L-theanine, a non-protein amino acid naturally occurring in tea leaves, is recognized for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. Despite known benefits, the mechanisms by which L-theanine influences lifespan extension remain poorly understood. This study investigated effects of on Caenorhabditis elegans explored underlying mechanisms. Our findings indicate that significantly diminishes accumulation advanced glycation end products (AGEs), are biomarkers closely linked to aging age-related diseases. Through an AGE-level analysis, we observed when administered during early adulthood, notably extended under both normal high-glucose-induced stress conditions. enhanced typical conditions provided protective against stress. A further analysis demonstrated extends modulating DAF-2/DAF-16 insulin-like signaling pathway reducing (AGEs). In summary, this identified as potential anti-aging intervention AGE regulating pathways. These provide new insights developing strategies lay groundwork research benefits mammals. Future studies could explore molecular mechanisms, test mammalian models, assess long-term side effects.
