Evidence for interactive effects of chromium and selenium on the appearance of mammary tumors was obtained by exposing female
virgin C3H mice infected with the murine mammary tumorvirus (MMTV) to subtoxic levels of Cr [as Cr(III) nitrate] and Se (as sodium
selenite) in the supply water. Cr counteracted the inhibitory effect of Se on tumor development in a dose-dependent manner,
shortened the tumor latency period, and accelerated tumor growth rates. Exposure to Cr also altered the levels of Se in the
liver and kidneys of the mice, indicating that Cr interacts with Se and affects its organ distribution. Chromium must be added
to the list of Se-antagonistic elements that weaken or abolish the antitumorigenic effects of Se. These findings are relevant
to human cancer as previous studies revealed the age-corrected mortalities from breast and other major forms of cancer in
different countries to be inversely correlated with the dietary Se intakes, and directly correlated with the estimated intakes
of Cr and of other Se-antagonistic elements. The presence of these elements in foods must be taken into account when estimating
the optimal dose of supplemental Se for cancer risk reduction. 相似文献

Present study was carried out with the objective of investigating the role of green synthesized nano Se (GNS) in growth performance, digestibility of minerals, immunity, stress alleviation, antioxidant status, and body Se content of broiler chicken raised under hot and humid environment with respect to market nano Se (MNS) and inorganic Se. The experimental design was 3 × 3 factorial, in which three levels (0.15, 0.20, and 0.25 ppm) and three sources (inorganic, green nano, and market nano) of Se resulted in nine treatments viz. IS-0.15, GNS-0.15, MNS-0.15, IZ-0.20, GNS-0.20, MNS-0.20, IS-0.25, GNS-0.25, and MNS-0.25 (IS: inorganic Se, GNS: green nano Se, MNS: market nano Se). A total of 432 broiler chicken were divided among nine treatments with six replicates of birds per treatment (8 birds/replicate). Results of present study revealed significantly better growth performance of birds supplemented with 0.25 ppm nano Se. The supplementation of 0.25 ppm nano Se improved the immune response and lymphoid organ development of birds. Significantly higher Se and nitrogen digestibility coefficients, serum antioxidant activity and decline of Heterophil: Lymphocyte ratio and expression of HSP70 gene were observed in birds supplemented with 0.25 ppm Se and nano source of Se compared to inorganic Se. Significantly higher Se concentration in liver and breast muscle and higher serum Se concentration were observed in birds fed 0.25 ppm nano Se. The liver Se concentration was much higher than that of breast muscle. However, the nano Se synthesized by green method in this study did not differ significantly from the chemically synthesized nano Se. It was concluded that 0.25 ppm Se and nano form of Se are superior to lower levels and inorganic form of Se, respectively, in improving the immunity, growth, antioxidant status, and in stress alleviation of broiler chicken. However, GNS is equally efficient as chemically synthesized MNS. 相似文献

Selenium added to the diet significantly lowers the incidence of spontaneous mammary adenocarcinoma in female inbred C3H/St mice infected with the Bittner Milk Factor. Lead, 5 ppm, added to the drinking water in the form of the acetate, diminishes the uptake of selenium and reduces its anticarcinogenic effects, causing mammary tumors to appear with the same high incidence as in Se-unsupplemented controls. At higher lead concentrations in the drinking water (25 ppm), the overall tumor incidence is lowered, but tumor growth is significantly accelerated and the survival of tumor-bearing mice is shortened. Under the conditions of administration chosen, lead acts as a selenium antagonist and lowers the concentrations of selenium in liver, kidney, and spleen. The deposition of selenium, copper, and arsenic in bone is increased as compared to lead-unexposed controls. 相似文献

Inbred female C3H/St mice exhibit the normal incidence of spontaneous mammary adenocarcinoma of 80--100% if they are maintained on a standard commercial laboratory diet containing 0.15 ppm of selenium with meat and dried skimmed milk as major sources of protein. The tumor incidence drops to 42% if animals of the same strain are kept on a diet containing 0.45 ppm of selenium, with fishmeal as the main source of protein. The tumor incidence declines further to 25, 19 and 10% if the animals in addition receive 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 ppm of selenium in the drinking water. Selenium supplementation at these levels has no noticable adverse effects on weight-grains and survival of the mice. Selenium supplmented groups of animals also remained tumor-free for longer periods than the unsupplemented controls. The results of this study indicate that a diet rich in seafoods and cereals provides more selenium and may in turn lower the probability of cancer development. Reference is made to the average human diet in the U.S.A., which only contains 0.07--0.15 ppm of selenium due to the comparatively low consumption of cereals and seafoods. An equivalent mouse diet would not have any cancer-protecting effect in the C3H/St mice of our study. Australian workers have reported significantly lower tumor incidence in a different strain of C3H mice if it was kept in Australia rather than in the U.S.A. We have found that the Australian feed contained three times more selenium than that employed in the U.S.A. and propose that this difference in selenium content was primarily responsible for these previous observations. 相似文献

