Selenoprotein gene nomenclature [PDF]
The human genome contains 25 genes coding for selenocysteine-containing proteins (selenoproteins). These proteins are involved in a variety of functions, most notably redox homeostasis.

Immune aging impairs muscle regeneration via macrophage-derived anti-oxidant selenoprotein P [PDF]
Muscle regeneration is impaired with aging, due to both intrinsic defects of muscle stem cells (MuSCs) and alterations of their niche. Here, we monitor the cells constituting the MuSC niche over time in young and old regenerating mouse muscle.

New-onset autoantibodies to selenoprotein P following severe burn injury [PDF]
The liver-derived selenium (Se) transporter selenoprotein P (SELENOP) declines in critical illness as a negative acute phase reactant and has recently been identified as an autoantigen.

Circulating selenoprotein P levels predict glucose‐lowering and insulinotropic effects of metformin, but not alogliptin: A post‐hoc analysis [PDF]
Aims/Introduction Selenoprotein P (SeP; encoded by SEPP1 in humans) is a hepatokine that causes impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Metformin downregulates SELENOP promoter activity through an adenosine monophosphate‐activated kinase ...

A randomized trial of selenium supplementation and risk of type-2 diabetes, as assessed by plasma adiponectin [PDF]
Background: Evidence that selenium affects the risk of type-2 diabetes is conflicting, with observational studies and a few randomized trials showing both lower and higher risk linked to the level of selenium intake and status. We investigated the effect
