Biological effects of a nano red elemental selenium. 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
A novel selenium form, nano red elemental selenium (Nano-Se) was prepared by adding bovine serum albumin to the redox system of selenite and glutathione. Nano-Se has a 7-fold lower acute toxicity than sodium selenite in mice (LD(50) 113 and 15 mg Se/kg body weight respectively). In Se-deficient rat, both Nano-Se and selenite can increase tissue selenium and GPx activity. The biological activities of Nano-Se and selenite were compared in terms of cell proliferation, enzyme induction and protection against free racial-mediated damage in human hepatoma HepG2 cells. Nano-Se and selenite are similarly cell growth inhibited and stimulated synthesis of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) and thioredoxin reductase (TR). When HepG2 cells were co-treated with selenium and glutathione, Nano-Se showed less pro-oxidative effects than selenite, as measured by cell growth. These results demonstrate that Nano-Se has a similar bioavailability in the rat and antioxidant effects on cells. 相似文献

Comparison of short-term toxicity between Nano-Se and selenite in mice 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
We previously reported that, as compared with selenite, nano red elemental selenium (Nano-Se) had lower acute toxicity in mice and similar bioavailability in terms of up-regulating seleno-enzymes. The short-term toxicity of both selenite and Nano-Se in mice was further compared in this study. At an oral dose of 6 mg/kg bw per day administered for consecutive 12 days, selenite and Nano-Se completely and partially suppressed mice growth respectively. Abnormal liver function was more pronounced with selenite treatment than Nano-Se as indicated by the increase of both alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in serum. Selenite inhibited liver catalase and superoxide dismutase activities, whereas, Nano-Se did not affect these two antioxidant enzymes. Selenite increased the malondialdehyde content of liver, but Nano-Se decreased it. Both Se forms had similar effects on depletion of reduced glutathione and up-regulated glutathione peroxidase. Nano-Se was more potent than selenite in the induction of glutathione S-transferase. At oral doses of 2 or 4 mg/kg bw per day for consecutive 15 days, selenite was more active than Nano-Se in supressing growth, deleting reduced glutathione, and inhibiting superoxide dismutase activities. Taken together, these results indicate that over a short-term, a high-dose of selenite caused more pronounced oxidative stress, greater liver injury, and prominent retardation of growth as compared to Nano-Se. 相似文献

细菌还原氧化态硒产生红色单质硒的研究进展 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
硒是一种生命必需的微量元素,但高浓度时毒性较强且会造成环境污染。许多细菌可以将亚硒酸盐(SeO32-)或硒酸盐(SeO42-)等毒性较高的氧化态硒还原为毒性较小的红色单质硒(Se°),形成硒-蛋白复合物,它们对于获得最佳补硒方式和治理硒环境污染具有应用潜力。近年来,关于这一生物还原过程,人们进行了大量的研究,包括碳源、氧气、元素硫、谷胱甘肽以及一些氧化还原酶和膜转运蛋白等在内的多种物质都被发现可能影响或参与了细菌对硒的代谢。综述了细菌进行生物还原氧化态硒的影响因素及不同细菌产生红色单质硒机理的研究进展。 相似文献

Keshan disease is a cardiomyopathy restricted to the endemic areas of China and seen in residents having an extremely low
selenium (Se) status. Prophylactic administration of sodium selenite has been shown to decrease significantly the incidence
of acute and subacute cases. The aim of the study was to assess the relative bioavailability of selenite versus organic Se-yeast
in a Se-deficient area in China with a randomized double-blind double-dummy design.
Healthy children (n=30) between 14 and 16 yr of age were randomized into three equal groups receiving either 200 μg/d selenite Se or 200 μg/d
Se-yeast or placebo for 12 wk. Blood was drawn at baseline, 4, 8, and 12 wk and 4 wk postsupplementation. The plasma Se concentration
(mean ± SD) was 0.16±0.03 μmol/L at baseline. Selenite and Se-yeast supplementation increased plasma Se to plateau values,
1.0±0.2 and 1.3±0.2 μmol/L, respectively. In red cells, Se-yeast increased the selenium level sixfold and selenite threefold
compared to placebo. The relative bioavailability of Se-yeast versus selenite measured as glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) activity
was similar in plasma, red blood cells, and platelets. GSHPx activity reached maximal levels in plasma and platelets of 300%
and 200%, respectively, after 8 wk compared to the placebo group, but continued to increase in red cells for 16 wk.
Our study showed that although both forms of Se were equally effective in raising GSHPx activity, Se-yeast provided a longer
lasting body pool of Se. Se-yeast may be a better alternative to selenite in the prophylaxis of Keshan disease with respect
to building up of body stores. 相似文献

