The Role and Mechanism of Essential Selenoproteins for Homeostasis

Abstract: Selenium (Se) is one of the essential trace elements that plays a biological role in the body, mainly in the form of selenoproteins. Selenoproteins can be involved in the regulation of oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, antioxidant defense, immune and inflammatory responses and other biological processes, including antioxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, the regulation of immune response and other functions. Over-loading or lack of Se causes certain damage to the body. Se deficiency c… Show more

“…Selenium even reduces levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and cyclooxygenase-2 produced by macrophages in response to endotoxins and down-regulates the expression of adhesion molecules. In addition, it also contributes to the metabolism of arachidonic acid and eicosanes ( 42 ).…”

“…Most of the activities of selenium in organisms are attributed to the currently known 25 selenoproteins that contain selenocysteine as the 21st proteogenic amino acid. They have many functions in their capacity as antioxidants, in redox signaling, in the metabolism of thyroid hormone and the liberation of iodide, in protein folding and in selenium transport and storage, while some of the functions are as yet unknown [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ].…”

“…The main derives from inorganic selenite and selenate and is an active pool for selenoprotein synthesis. The second is the release of selenoamino acids, in particular selenomethionine, from their protein structures during protein turnover [ 9 , 13 , 14 ]. Selenocysteine is highly reactive in redox reactions and maintained at appropriate levels, whereas the less reactive selenomethionine is metabolized as the essential sulfur analog methionine.…”

“…Selenium (Se) functions mainly through Se-dependent proteins. Glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) is the rst identi ed selenoprotein and belongs to one of two major antioxidant enzymes families [1][2][3][4] . Se was taken as an essential trace element for humans and animals due to its antioxidant and anti-in ammatory properties [5] .…”
