[PMID: 38242456 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) is one of the most widely used flame retardants that can infect domestic and wildlife through contaminated feed. Nano‑selenium (Nano-Se) has the advantage of enhancing the anti-oxidation of cells. Nonetheless, it remains uncertain whether Nano-Se can alleviate vascular Endothelial cells damage caused by BDE-209 exposure in chickens. Therefore, we established a model with 60 1-day-old chickens, and administered BDE-209 intragastric at a ratio of 400 mg/kg bw/d, and mixed Nano-Se intervention at a ratio of 1 mg/kg in the feed. The results showed that BDE-209 could induce histopathological and ultrastructural changes. Additionally, exposure to BDE-209 led to cardiovascular endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), oxidative stress and thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP)-pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) pathway activation, ultimately resulting in pyroptosis. Using the ERS inhibitor 4-PBA in Chicken arterial endothelial cells (PAECs) can significantly reverse these changes. The addition of Nano-Se can enhance the body's antioxidant capacity, inhibit the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, and reduce cellular pyroptosis. These results suggest that Nano-Se can alleviate the pyroptosis of cardiovascular endothelial cells induced by BDE-209 through ERS-TXNIP-NLRP3 pathway. This study provides new insights into the toxicity of BDE-209 in the cardiovascular system and the therapeutic effects of Nano-Se.

Abstract
This work investigated the impact of vitamin K2 and selenium co-supplementation on metabolic profile and indicators of cardiovascular health in dyslipidemic rabbits. Fifty adult male rabbits were equally allocated into 5 groups: Control group, Dyslipidemic group: received 0.5% cholesterol in diet for 12 weeks, groups 3, 4 and 5 dyslipidemic rabbits daily treated with vitamin K2 (10 mg/kg bw) or/and selenium (1 mg/kg bw) for 8 weeks. Co-supplementation of vitamin K2 and selenium significantly decreased body weight gain and blood pressure elevation in dyslipidemic rabbits compared to un-treated ones. Consuming vitamin K2 plus selenium also markedly lowered serum lipids encompassing cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL and elevated HDL relative to placebo. Additionally, such co-supplementation reduced fasting glucose and insulin, enhancing insulin sensitivity with respect to placebo. Regarding cardiovascular risk markers, dyslipidemic rabbits received vitamin K2 concurrently with selenium displayed lower levels of atherogenic index (LDL/HDL), serum C-reactive protein, heart fatty acid-binding protein and asymmetric dimethylarginine as well as aortic ox-LDL, lipid peroxidation and calcium but higher levels of serum nitric oxide and aortic total antioxidants than un-treated ones. Concomitant administration of vitamin K2 and selenium improved metabolic profile, markers of cardiovascular health and atherosclerosis in dyslipidemic rabbits.

Abstract
The antioxidant effects of selenium as a component of selenoproteins has been thought to modulate host immunity and viral pathogenesis. Accordingly, the association of low dietary selenium status with inflammatory and immunodeficiency has been reported in the literature; however, the causal role of selenium deficiency in chronic inflammatory diseases and viral infection is still undefined. The COVID-19, characterized by acute respiratory syndrome and caused by the novel coronavirus 2, SARS-CoV-2, has infected millions of individuals worldwide since late 2019. The severity and mortality from COVID-19 have been associated with several factor, including age, sex and selenium deficiency. However, available data on selenium status and COVID-19 are limited, and a possible causative role for selenium deficiency in COVID-19 severity has yet to be fully addressed. In this context, we review the relationship between selenium, selenoproteins, COVID-19, immune and inflammatory responses, viral infection, and aging. Regardless of the role of selenium in immune and inflammatory responses, we emphasize that selenium supplementation should be indicated after a selenium deficiency be detected, particularly, in view of the critical role played by selenoproteins in human health. In addition, the levels of selenium should be monitored after the start of supplementation and discontinued as soon as normal levels are reached. Periodic assessment of selenium levels after supplementation is a critical issue to avoid over production of toxic metabolites of selenide because under normal conditions, selenoproteins attain saturated expression levels that limits their potential deleterious metabolic effects.

Abstract
To study the effects of the seleno-chitosan on daily gain, wool yield, and blood parameters in the Chinese merino sheep in the selenium (Se)-deficient pastures. The samples of soils, forages, and tissues had been collected in the Southern Xinjiang of Northwest China. Our findings indicated that the Se contents in soils and forages from affected pastures were remarkably lower than those unaffected by the pastures (P < 0.01). The Se contents in the blood and the wool from affected Chinese merino sheep were extremely lower than those from healthy sheep. Meanwhile, the values of Hb, PCV, and PLT in affected sheep were significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The yield of wool and the growth rate in affected sheep were also remarkably reduced (P < 0.01). The affected Chinese merino sheep were orally treated by seleno-chitosan for 150 days; the Se contents in blood were remarkably increased and reached the healthy range on day 5. The blood parameters soon recovered to a healthy range on day 10. The growth rate of sheep in the treated group was remarkably higher than that in the control animals. The yield of the wool was also significantly increased in the treated group. Consequently, the Se-deprived environment caused a threat to daily gain, wool yield, and blood parameters in the Chinese merino sheep. The seleno-chitosan could not only markedly increase the Se contents blood contents, but also significantly increase the production performance (daily gain and wool yield), and release the symptoms of anemia in the Se-deprived animal.

