Selenium 0 (Se0) is a powerful anti-proliferative agent in cancer research. We investigated the impact of sub-toxic concentrations of Se0 functionalized nanoparticles (SeNPs) on prostate cancer PC-3 cells and determined their intracellular localization and fate. An in-depth characterization of unctionalized selenium nanoparticles composition is pro...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of the combination of selenium and Bacillus subtilis (Se-BS) on the quality and flavor of meat and slaughter performance of broilers. A total of 240 one-day-old Arbor Acres broilers were randomly allotted to four treatments of a basal diet supplemented with no selenium (control), sodium selenite (SS), BS,...

Objective The relationship between serum selenium levels and papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), especially the pathological features, still remains controversial. We conducted this study to investigate the relationship between serum selenium levels and PTC in a Chinese population. Methods Cross-sectional data of 284 patients with PTC were collected fr...

Selenoprotein I (SELENOI) has been demonstrated to be an ethanolamine phosphotransferase (EPT) characterized by a nonselenoenzymatic domain and to be involved in the main synthetic branch of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore, defects of SELENOI may affect the health status through the multiple functions of PE. On...

The Zn anode in rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries suffers from hydrogen gas evolution and dendrite growth, which are critical issues that make the battery impractical. Here, the Zn anode performance is greatly improved by coating an amorphous selenium overlayer with a simple chemical bath reaction process. The reduction of SeO32- ions by the Zn...

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element that plays a vital role in various physiological functions of the human body, despite its small proportion. Due to the inability of the human body to synthesize selenium, there has been increasing concern regarding its nutritional value and adequate intake as a micronutrient. The efficiency of selenium ab...

Introduction There is spatial variability of selenium (Se) in soil and crops in Ethiopia. We assessed the Se content of food items, breast milk, and urine among infants in Ethiopia from two areas with contrasting Se concentrations in soils. Methods Dietary Se intakes among children (6–23 months) were evaluated using a weighed food record on two non...

Background and Objectives: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global public health issue with rising incidence linked to substantial morbidity and mortality. Selenium, an antioxidant trace element, has been linked to low serum levels in end-stage renal disease. Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS), a sleep disorder, is prevalent in CKD patients and significa...

Deficiency of the essential trace element selenium is common in kidney transplant recipients (KTR), potentially hampering antioxidant and anti-inflammatory defence. Whether this impacts the long-term outcomes of KTR remains unknown. We investigated the association of urinary selenium excretion, a biomarker of selenium intake, with all-cause mortali...

Introduction Poor food intake is common among elderly living in nursing homes, leading to micronutrient deficiency (MD). There are no recommendations for the management of MD in malnourished older adults. Methods We conducted a single arm, open-label, multicenter interventional study in institutionalized malnourished older adults to describe the ef...
