Abstract
Autophagy is commonly referred as self-eating and a complex cellular process that is involved in the digestion of protein and damaged organelles through a lysosome-dependent mechanism, and this mechanism is essential for maintaining proper cellular homeostasis. Selenium is a vital trace element that plays essential functions in antioxidant defense, redox state control, and range of particular metabolic processes. Selenium nanoparticles have become known as a promising agent for biomedical use, because of their high bioavailability, low toxicity, and degradability. However, and in recent years, they have attracted the interest of researchers in developing anticancer nano-drugs. Selenium nanoparticles can be used as a potential therapeutic agent or in combination with other agents to act as carriers for the development of new treatments. More intriguingly, selenium nanoparticles have been extensively shown to impact autophagy signaling, allowing selenium nanoparticles to be used as possible cancer treatment agents. This review explored the connections between selenium and autophagy, followed by developments and current advances of selenium nanoparticles for autophagy control in various clinical circumstances. Furthermore, this study examined the functions and possible processes of selenium nanoparticles in autophagy regulation, which may help us understand how selenium nanoparticles regulate autophagy for the potential cancer treatment.

Association between serum trace element, mineral, and amino acid levels with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in adult women. J Trace Elem Med Biol 2024; 83:127397. [PMID: 38290269 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtemb.2024.127397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
The objective of the present study is assessment of serum trace element and amino acid levels in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients with subsequent evaluation of its independent associations with markers of liver injury and metabolic risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS 140 women aged 20-90 years old with diagnosed NAFLD and 140 healthy women with a respective age range were enrolled in the current study. Analysis of serum and hair levels of trace elements and minerals was performed with inductively-coupled plasma mass-spectrometry (ICP-MS). Serum amino acid concentrations were evaluated by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV-detection. In addition, routine biochemical parameters including liver damage markers, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), were assessed spectrophotometrically. RESULTS The findings demonstrated that patients with NAFLD were characterized by higher ALT, GGT, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and cholinesterase (CE) activity, as well as increased levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, and uric acid. NAFLD patients were characterized by reduced serum and hair Co, Se, and Zn levels, as well as hair Cu content and serum Mn concentrations in comparison to controls. Circulating Ala, Cit, Glu, Gly, Ile, Leu, Phe, and Tyr levels in NAFLD patients exceeded those in the control group. Multiple linear regression demonstrated that serum and hair trace element levels were significantly associated with circulating amino acid levels after adjustment for age, BMI, and metabolic parameters including liver damage markers. CONCLUSION It is proposed that altered trace element handling may contribute to NAFLD pathogenesis through modulation of amino acid metabolism.

