Circulating concentration of the essential trace element selenium (Se) was significantly lower in inflammatory disorders. Although Se plays physiological roles mainly through the function of 25 selenoproteins, the response of the selenogenome in immune tissues during inflammatory reactions remains unclear. The objective of this study was to determine the Se retention and selenogenome expression in immune tissues during the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response in porcine. A total of 12 male pigs were randomly divided into two groups and injected with LPS or saline. After 4 h postinjection, blood samples were collected and pigs were euthanized. Pigs challenged with LPS had 36.8 and 16.6 % lower (P < 0.05) Se concentrations in the serum and spleen, respectively, than those injected with saline. Moreover, the activities of GPX decreased (P < 0.05) by 23.4, 26.6, and 30.4 % in the serum, thymus, and lymph node, respectively, in the pigs injected with LPS. Furthermore, the LPS challenge altered (P < 0.05) the mRNA expression of 14, 16, 10, and 6 selenoprotein genes in the liver, spleen, thymus, and lymph node, respectively. Along with 10 previously reported selenoprotein genes, the response of Txnrd2, Txnrd3, Sep15, Selh, Seli, Seln, Selo, Selt, Selx, and Sephs2 to inflammatory reaction in immune tissues were newly illustrated in this study. In conclusion, the LPS-induced inflammatory response impaired Se metabolism and was associated with dysregulation of the selenogenome expression in immune tissues.
