Selenoprotein P in Myocardial Infarction With Cardiogenic Shock
Shock, 2020 ABSTRACT Background: Reperfusion strategies in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may result in ischemia reperfusion injury characterized by increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and ultimately death of myocardial tissue which may be of particular importance in infarct-related cardiogenic shock (CS).

Altered hippocampus synaptic function in selenoprotein P deficient mice
Molecular Neurodegeneration, 2006 Selenium is an essential micronutrient that function through selenoproteins. Selenium deficiency results in lower concentrations of selenium and selenoproteins.

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy
BMEMat, EarlyView.Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...

Domain structure of bi-functional selenoprotein P [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2004 Human selenoprotein P (SeP), a selenium-rich plasma glycoprotein, is presumed to contain ten selenocysteine residues; one of which is located at the 40th residue in the N-terminal region and the remaining nine localized in the C-terminal third part.

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Heat stress (HS) is an increasing threat to male reproductive health, disrupting spermatogenesis through complex and interdependent cellular responses within the seminiferous epithelium. Although excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is a hallmark of HS, ROS also act as central regulators of cell fate decisions beyond their role ...

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious illness in which more than half of all deaths are due to malnutrition. Critically low energy and protein intake are known causes of massive weight loss, whereas micronutrient deficiencies due to a low‐calorie food pattern remain poorly characterized in children with AN. Micronutrient deficiencies in