The form and distribution of selenium (Se) in proteins from selected tissues of the rat were studied by measuring 75Se radioactivity in animals provided for 5 months with [75Se]selenite as the main dietary source of Se. Equilibration of the animals to a constant specific activity of 75Se allowed the measurement of 75Se to be used as a specific elemental assay for Se. Skeletal muscle, liver and blood accounted for 73% of the whole-body Se and 95% of the total Se-dependent glutathione peroxidase activity. Over 80% of the whole-body Se was in protein in the form of the selenoamino acid, selenocysteine. All other forms of Se that were measured accounted for less than 3% of the whole-body Se. The Se in protein was distributed in seven subunit sizes and nine chromatographic forms. The Se in glutathione peroxidase accounted for one-third of the whole-body Se. These results show that the main use of dietary Se, as selenite, in rats is for the synthesis of selenocysteine-containing proteins. Furthermore, the presence of two-thirds of the whole-body Se in nonglutathione peroxidase, selenocysteine-containing proteins suggests that there may be other important mammalian selenoenzymes besides glutathione peroxidase. 相似文献

The bioavailability of selenium (Se) was determined in bacterial strains that reduce selenite to red elemental Se (Seo). A laboratory strain ofBacillus subtilis and a bacterial rod isolated from soil in the vicinity of the Kesterson Reservoir, San Joaquin Valley, CA, (Microbacterium arborescens) were cultured in the presence of 1 mM sodium selenite (Na2SeO3). After harvest, the washed, lyophilizedB. subtilis andM. arborescens samples contained 2.62 and 4.23% total Se, respectively, which was shown to consist, within error, entirely of Seo. These preparations were fed to chicks as supplements to a low-Se, vitamin E-free diet. Three experiments showed that the
Se in both bacteria had bioavailabilities of approx 2% that of selenite. A fourth experiment revealed that gray Seo had a bioavailability of 2% of selenite, but that the bioavailability of red Seo depended on the way it was prepared (by reduction of selenite). When glutathione was the reductant, bioavailability resembled
that of gray Seo and bacterial Se; when ascorbate was the reductant, bioavailability was twice that level (3–4%). These findings suggest that
aerobic bacteria such asB. subtilis andM. arborescens may be useful for the bioremediation of Se-contaminated sites, i.e., by converting selenite to a form of Se with very low
bioavailability. 相似文献

The subchronic toxicity of Nano-Se was compared with selenite and high-selenium protein in rats. Groups of Sprague-Dawley rats (12 males and 12 females per group) were fed diets containing Nano-Se, selenite and high-selenium protein at concentrations of 0, 2, 3, 4 and 5 ppm Se, respectively, for 13 weeks. Clinical observations were made and body weight and food consumption were recorded weekly. At the end of the study, the rats were subjected to a full necropsy, blood samples were collected for hematology and clinical chemistry determination. Histopathological examination was performed on selected tissues. At the two higher doses (4 and 5 ppm Se), significant abnormal changes were found in body weight, hematology, clinical chemistry, relative organ weights and histopathology parameters. However, the toxicity was more pronounced in the selenite and high-selenium protein groups than the Nano-Se group. At the dose of 3 ppm Se, significant growth inhibition and degeneration of liver cells were found in the selenite and high-selenium protein groups. No changes attributable to administration of Nano-Se at the dose of 3 ppm Se were found. Taken together, the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) of Nano-Se in male and female rats was considered to be 3 ppm Se, equivalent to 0.22 mg/kg bw/day for males and 0.33 mg/kg bw/day for females. On the other hand, the NOAELs of selenite and high-selenium protein in males and females were considered to be 2 ppm Se, equivalent to 0.14 mg/kg bw/day for males and 0.20 mg/kg bw/day for females. In addition, studies have shown that Nano-Se has a similar bioavailability in rat, and much less acute toxicity in mice compared with selenite. In conclusion, Nano-Se is less toxic than selenite and high-selenium protein in the 13-week rat study. 相似文献

The synthesis of glutathione peroxidase from [75Se]selenite was studied in slices and cell-free extracts from rat liver. The incorporation of [75Se]selenocysteine at the active site was detected by carboxymethylation and hydrolysis of partially purified glutathione peroxidase (glutathione:hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.9) in the presence of [3H]selenocysteine and subsequent amino acid analysis. The synthesis of glutathione peroxidase in slices was inhibited by cycloheximide or puromycin and 75Se was incorporated from [75Se]selenite into free selenocysteine and selenocysteyl tRNA. Increasing concentrations of selenocystine caused a progressive dilution of the 75Se and a corresponding decrease in glutathione peroxidase labeling. In cell-free systems, [75Se]selenocysteyl tRNA was the best substrate for glutathione peroxidase synthesis. These results indicate the existence in rat liver of the de novo synthesis of free selenocysteine and a translational pathway of selenocysteine incorporation into glutathione peroxidase 相似文献

