Expression of a catalytically inactive mutant form of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) confers a dominant-negative effect in male fertility. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The selenoenzyme Gpx4 is essential for early embryogenesis and cell viability for its unique function to prevent phospholipid oxidation. Recently, the cytosolic form of Gpx4 was identified as an upstream regulator of a novel form of non-apoptotic cell ...

Ccdc152 is not necessary for male fertility, but contributes to maintaining sperm morphology

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development
Selenoprotein P (SeP) is synthesized in the liver and plays a vital role in maintaining selenium homeostasis via transport throughout the body. Previous studies have shown that SeP-deficient mice have severely reduced expression of selenoproteins ...

A case–control study of selenoprotein genes polymorphisms and autoimmune thyroid diseases in a Chinese population

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2017
Background Selenium is an essential trace and there is a high selenium concentration in the thyroid gland. Selenium deficiency may impair the thyroid function.

Selenoprotein P status correlates to cancer-specific mortality in renal cancer patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for selenoprotein biosynthesis. Selenoproteins have been implicated in cancer risk and tumor development. Selenoprotein P (SePP) serves as the major Se transport protein in blood and as reliable biomarker of Se

Determinants of selenium status in healthy adults

open access: yesNutrition Journal, 2011
Background Selenium (Se) status in non-deficient subjects is typically assessed by the Se contents of plasma/serum. That pool comprises two functional, specific selenoprotein components and at least one non-functional, non-specific components which ...

Selenoprotein M is expressed during bone development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
25 selenoproteins that contain selenium, incorporated as selenocysteine (Sec), have been identified to date. Selenoprotein M (SELM) is one of seven endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident, Sec-containing proteins that may be involved in posttranslational ...
