Coffee compounds activate cellular anti-aging receptor, Texas A&M researchers find
Texas A&M scientists discovered coffee compounds activate a cellular receptor called NR4A1 that protects against stress and inflammation. The receptor, tied to aging and disease, responded most strongly to plant-based compounds like caffeic acid, not caffeine. When researchers removed NR4A1 from cells, coffee’s protective effects disappeared entirely. Decaffeinated coffee may offer similar benefits since protective […]
