Selenium transformation and selenium-rich foods

Nan Chen et al.

Summary: Selenium is an essential trace element involved in the synthesis of selenoproteins in higher animals, with organic selenium considered safer than inorganic selenium. While super-nutritional intake of selenium has been claimed to prevent cancer, consistent clinical results are lacking. In selenium-deficient areas, consuming selenium-rich foods may be the safest and best recommendation.

In vivo quantification of volatile organoselenium compounds released by bacteria exposed to selenium with HS-SPME-GC-MS. Effect of selenite and selenium nanoparticles

Gustavo Moreno-Martin et al.

Summary: The biotransformation of selenium compounds into volatile organoselenium species is influenced by the type of bacterial species and chemical form of selenium. E. coli can convert selenite and Ch-SeNPs into different organoselenium compounds, while S. aureus is limited in its conversion abilities. Additionally, the formation of a new volatile mixed sulfur/selenium compound, dimethyl selenenyl sulfide, from nanoparticulated selenium has been detected for the first time.

Cellular antioxidant mechanism of selenium-enriched yeast diets in the protection of meat quality of heat-stressed hens

Bing Liu et al.

Summary: Adding dietary selenium-enriched yeast can effectively reduce the negative impacts of oxidative stress on meat quality in heat-stressed hens, by enhancing the cellular antioxidant defense system and inhibiting oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in muscle cells.

Global soil distribution, dietary access routes, bioconversion mechanisms and the human health significance of selenium: A review

John-Nelson Ekumah et al.

Summary: Selenium is a necessary micronutrient with health benefits, but accessing organic selenium in nature is challenging due to uneven global distribution. Various methods such as genetic engineering, selenium fertilizer, and microorganisms can help address this issue. There are also unexplored opportunities to convert inorganic selenium from selenium-rich soil into organic forms for human consumption.

A novel therapeutic strategy for hepatocellular carcinoma: Immunomodulatory mechanisms of selenium and/or selenoproteins on a shift towards anti-cancer

Bao-Kang Wu et al.

Summary: Selenium, an essential trace element, exerts immunomodulatory effects on HCC by regulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and immune response. Studies have shown that selenium levels are generally low in tissues of HCC patients, but supplementation can increase selenium concentrations, suggesting a potential therapeutic role against HCC.