Abstract
Increasing fertility rates have become one of the factors that concern all people in the world. Therefore, the study aims to use two mutated strains of probiotics enriched with selenium (PSe40/60/1 and BSe50/20/1) to improve fertility. Thirty Swiss albino male mice were divided into three groups; control, LP + S was given Lactobacillus plantarum PSe40/60/1 plus selenium, and BL + S was given Bifidobacterium longum BSe50/20/1 plus selenium. Free testosterone, LH, and FSH were measured in serum by biochemical analysis. Testicular tissues were examined by histopathological analysis. The count and motility of sperm, and sperm abnormalities were determined by microscopic examination. The method of qRT-PCR was used to detect gene expression of Tspyl1, Hsd3b6, and Star genes. The biochemical results showed that serum content of free testosterone (FT) hormone had significantly increase in the BL + S and LP + S groups compared with control. Levels of LH and FSH hormones were the highest in the BL + S group. The treated groups showed all developmental stages of spermatogenesis, including spermatogenesis, spermatocytes, and seminiferous tubule spermatids, as well as intact Sertoli cells and Leydig cells without changes. When compared to the control group, sperm count and motility increased in the BL + S group, while sperm abnormalities decreased. The expression of Tspyl1 gene in testicular tissues decreased in the LP + S and BL + S groups, while the expression of Star and Hsd3b6 genes was higher in the BL + S group and lower in the LP + S group compared with the control group. Therefore, Bifidobacterium longum BSe50/20/1 enriched with selenium could be useful in enhancing male fertility.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the alleviating effect of selenium-enriched Lactobacillus plantarum (SL) 6076 on colitis and liver inflammation induced by sodium dextran sulfate (DSS) in mice and its potential molecular mechanisms. Lactobacillus plantarum (LA) was cultured for 3 generations on MRS medium containing sodium selenite to generate SL. LA (3.2 × 1011 CFU mL-1), low selenium Lactobacillus plantarum (LS) (3.9 × 1010 CFU mL-1, 0.35 mg mL-1 Se) and high selenium Lactobacillus plantarum (HS) (2.8 × 1010 CFU mL-1, 0.52 mg mL-1 Se) were continuously fed to mice for 21 d to observe their effects on DSS-induced colitis and liver inflammation in mice. The composition of gut microbiota was detected through high-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing, and inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress parameters, and serum biochemical indicators were measured in the colon and liver using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and biochemical analysis methods. The results showed that SL alleviated inflammation symptoms in the colon and liver, reduced the expression of inflammatory factors in the colon and liver, regulated oxidative stress responses in the colon, downregulated NF-κB-P65 pathway factors, and altered the composition and structure of the gut microbiota. In summary, DSS-induced colitis may cause liver inflammation, and SL had a significant relieving effect on both colon and liver inflammation. The intervention effect of SL was better than that of LA, while HS was better than LS. SL had a significant alleviating effect on DSS-induced colitis, and may exert its therapeutic effect by downregulating NF-κB-P65 signaling pathways and regulating the structure of intestinal microbiota. This study provides a new approach for the treatment of colitis.

Abstract
Chronic liver disease (CLD) is a continuous process that causes a reduction of liver function lasting more than six months. CLD includes alcoholic liver disease (ALD), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), chronic viral infection, and autoimmune hepatitis, which can lead to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and cancer. Liver inflammation and oxidative stress are commonly associated with the development and progression of CLD. Molecular signaling pathways such as AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), C-Jun N-terminal kinase, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are implicated in the pathogenesis of CLD. Therefore, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents from natural products are new potent therapies for ALD, NAFLD, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this review, we summarize some powerful products that can be potential applied in all the stages of CLD, from ALD/NAFLD to HCC. The selected agents such as β-sitosterol, curcumin, genistein, and silymarin can regulate the activation of several important molecules, including AMPK, Farnesoid X receptor, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2, PPARs, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase, and lysyl oxidase-like proteins. In addition, clinical trials are undergoing to evaluate their efficacy and safety.