Breast cancer incidence in Nigerian women has significantly increased during the past three decades in parallel with the rapid
industrialization of that country. This suggested that the associated widespread contamination of the soil and of the water
supplies by lead (Pb) and other industrial metals was a major contributing cause. Because of its many domestic, industrial,
and automotive uses, Pb is of particular concern as it has been shown to promote the development of mammary tumors in murine
mammary tumor virus-infected female C3H mice at levels as low of 0.5 ppm Pb in the drinking water. Lead belongs to the group
of selenium-antagonistic elements that interact with selenium (Se), abolishing its anti-carcinogenic effect. Lead on chronic,
low-level exposure in addition also accelerates tumor growth rates. Higher levels of Pb were found in blood and head hair
samples of newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer, all with infiltrating ductal carcinoma, the most common form of breast
cancer in Nigeria, seen at Obafemi Awolowo University, than in cancer-free controls from the same area. Evidence for interactions
between Pb and Se was obtained from blood, hair, and tumor biopsy tissue analyses. Furthermore, the Pb levels in hair samples
of the patients were directly correlated with the volumes of their tumors, in accord with the tumor growth-promoting effects
of Pb. Conversely, Se levels in hair and blood were inversely correlated with the tumor volumes, consistent with the anti-proliferative
effects of Se. Several other elements, e.g., Cd, Hg, Cr, Sn, and As, were detected in the scalp hair of the patients and the
controls, although at significantly lower levels than those of Pb. However, correlation calculations revealed them also to
interact with Se, suggesting that only a fraction of the Se in organs and tissues is actually present in bioactive forms.
In metal-exposed subjects, a state of latent Se deficiency may exist, resulting in depressed immune functions and increased
cancer susceptibility. Evidence is presented to show that Pb and other metals also interact with iodine, another vitally important
essential trace element believed to protect against breast cancer development. Public health programs aiming at lowering the
breast cancer risk of Nigerian women thus will have to include effective measures to protect the population from exposures
to Pb and other industrial metals that are presently contaminating the environment and the water supplies. 相似文献

Previous studies demonstrated that the age-corrected breast cancer mortalities in different countries are inversely correlated with the per-capita dietary intakes of selenium and directly with the estimated intakes of cadmium, zinc, and chromium, suggesting that the anticarcinogenic properties of selenium are counteracted by these elements. The tumor-preventative effects of selenium and the converse effects zinc and chromium have already been confirmed experimentally in studies with female inbred C3H mice carrying murine mammary tumor virus (MMTV). Using the same model of human breast cancer, it is now demonstrated that cadmium abolishes the cancer-protecting effects of selenium. In addition, cadmium was also found to interact with zinc, copper, and chromium. At 1.4 ppm in the drinking water, cadmium caused a significant depletion of zinc in vital organs such as the liver, which is held responsible for a delay of the appearance of the mammary tumors by 4 months and their slower growth rates relative to the Cd-unexposed controls. The results of the present study are relevant to human breast cancer prevention as selenium counteracts the effects of cadmium. 相似文献