Abstract
We have found that the Reclamation merino sheep in Southern Xinjiang, China, showed emaciation, stiff limbs, instability, and sudden death, which is related to the impairment of immune function and antioxidant capacity caused by selenium (Se) deficiency. The experiments were to study the effects of Se-enriched malt on the immune and antioxidant function in Se-deprived Reclamation merino sheep in Southern Xinjiang, China. The samples of soil and forage had been collected from tested pastures, and animal tissues were also collected in tested animals. The mineral content of soil, forage, and animal tissues was measured in the collected samples. Hematological indexes and biochemical values were also examined. The findings showed that the Se contents were extremely lower in affected soil and forage than those from healthy soil and forage (P < 0.01). The Se contents in affected blood and wool were also extremely lower than those from healthy blood and wool (P < 0.01). The values in glutathione peroxidase and total antioxidant capacity in affected serum samples were also extremely lower than those from healthy serum samples, and levels of malondialdehyde, total nitric oxide synthase, and lipid peroxide were extremely higher in affected serum samples than those from healthy serum samples (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, the values of hemoglobin, packed cell volume, and platelet count from affected blood were extremely lower than those from healthy blood (P < 0.01). The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, immunoglobulin A, and immunoglobulin G in serum were extremely decreased in the affected Reclamation merino sheep (P < 0.01). The levels of IL-6 and immunoglobulin M in serum were extremely reduced in the affected Reclamation merino sheep compared to healthy animals (P < 0.01). The animals in affected pastures were orally treated with Se-enriched malt, and the Se contents in blood were extremely increased (P < 0.01). The immune function and antioxidant indicator returned to within the healthy range. Consequently, our findings were indicated that the disorder of the Reclamation merino sheep was mainly caused by the Se deficiency in soil and forage. The Se-enriched malt could not only markedly increase the Se content in blood but also much improve the immune function and the antioxidant capacity in the Se-deprived Reclamation merino sheep.

Abstract
The experiments were to study the effects of Se-yeast on immune and antioxidant in Selenium(Se)-deprived Pishan red sheep in Southern Xinjiang, China. The samples of soil, forage, and animal tissues were collected, and used for measuring mineral content, physiological parameter, and biochemical values. These findings showed that the Se contents in affected soil and forage were markedly lower than those from unaffected soil and forage (P < 0.01). Se in affected blood and wool were also extremely lower than those from healthy Pishan red sheep (P < 0.01). The hemoglobin, packed cell volume, platelet count, Glutathione peroxidase, and total antioxidant capacity in the affected Pishan red sheep were markedly lower than those from healthy ones too (P < 0.01). The levels of malondialdehyde, total nitric oxide synthase, and lipid peroxide in Pishan red sheep from affected pastures were extremely higher than those from healthy ones (P < 0.01). The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, Interleukin-2, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 from serum were markedly decreased in affected Pishan red sheep(P < 0.01). The Pishan red sheep in Se-deprived pasture were treated by orally with Se-yeast, the amount of Se in the blood markedly increased in treated animals. Meanwhile, the immune and antioxidant indicator was returned to the healthy values. Consequently, our findings were indicated that Se-deprived forage caused oxidative damage, and a serious threat to the immune function in animals. The Se-yeast is more effective in the Se-deficient Pishan red sheep including blood Se content, immune function and the antioxidant capacity.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) deficiency and poor plasma Se levels can cause cardiovascular diseases by decreasing selenoprotein levels. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) may be the vicious cycle center of inflammation in vasculitis. Here, we show that Se deficiency induced arteritis mainly by reducing selenoprotein S (SelS), and promoted the progression of arteritis by regulating the recruitment of neutrophils and NET formation. Silencing SelS induced chicken arterial endothelial cells (PAECs) to secrete cytokines, and activated neutrophils to promote NET formation. Conversely, scavenging DNA-NETs promoted cytokine secretion in PAECs. The NET formation regulated by siSelS was dependent on a reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst. We also found that the PPAR pathway was a major mediator of NET formation induced by Se-deficient arteritis. Overall, our results reveal how Se deficiency regulates NET formation in the progression of arteritis and support silencing-SelS worsens arteritis.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is one of the essential trace elements for immune regulation and antioxidant systems in fish growth. The dietary Se plays an important role in immune regulation and inflammation by regulating HSPs and TLRs in liver of many animals. The liver is an important digestive organ in carp. Liver damage can seriously affect the growth and survival of carp. This study was conducted to determine whether Se regulated liver inflammation by affecting HSPs-TLR2 signalling and the potential mechanisms of action in common carp. The gene was analysed by qPCR. The proteins of inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA. The others proteins were analysed by Western blot. The results indicated the Se concentrations in blood and liver tissues were significantly influenced by dietary Se. The Se deficiency increased the expression of HSP60 and TLR2 and the secretion of the proinflammatory factor TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, induced a low secretion of the anti-inflammatory TGF-β, but the Se supplements could transform these events. Further research showed that with the dose-dependently decrease of Se, the HSP60 expressions were increased, and the MAPKs pathway were significantly activated by the phosphorylation of p38, JNK and ERK in liver tissue and cell. The results provide evidence that Se deficiency induced and exacerbated inflammatory injury to the liver through the HSP60 and TLR2-MAPKs signalling pathways in carp.
