Selenium and cancer: biomarkers of selenium status and molecular action of selenium supplements
European Journal of Nutrition, 2008 The relationship between selenium and cancer involves many different aspects. These include the forms of selenium present in the diet and in the body, their functions and mechanisms of action, and methods employed in assessing an individual's selenium nutritional status-both in general, and in epidemiological studies of the risk of cancer in relation ...
