Selenoprotein P; P for Plasma, Prognosis, Prophylaxis, and More
Selenoprotein P (SeP) is one of the 25 human selenocysteine (Sec)-containing proteins, and is generally thought to function as a plasma carrier of the trace element selenium in the body. Recent studies, however, indicate unsuspected pivotal roles of SeP in human diseases, particularly in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and pulmonary arterial ...

Selenoprotein P Expression, Purification, and Immunochemical Characterization [PDF]
Most selenoproteins contain a single selenocysteine residue per polypeptide chain, encoded by an in-frame UGA codon. Selenoprotein P is unique in that its mRNA encodes 10-12 selenocysteine residues, depending on species. In addition to the high number of selenocysteines, the protein is cysteine- and histidine-rich.

Evidence of epistasis between Interleukin-1 and Selenoprotein-S with susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Objective: Selenoprotein-S (SELS) is involved in the stress response within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and inflammation. Recently, promoter variants in the SELS gene were shown to be associated with plasma levels of interleukin (IL)6, IL1β and tumour

Localization and regulation of pancreatic selenoprotein P [PDF]
Progressive loss of pancreatic β-cell mass is a crucial feature of type 2 diabetes mellitus. As β-cells express very low amounts of the antioxidant enzymes catalase and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), they appear to be particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of diabetes.
