On the mechanisms involved in antinociception induced by diphenyl diselenide

Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2005
In this study, we described the local peripheral antinociceptive activity produced by diphenyl diselenide in the formalin test as compared to ebselen, an amply studied organoselenium compound. A second objective was to evaluate, the possible mechanisms underlying the antinociceptive effect caused by diphenyl diselenide.

Effects of diphenyl diselenide and diphenyl ditellurite on chicken embryo development

Toxicology Mechanisms and Methods, 2013
Studies of our group has demonstrated that (PhSe)2 plays some pharmacologic activities. In addition, it is possible that this compound would be an alternative source of organic selenium in animal foods. However, previous works showed that diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2 and diphenyl ditelluride (PhTe)2 are toxic for mammals, but their undesirable effects ...

Toxicological evaluation of subchronic exposure to diphenyl diselenide in rats

Journal of Applied Toxicology, 2008
AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the effects caused by subchronic exposure to diphenyl diselenide in rats. Adult Wistar rats were exposed to diphenyl diselenide (5–300 µmol kg−1, subcutaneously) once a day for 14 days. The subchronic administration of diphenyl diselenide at a dose of 300 µmol kg−1 significantly increased aspartate ...

Antinociceptive properties of diphenyl diselenide: Evidences for the mechanism of action

European Journal of Pharmacology, 2007
The present study examined the acute toxicity and antinociceptive effects of diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)2, given orally (p.o.), in chemical and thermical models of pain in mice. Diphenyl diselenide (7.8-312 mg/kg, p.o.) did not cause mortality. This compound did not change plasma AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase ...

Effects of diphenyl–diselenide on orofacial dyskinesia model in rats

Brain Research Bulletin, 2006
Recently, we have described the beneficial effects of Diphenyl diselenide, an organochalcogen with glutathione peroxidase-like activity, on reserpine-induced orofacial dyskinesia in old rats. In this study, our aim was to examine the effects of diselenide on haloperidol-induced orofacial dyskinesia in rats.

Diphenyl diselenide and analogs are substrates of cerebral rat thioredoxin reductase: A pathway for their neuroprotective effects [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2011
Thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) isoforms play important roles in cell physiology, protecting cells against oxidative processes. In addition to its endogenous substrates (Trx isoforms), hepatic TrxR can reduce organic selenium compounds such as ebselen and ...

Physicochemical and Biochemical Profiling of Diphenyl Diselenide

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2013
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the physicochemical and biochemical profiling of diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)₂, a selenoorganic compound with biological activity. Experimental protocols were established for chemical stability in isotonic phosphate buffer (PBS) pH 7.4 and in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids, biological stability (
