除了下面说的pathway外, 咖啡因可能也抑制mTOR pathway (in vitro),
另外印象中记得有些酵素需要咖啡因当cofactor.

NEUROBEHAVIOR:
Coffee, Caffeine, and DARPP-32
Caffeine is a well-known psychostimulant that increases motor activity by
inhibiting the action of the neuromodulator adenosine. By binding to
adenosine receptors (A1 and A2A) present in inhibitory neurons in the brain,
caffeine prevents activated A2A receptors from initiating a signaling pathway
that triggers cAMP production and protein kinase A (PKA) activation. Lindskog
et al. report the behavioral effects of caffeine are no longer observed in
mice lacking the cytosolic protein DARPP-32. This is because caffeine
increases the phosphorylation of DARPP-32 on a specific threonine residue. By
blocking the cAMP-PKA pathway, caffeine decreases the action of the protein
phosphatase 2A on DARPP-32. Phosphorylated DARPP-32 can then further inhibit
PKA activity, amplifying the shutdown of the cAMP-PKA pathway. The effect
likely includes a lower level of phosphorylated target proteins of PKA that
regulate nerve activity.