Three factorial experiments were conducted to determine if high dietary fluoride (F) would inhibit selenite toxicity in rats.
Initially, three levels of selenite (0.05, 3, and 5 mg/kg diet) were matched against three levels of F (2, 75, and 150 mg/kg
diet). Fluoride failed to prevent the depressive effect of selenite on 8-wk food intake and body wt gain. Selenium (Se) concentration
of plasma and kidney and enzymatic activity of whole blood glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were also unaffected by F. Liver
Se concentration, however, was slightly (12%) but significantly (p<0.025) reduced when the highest F and Se levels were combined. Fluoride (150 mg/kg) appeared to reduce liver selenite toxicity
(5 mg/kg). Therefore, further study focused on liver histology with treatments that eliminated the middle levels of selenite
and F. Fluoride prevented the hepatic necrosis seen in selenite-toxic rats. Similar histological lesions were not observed
for kidney or heart. Fluoride partially (26%) but significantly (p<0.025) reduced thiobarbituric-reactive substances in selenite-toxic rats, but there was no F effect on intracellular distribution
of liver Se, glutathione levels in liver and kidney, or on liver xanthine oxidase activity. Overall, the protective effect
of F on selenite toxicity appears to be confined to liver pathology. The exact mechanism for this effect, however, remains
unclear.

The effects of inorganic selenium (Se) compounds (sodium selenite and selenate) on the activities of glutathione-related enzymes
(glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase [GST] and glutathione reductase [GR]) in pig blood platelets were investigated
in vitro. GST activity in blood platelets treated with 10−4
M of selenite was reduced to 50%, whereas no decrease GST activity was observed after the treatment of platelets with the same
dose of selenate. In platelets incubated with physiological doses (10−7, and 10−6
M) of Se compounds, the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) was enhanced (about 20%). GR activity after the exposure
of platelets to tested Se compounds was unaffected. 相似文献

Despite increasing evidence indicating the essential involvement of selenium (Se) on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, and meat quality of commercial broilers, the effects of different Se sources on local Chinese Subei chickens is unclear. A total of 360 50-day-old male chickens were individually weighed and randomly allocated to four treatment groups. Chickens in each of the four groups were fed diets supplemented with 0.3 mg Se/kg as sodium Se (SS), Se-enriched yeast (SY), selenomethionine (Met-Se), or nano red element Se (Nano-Se) for 40 days. At the end of the experiment, one bird of approximately average weight from each cage was selected and slaughtered, and blood and breast muscles samples were collected. The results showed that there was no significant difference in feed intake, body weight gain, or feed to gain ratio among treatments (P > 0.05). Dietary SY, Met-Se, and Nano-Se supplementation increased the activity of glutathione peroxidase in serum and breast muscles and decreased the concentration of malondialdehyde in serum and carbonyl in breast muscles compared with the SS group (P < 0.05). Moreover, SY, Met-Se, and Nano-Se supplementation increased pH45min, total protein solubility, and myofibrillar protein solubility, as well as decreased the shear force value compared with the SS group (P < 0.05). In addition, birds in the SY and Met-Se groups exhibited lower cooking loss compared with the SS group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, organic Se and Nano-Se supplementation resulted in an improvement of antioxidant capacity and meat quality in local Chinese Subei chickens relative to inorganic Se. 相似文献

Free radical scavenging efficiency of Nano-Se in vitro 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
In this study, we showed that smaller size particles of Nano-Se have better scavenging effects on the following free radicals: carbon-centered free radicals (R*) generated from 2,2'-azo-bis-(2-amidinopropane) hydrochloride (AAPH), the relatively stable free radical 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl (DPPH), the superoxide anion (O2*-) generated from the xanthine/xanthine oxidase (X/XO) system, singlet oxygen (1O2) generated by irradiated hemoporphyrin. Furthermore, the three sizes of Nano-Se studied also show protective effects against the oxidation of DNA. The three samples all have potential size-dependent characteristics on scavenging the free radicals. Although in this study we regarded Nano-Se as a whole without considering interactions between BSA and the red selenium nano-particles, there is the possibility that the apparent free radical scavenging effects may be partially contributed by such interactions. 相似文献

