Controlled Coffee Intake Enhances Erythrocyte Deformability, Na,K-ATPase Activity, and GSH/GSSG Ratio in Healthy Young Adults by Dominika Radosinska, Tomas Jasenovec, Alzbeta Golianova, Ivan Szadvari, Rastislav Vazan, Ivona Kovacicova, Denisa Snurikova, Norbert Vrbjar, Jana Radosinska

“…Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that controlled coffee intake in healthy young adults can positively influence various indices of erythrocyte functional status. Although the observed statistically significant changes were modest, the findings consistently indicate a positive modulation of erythrocyte properties—cell deformability, oxidative resilience, and active membrane transport of cations—following coffee consumption.…”

TERT PfeRNA regulates telomere length during cellular senescence of normal human bronchial epithelial cells by Suguru Yamauchi, Kaitlyn Ecoff, Andrei Gurau, Kristen P. Rodgers, Malcolm V. Brock, Yuping Mei

“…Although telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) is central to telomere maintenance, the discrepancy between TERT level and telomere length highlights the unidentified molecules that regulate TERT’s functional activities. Here, we identify novel TERT-associated protein functional effector sncRNAs (TpfeRNAs) that modulate telomerase activity and telomere length during cellular senescence of normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells. …”
