Only CS genes were available for co-option and utilization for xanthine alkaloid biosynthesis in yerba mate whereas coffee only had xanthine methyltransferase (XMT) genes. Both CS- and XMT-type caffeine biosynthetic enzymes were present in the ancestor of core eudicots but numerous apparent losses of one or the other or both has occurred during lineage diversification. Gene loss is represented by vertical bar on relevant branches of the cladogram.

Using patient data from several banks of genomics data, researchers at UC San Diego were able to make similar predictions of aging using either mutations or epigenetic modifications. Their results reveal a common link between two separate but equally prominent theories of aging.

HGF nitration disrupts muscle homeostasis as an organism age. The new rat anti-HGF monoclonal antibody the research team developed, called 1H41C10, specially binds to the nitration sites of HGF and blocks nitration. The team hopes that this can eventually lead to therapies that can treat age-related muscle atrophy and impaired muscle regeneration.
