Abstract:ScopeAcute alcoholic liver injury (AALI), a global health concern, is exacerbated by excessive episodic drinking. L‐theanine (LTA), a compound found in tea leaves, mitigates the AALI‐induced liver oxidative stress and inflammation. However, its relationship with alcohol metabolism and its liver‐protective mechanism remains unexplored.Methods and resultsThis study investigates the protective mechanisms of LTA against AALI in mice. The results demonstrate that LTA mitigates liver tissue damage and reduces the se… Show more