The subcellular distribution of selenium in rat tissues was studied by measuring 75Se in animals provided for 5 months with [75Se]selenite as the main dietary source of selenium. Equilibration of the animals to a constant specific activity allowed the measurement of 75Se to be used as a specific elemental assay for selenium. Of the whole-body selenium, 51% was in the soluble fractions and 48% was bound to the particulate fractions as follows: 21% in plasma membranes, 11% in microsomes, and 16% in mitochondria. Glutathione peroxidase was primarily a soluble enzyme, but part of the activity was associated with plasma membrane in liver, mitochondria in liver and kidney, and microsomes in testes. Selenium in glutathione peroxidase accounted for about one-third of the particulate-associated selenium. These results indicate that other selenium-containing proteins besides glutathione peroxidase are present in membranes. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is a key step in the pathogenesis of ethanol associated liver injury. Ethanol administration induces an increase in lipid peroxidation either by enhancing the production of oxygen reactive species or by decreasing the level of endogenous antioxidants. In this present study, four groups of male guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) were maintained for 45 days as follows: Control group (1 mg ascorbic acid (AA)/100 g body wt./day); Ethanol group (1 mg AA/100 g body wt./day+900 mg ethanol/100 g body wt./day); Selenium+AA group (25 mg AA+0.05 mg sodium selenite/100 g body wt./day); Ethanol+Se+AA group (25 mg AA+0.05 mg sodium selenite/100 g body wt.+900 mg ethanol/100 g body wt./day). Malondialehyde (MDA), hydroperoxides (HP) and conjugated dienes (CD) were significantly increased, while the activities of scavenging enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase were reduced in the alcohol administered groups. Co-administration of Se+AA along with alcohol increased the activities of scavenging enzymes and reduced the lipid peroxidation products level in hepatic tissues of guinea pigs. Activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and glutathione reductase (GR) were enhanced in co-administered group. gamma-Glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), a marker enzyme of alcohol induced toxicity, was also reduced, as was the glutathione content. This study suggests that the combined effect of Se+AA, provides protection against alcohol-induced oxidative stress as evidenced from the decreased levels of lipid peroxidation products and enhanced activities of scavenging enzymes. 相似文献

Metabolism of selenomethionine and effects of interacting compounds by mammalian cells in culture 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Since differences have been found in animals, the efficacies of selenomethionine (SeMet), selenite, and selenocystine (SeCys) for glutathione peroxidase (GPx) induction and cellular incorporation were compared and some effects of interacting nutrients on SeMet utilization were examined in tissue cultures. In three cell lines, Chang liver cells, mouse myoblasts and human fibroblasts, selenite was more effective than SeMet for GPx induction. However, radiotracer studies showed that SeMet was more rapidly incorporated into all cells than either selenite or SeCys. Chromatography of acid hydrolysates of Chang liver cells grown with 75Se-labeled SeMet indicated that approximately 90% of incorporated 75Se remained as SeMet, and less than 10% was as SeCys, the form of Se in GPx. Selenite supplementation slightly reduced both the incorporation of 75SeMet and the proportion of cellular 75Se recoverable as SeCys in Chang liver cells. Supplementation with L-methionine, however, significantly reduced 75SeMet incorporation, but significantly increased the proportion of cellular 75Se recovered as SeCys. L-cystine supplementation had no effect on either the cellular incorporation of 75SeMet or the proportion of cellular 75Se recovered as SeCys. These studies of SeMet utilization and effects of interacting nutrients are reflective of observations on SeMet metabolism in whole animals and humans. 相似文献

Selenium uptake and its influence on the antioxidative system of white clover as affected by lime and phosphorus fertilization 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Selenium (Se) is regarded as an antioxidant in animal and human nutrition, but its biological role in plants needs to be clarified.
Plants vary considerably in their ability to tolerate Se, and their biochemical response to Se may be affected by liming or
P fertilization. Two greenhouse experiments were conducted with white clover (Trifolium repens L.) to evaluate Se accumulation, tolerance, and the antioxidant response at increasing selenite supply levels (from 0 to
60 g Se ha−1) and the effect of lime and P on both the Se uptake and the antioxidant activity of plants treated with 0, 20 and 40 g Se
ha−1. Selenium concentration in plant tissues was increased by Se applications, and plant growth was reduced at Se supply levels
above 20 g ha−1. At shoot concentration up to 200 μg kg−1 DW, Se promoted antioxidant ability by increasing the free radical scavenging activity and by inhibiting lipid peroxidation
(TBARS), whereas above this level TBARS accumulation increased. Significant changes in the activities of peroxidase (POD)
and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) enzymes were also observed as a consequence of the increase in shoot Se concentration. The
application of lime and P improved the plant nutrition, which increased the dry matter yield and enhanced the plant’s antioxidative
system. Under different combinations of soil acidity and P fertilization a differential uptake of Se by the plant occurred.
These factors appear to be responsible for beneficial or detrimental effects of Se in terms of lipid peroxidation of biological
membranes and the activation of POD and APX in white clover. 相似文献