The tumor microenvironment is complex and creates an immunosuppressive network to tolerize tumor-specific immune responses;
however, little information is available regarding the response against non-tumor antigens in tumor-bearing individuals. The
goal of the present study was to evaluate if tumor burden could influence a CD4+ T cell response against a soluble protein, not expressed by the tumor, in the absence of in vitro stimulation. Using an experimental
system in which we can compare CD4+ T cell responses to the Ea antigen when it is either expressed by B16F10 melanoma cells (B16EaRFP cells) or is an exogenous,
non-tumor antigen (soluble EaRFP protein), in immunizations of B16F10 tumor-bearing mice, we observed that the tumor can modulate
the CD4+ T cell-specific response to the antigen when it is expressed by the tumor cells. TEa cells proliferated poorly and produced
less IFN-γ in mice bearing B16F10 melanoma expressing Ea peptide, and tumor growth was impervious to this response. However,
in mice bearing 7 days B16F10 tumors, not expressing the Ea antigen, priming of TEa cells was similar to that observed in
tumor-free mice, based on the total number of cells recovered and proliferation assessed by CFSE dilution after EaRFP immunization.
We also investigated if tumor burden could influence recall responses of already differentiated effector cells. We immunized
mice with EaRFP antigen and after a few days injected B16F10 cells. After 10 days of tumor growth, we challenged the mice
with the non-tumor antigen. We found that the number of TEa cells producing IFN-γ in tumor-bearing mice was not different
compared to tumor-free mice. No differences in antigen presentation, assessed by YAe antibody staining, were verified in the
draining lymph node of these two groups. Collectively, our data indicate that tumor burden does not affect immune responses
to non-tumor antigens. These results have important implications in the design of anti-cancer therapy. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) is an essential nutritional factor with a chemopreventive potential. This study examined the ability of C57BL/6J mice, maintained for 8 weeks on Se-deficient (0.02 ppm Se), normal (0.20 ppm Se), or Se-supplemented (2.00 ppm Se) Torula yeast-based diets, to generate cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTL) and to destroy tumor cells. CTL were generated in vivo by intraperitoneal immunization with P815 cells and in vitro by allogeneic stimulation of cells from animals maintained on a normal diet in media supplemented with 1 x 10(-9) to 1 x 10(-6) M Se (as selenite). Lymphocytes from animals maintained on the Se-supplemented diet had a greater ability to destroy tumor cells than lymphocytes from animals maintained on the normal diet, whereas Se deficiency reduced the cytotoxicity. The effects on cytotoxicity were accompanied by parallel changes in the levels of lymphotoxin produced. The greatest enhancement of tumor cytodestruction occurred with supplementation of 1 x 10(-7) M Se, whereas with 1 x 10(-6) M there was inhibition of the cytotoxic responses. The stimulatory effect of Se occurred during the phase of CTL generation rather than during the lytic phase of cytotoxicity. These results indicated that Se supplementation enhances CTL generation and the ability of a host to destroy malignant cells, whereas Se deficiency has the opposite effect. 相似文献

The development of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-neutralizing antibodies in various strains of mice was measured by their ability to neutralize the focus-forming capacity of a Kirsten sarcoma virus (C3H MMTV) pseudotype containing the MMTV envelope glycoprotein gp52. C3H/HeN, but not GR/N and RIII, mammary tumor-bearing mice were found to develop neutralizing antibodies to this pseudotype. In addition, non-tumor-bearing C3H/HeN, GR/N, RIII, NIH Swiss, C57BL/6, and BALB/c mice and 13 feral mice were also negative for neutralizing antibodies. The neutralization was immunoglobulin G mediated, and the antibodies of C3H/HeN mammary tumor-bearing mice were type specific and capable of distinguishing C3H and GR/N MMTVs from RIII and C3H/HeNf MMTVs. Precipitating antibodies were detected in sera from RIII and GR/N tumor-bearing mice, GR/N non-tumor-bearing mice, and six of the feral mice, although these same sera did not neutralize the Kirsten sarcoma virus (C3H MMTV) pseudotype. The results of this study and of a previous study demonstrate that C3H/HeN mammary tumor-bearing mice develop three functionally distinct antibody populations: (i) group-specific virus-precipitating antibodies; (ii) type-specific virus-neutralizing antibodies; and (iii) type-specific cytotoxic antibodies. 相似文献

The influence of cyclophosphamide on antitumor immunity in mice bearing late-stage tumors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Spleen cells from mice bearing late-stage methylcholanthrene-induced tumor did not show any tumor activity when mixed with tumor cells in Winn's assay. Treatment of these mice with cyclophosphamide (CY) induced a tumor-inhibitory activity in spleen, occurring on day 7 after treatment, reaching its maximum on day 11 and disappearing by day 21. This antitumor activity could not be induced in control, tumor-free or T-deficient tumor-bearing mice. CY-induced tumor-inhibitory activity was immunologically specific, and mediated by Thy-1+, L3T4–, Ly-2+ cells. Contrary to spleen cells from untreated tumor-bearing mice, spleen cells from CY-treated tumor-bearing mice did not suppress the antitumor activity of immune spleen cells in Winn's assay. However, in contrast to immune spleen cells, CY-induced tumor-inhibitory cells did not manifest antitumor activity when transferred systemically (i. v.) into T-cell-deficient tumor-bearing mice. Even more, spleen cells from CY-pretreated mice, harvested 7–15 days after the drug administration, partially suppressed the antitumor activity of concomitantly transferred spleen cells from specifically immune mice. Nevertheless, CY-pretreated mice manifested concomitant immunity, i.e. these mice exhibited higher resistance to a second inoculum of the same tumor than did nontreated mice or even mice with excised primary tumor. 相似文献

Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seedlings were subjected to varying selenium levels (1, 2, 4, and 6 ppm) in a hydroponic culture. The germination reached
100% in 48 h in all Se levels except 6 ppm, where it took 72 h. The root and shoot growth was stimulated at 1 and 2 ppm Se
levels that was commensurate with increase in chlorophyll content, leaf water content, and cellular respiration. At 4 and
6 ppm Se levels, the growth was inhibited appreciably, which was associated with increase in stress injury measured as damage
to membranes and decrease in cellular respiration, chlorophyll, and leaf water content. The oxidative injury as elevation
of lipid peroxidation was larger compared to hydrogen peroxide accompanied by reduced levels of enzymatic (superoxide dismutase,
catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, and glutathione reductase) and non-enzymatic (ascorbic acid and glutathione) antioxidants.
Proline content was significantly higher at 1 and 2 ppm Se but diminished considerably at 4 and 6 ppm levels concomitant with
the reduced growth. Exogenous application of proline (50 μM) resulted in substantiation of its endogenous levels that antagonised
the toxic effects of Se by improving the growth of seedlings. The stress injury was reduced significantly with simultaneous
increase in enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. Especially the components of ascorbate–glutathione cycle showed larger
stimulation with proline application. The role of proline in mitigating the toxic effects of Se is discussed. 相似文献

In attempts to simulate the effects of diet on human breast cancer development groups of female C3H mice infected with mammary tumor virus (MMTV-) were maintained on diets formulated to resemble the typical American, Bulgarian, and Japanese human diets. The incidence of mammary tumors was the highest (84%) in group of mice receiving the simulated meat- and fat-rich American diet, which was also low in selenium (Se content: 0.15 ppm). The appearance of mammary tumors was delayed in the mice maintained on the simulated Bulgarian diet, and the final tumor incidence (27%) paralleled the correspondingly lower Bulgarian breast cancer incidence. The simulated Bulgarian diet contained more Se (0.25 ppm), and was lower in fat, meat, and sugar and higher in complex carbohydrates (cereals) than the simulated American diet. In the mice fed the simulated Japanese diet, the appearance of mammary tumors was also delayed, and the tumor incidence was diminished to 47%. In this diet, fish meal was a major source of Se, which is known to have low bioavailability. Additional supplementation of the Japanese-type diet with bioavailable Se (1 ppm) lowered the tumor incidence to 10%. Based on these studies, recommendations are made for breast cancer risk reduction by dietary means. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) is a trace metalloid essential for life, but its nutritional and physiological roles during the aging process remain elusive. While telomere attrition contributes to replicative senescence mainly through persistent DNA damage response, such an aging process is mitigated in mice with inherently long telomeres. Here, weanling third generation telomerase RNA component knockout mice carrying short telomeres were fed a Se‐deficient basal diet or the diet supplemented with 0.15 ppm Se as sodium selenate to be nutritionally sufficient throughout their life. Dietary Se deprivation delayed wound healing and accelerated incidence of osteoporosis, gray hair, alopecia, and cataract, but surprisingly promoted longevity. Plasma microRNA profiling revealed a circulating signature of Se deprivation, and subsequent ontological analyses predicted dominant changes in metabolism. Consistent with this observation, dietary Se deprivation accelerated age‐dependent declines in glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and glucose‐stimulated insulin production in the mice. Moreover, DNA damage and senescence responses were enhanced and Pdx1 and MafA mRNA expression were reduced in pancreas of the Se‐deficient mice. Altogether, these results suggest a novel model of aging with conceptual advances, whereby Se at low levels may be considered a hormetic chemical and decouple healthspan and longevity. 相似文献

