Anthocyanins from bilberry () are one of the most abundant sources of polyphenols and are widely used in the food, medicine and cosmetics industries due to their antioxidation properties, but few studies have investigated their antiaging properties. Based on our previous examination, the effect of anthocyanin extracts from bilberry (BANCs) on several characteristics of natural and UV-treated male , including their lifespan, fecundity, and antioxidant capacity, was studied, and the related mechanisms were preliminary explored. The results indicated that BANCs can effectively prolong the average and maximum lifespan and improve the reproductive capacity and antioxidant capacity of natural and UV-treated flies. In particular, BANCs significantly changed the growth cycle, sex ratio and content of ROS in the fat bodies of the offspring and decreased the expression levels of antioxidant- and autophagy-related genes in UV-treated flies. Collectively, the results demonstrate that BANC supplementation in the medium effectively alleviated the aging process, and this effect was not directly correlated with the antioxidant and autophagy signaling pathways in the body of .
