Besides tree I am interested in cell statistics, for example, how many cells of the type body contains at which life stages, how fast cells divide, how long do they live, what is mutation rate in them and etc.

 

Is this information secret or paid?