Selenium and immune cell functions. I. Effect on lymphocyte proliferation and production of interleukin 1 and interleukin 2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
L Kiremidjian-Schumacher M Roy H I Wishe M W Cohen G Stotzky 《Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine. Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine (New York, N.Y.)》1990,193(2):136-142
The dietary intake of selenium (Se) has been shown to influence the development and expression of various biologic processes. This study examined the immunologic competence of lymphocytes from C57BL/6J mice maintained for 8 weeks on Se-deficient (0.02 ppm Se), normal (0.20 ppm Se, as sodium selenite), or Se-supplemented (2.00 ppm Se) Torula yeast-based diets. The ability of the cells to recognize alloantigens, to proliferate in response to stimuli, and to produce interleukin 2 (IL-2) was determined. Se deficiency significantly inhibited the ability of the lymphocytes to proliferate in response to allogeneic stimulation in the mixed lymphocyte reaction or to mitogen stimulation by phytohemagglutinin, whereas Se supplementation significantly enhanced both responses. In contrast, the amounts of IL-2 and interleukin 1 (IL-1) produced by lymphocytes and macrophages, respectively, removed from Se-deficient or Se-supplemented animals did not differ significantly from the amounts of IL-2 and IL-1 produced by cells removed from animals maintained on the control diet. These results suggest that the mechanism(s) responsible for the observed effects of Se on lymphocyte proliferation are independent of the levels of IL-2 or IL-1. 相似文献

Using a mouse neuroblastoma cell line, we have demonstrated that vaccination of tumor-free mice with a cell-based vaccine leads to productive immunity and resistance to tumor challenge, while vaccination of tumor-bearing mice does not. The T cell immunity induced by this vaccine, as measured by in vitro assays, is amplified by the depletion of Treg. Our goal is to understand this barrier to the development of protective cellular immunity. mRNA microarray analyses of CD8+ T cells from naïve or tumor-bearing mice undergoing vaccination were carried out with or without administering anti-CD25 antibody. Gene-expression pathway analysis revealed the presence of CD8+ T cells expressing stem cell-associated genes early after induction of productive anti-tumor immunity in tumor-free mice, prior to any phenotypic changes, but not in tumor-bearing mice. These data demonstrate that early after the induction of productive immune response, cells within the CD8+ T cell compartment adopt a stem cell-related genetic phenotype that correlates with increased anti-tumor function. 相似文献

ProjectBeside its useful functions at very low concentrations, selenium including supplementary Se sources pose a potential toxicological risk. The toxicity of selenium species was tested in HaCaT cell culture and related nephrotoxicity in mice.ProcedureThe apoptotic shrinkage and necrotic expansion of cells were measured by time-lapse image microscopy. Acute nephrotoxicity was estimated upon administration of various selenium species to mice for two weeks. To confirm or to refute the accumulation of Se in the kidney and its potential chronic effect, Se concentration in kidney tissue and histopathlology were tested.ResultsThe comparison of selenium species showed that organic lactomicroSe did not affect cell growth at 5 ppm, but inorganic nanoSe severely hampered it at lower concentration (1 ppm). The in vivo Se treatment (0.5, 5, 50 ppm, corresponding to 4, 40 and 400 μg/kg) was misleading as it did neither affect the outward appearance nor the weight of the kidney. Se accumulation was observed after selenate, selenite, SelPlex, selenite and nanoSe administration, while lactomicroSe caused no traceable accumulation. In vivo, ex vivo and in vitro experiments reflected this order of selenium toxicity: selenate > selenite > SelPlex = nanoSe > lactomicroSe.ConclusionWithin the tested species lactomicroSe was the only non-nephrotoxic selenium source recommended for nutritional Se supplementation. 相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate whether the combined treatment with Se and Zn offers more beneficial effects
than that provided by either of them alone in reversing Cd-induced oxidative stress in the kidney of rat. For this purpose,
30 adult male Wistar albino rats, equally divided into control and four treated groups, received either 200 ppm Cd (as CdCl2), 200 ppm Cd + 500 ppm Zn (as ZnCl2), 200 ppm Cd + 0.1 ppm Se (as Na2SeO3), or 200 ppm Cd + 500 ppm Zn + 0.1 ppm Se in their drinking water for 35 days. The results showed that Cd treatment decreased
significantly the catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities, whereas the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity
and the renal levels of lipid peroxidation (as malondialdehyde, MDA) were increased compared to control rats. The treatment
of Cd-exposed rats with Se alone had no significant effect on the Cd-induced increase in the MDA concentrations but increased
significantly the CAT activities and reversed Cd-induced increase in SOD activity. It also partially prevented Cd-induced
decrease in GSH-Px activity. The treatment of Cd-exposed animals with Zn alone increased significantly the CAT activity and
partially protected against Cd-induced increase in the MDA concentrations, whereas it had no significant effect on the Cd-induced
increase in SOD activity and decrease in GSH-Px activity. The combined treatment of Cd-exposed animals with Se and Zn was
more effective than that with either of them alone in reversing Cd-induced decrease in CAT and GSH-Px activities and Cd-induced
increase in MDA concentrations. Results demonstrated beneficial effects of combined Se and Zn treatment in Cd-induced oxidative
stress in kidney and suggest that Se and Zn can have a synergistic role against Cd toxicity.