Abstract
Autophagy, one of the major intracellular degradation systems, plays an important role in maintaining normal cellular physiological functions and protecting organisms from different diseases. Selenium (Se), an essential trace element, is involved in many metabolic regulatory signaling events and plays a key role in human health. In recent years, selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) have attracted increasing attentions in biomedical field due to their low toxicity, high bioavailability and high bioactivity. Taking the advantage of their advanced biological activities, Se NPs can be used alone as potential therapeutic agents, or combine with other agents and served as carriers for the development of novel therapeutics. More interestingly, Se NPs have been widely reported to affect autophagy signaling, which therefor allow Se NPs to be used as potential therapeutic agents against different diseases. Here, this review suggested the relationships between Se and autophagy, followed by the trends and recent progresses of Se NPs for autophagy regulation in different diseased conditions. More importantly, this work discussed the roles and potential mechanisms of Se NPs in autophagy regulating, which might enhance our understanding about how Se NPs regulate autophagy for potential disease treatment. This work is expected to promote the potential application of Se NPs as novel autophagy regulators, which might benefit the development of novel autophagy associated therapeutics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammatory response could affect many systems. Cardiac dysfunction develops due to cardiovascular system damage and could be mortal. Selenium is a trace element that can be used as a dietary supplement and has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. This study aims to evaluate the protective effects of selenium on cardiovascular damage via silenced information regulator 1 (SIRT1)/p53 and cytochrome C (Cyt-c)/ caspase-3 (Cas-3) pathways. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-two rats were randomly divided into 4 groups as control, LPS (0.1 mg/kg, intraperitoneally(i.p.), 2-7 days) and LPS + Selenium (LPS-0.1 mg/kg, i.p., 2-7 days, selenium - 100 µg/kg, i.p., 1-7 days) and selenium (100 µg/kg, i.p., 1-7 days) group. On the 8th day of the experiment, rats were sacrificed. Blood samples and half of the left ventricles were collected for biochemical and genetic analysis. The remaining left ventricles and aorta were taken for histological and immunohistochemical analysis. In the LPS group myocardial hemorrhages, hyperemia, and endothelial cell loss were observed. Also, Cas-3 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expressions; creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), ischemia modified albumin (IMA), total oxidant status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI) levels; p53, Cyt-c, Cas-3 mRNA expressions increased while total antioxidant status (TAS) levels, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity, SIRT1 mRNA expression decreased. Selenium treatment reversed all these changes. CONCLUSION Selenium showed protective effects on cardiovascular injury via regulating SIRT1/p53 and Cyt-c/Cas-3 pathways. This study enlightened the possible usage of selenium on cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
This study aims to explore the effects of dietary selenium on hepatic mitochondrial quality and energy supply of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) fed with high-fat diet (HFD) after heat stress (HS). Grass carp were fed with HFD, and HFD contained 0.3 mg/kg nano-selenium for 10 weeks, thereafter exposed to HS from 26 to 34 °C, and named the HFD + HS (control) group and the HFD + Se + HS group, respectively. The results show that selenium significantly prompted the growth, increased glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity, but reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the liver and the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in the serum of grass carp fed with HFD after HS. Further, selenium alleviated mitochondrial damage and increased the number of mitochondrial DNA copies in the liver of the grass carp fed with HFD after HS. And selenium also maintained mitochondrial homeostasis by upregulating the expression of mitochondrial quality control-related genes (pgc-1α, nrf1/2, tfam, opa1, mfn1/2, and drp1), mitophagy-related genes (beclin1, atg5, atg12, pink1, and parkin), and the protein expression of parkin and LC3-II/I in the liver of grass carp. Finally, selenium reduced the triglyceride (TG) level and increased the free fatty acid (FFA) level and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production in the liver of grass carp fed with HFD after HS. In conclusion, dietary selenium alleviated liver damage and improved liver mitochondrial quality and ATP production by increasing liver antioxidant capacity and promoting liver mitochondrial quality in grass carp fed with HFD after HS, which help grass carp to resist these two stressors.

Chem Biol Interact 2022; 364:110039. [PMID: 35863473 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2022.110039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
The current study was aimed to validate the mice model of alcohol (ALC), high-fat diet (HFD), and HFD + ALC combination affecting neurobehavioral and neurochemical anomalies via inflammatory cascade, lowered neurogenesis, enhanced microgliosis, reactive astrogliosis, activated IDO-1 (indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase), and reduce CHAT (choline acetyltransferase) signaling in the hippocampus (HIP). The adult male Swiss albino mice were provided with ALC (3-15%) and in-house prepared HFD for continuous 12 weeks. The HFD and HFD + ALC consumption impacted the liver and mediated HIP damage. The liver biomarkers (AST, ALT, γ-GT, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C), oxidative stress, and proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α) level were found significantly higher in the liver and HIP tissue of HFD + ALC. Furthermore, the neurobehavioral deficits that include cognitive dysfunction, depressive, and, anxiety-like behavior were found severely affected in HFD + ALC consumed mice. The overactivated HPA axis, intense oxidative insults, and increased AChE activity were seen in the HIP of HFD + ALC grouped mice. The gene and protein expression also confirmed disrupted NF-κB-mediated inflammatory and Nrf2-regulated antioxidant balance and dysregulated TrκB/BDNF signaling. Hence, our new findings explain the insight mechanism of chronic alcoholism in exacerbating the deleterious effect of chronic high-fat diet consumption on the HIP.
