Zeng, Shi, Han, Hu, Li, Wei et al. present a metabolic atlas covering 15 hematopoietic cell types from young and aged mice. By screening metabolites that are depleted with age, they identify that uridine treatment can restore function in aged hematopoietic stem cells.

Through metabolic screening, we identified uridine as a potential regulator to rejuvenate aged HSPCs.

    Interestingly (from Wikipedia):

    …plasma uridine levels rose 1.8-fold 30 minutes after beer ingestion, suggesting, at the very least, conflicting data. On the other hand, ethanol on its own (which is present in beer) increases uridine levels, which may explain the raise of uridine levels in the study by Yamamoto et al.

    beer good?