Sera from C3H mammary tumor-bearing mice contain cytotoxic antibodies for mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV)-producing cells, based on (51)Cr release in a complement-dependent serum cytotoxicity assay. The cytotoxic antibodies could be absorbed by purified C3H MMTV gp52 and C3H MMTV-infected cat cells (C3H [MMTV] CrFK) containing cell surface MMTV gp52. However, purified MMTV p27 and uninfected CrFK cat cells were negative. Absorption of the sera with GR (MMTV) CrFK cells also removed all of the cytotoxicity, whereas absorption with RIII (MMTV) CrFK cells was negative, even though all three infected cat cells contained equivalent amounts of gp52. The same C3H cytotoxic sera also neutralized the focus-forming capacity of a C3H MMTV pseudotype of Kirsten sarcoma virus containing MMTV gp52. In contrast, sera from mammary tumor-bearing GR and RIII mice did not neutralize the pseudotype. Furthermore, neutralization could be achieved only by anti-gp52 but not by anti-gp36, -p27, -p14, or -p10 C3H MMTV sera. The gp52's of C3H, GR, and RIII MMTV could also be distinguished by using a type-specific competition radioimmunoassay employing (125)I-gp52 of C3H MMTV and a hyperimmune rabbit anti-C3H MMTV serum. To demonstrate these differences directly, we studied the primary structure of gp52 on the surface of the C3H, GR, and RIII (MMTV) CrFK cells. Two-dimensional tryptic peptide maps of the cell surface lactoper-oxidase-catalyzed iodinated gp52's revealed a greater number of peptides common to the gp52's of C3H and GR MMTVs than to RIII MMTV gp52. These results demonstrate that gp52 is a major target antigen for both cytotoxic and neutralizing antibodies, that the cell surface and virion-associated gp52's of C3H, GR, and RIII MMTV contain both group- and type-specific determinants, and that C3H and GR MMTV gp52's are antigenically more related to each other than to RIII MMTV gp52. Furthermore, C3H mammary tumor-bearing mice develop type-specific antibodies capable of recognizing unique gp52 determinants and, therefore, are able to distinguish the gp52 of C3H MMTV from the gp52's of GR and RIII MMTV. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) is known to regulate tumorigenesis and immunity at the nutritional and supranutritional levels. Because the
immune system provides critical defenses against cancer and the athymic, immune-deficient NU/J nude mice are known to gradually
develop CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, we investigated whether B and T cell maturation could be modulated by dietary Se and by tumorigenesis in nude mice.
Fifteen homozygous nude mice were fed a Se-deficient, Torula yeast basal diet alone (Se−) or supplemented with 0.15 (Se+)
or 1.0 (Se++) mg Se/kg (as Na2SeO4) for 6 months, followed by a 7-week time course of PC-3 prostate cancer cell xenograft (2 × 106 cells/site, 2 sites/mouse). Here, we show that peripheral B cell levels decreased in nude mice fed the Se − or Se++ diet
and the CD4+ T cell levels increased in mice fed the Se++ diet. During the PC-3 cell tumorigenesis, dietary Se status did not affect peripheral
CD4+ or CD8+ T cells in nude mice whereas mice fed with the Se++ diet appeared to exhibit greater peripheral CD25+CD4+ T cells on day 9. Dietary Se status did not affect spleen weight in nude mice 7 weeks after the xenograft. Spleen weight
was associated with frequency of peripheral CD4+, but not CD8+ T cells. Taken together, dietary Se at the nutritional and supranutritional levels regulates peripheral B and T cells in
adult nude mice before and after xenograft with PC-3 prostate cancer cells. 相似文献
