Abstract
Kidney diseases are important diseases that affect human health worldwide. According to the 2020 World Health Organization (WHO) report, kidney diseases have become the top 10 causes of death. Strengthening the prevention, primary diagnosis, and action of kidney-related diseases is of great significance in maintaining human health and improving the quality of life. It is increasingly challenging to address clinical needs with the present technologies for diagnosing and treating renal illness. Fortunately, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown great promise in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases. This review summarizes the research progress of MOFs in the diagnosis and treatment of renal disease in recent years. Firstly, we introduce the basic structure and properties of MOFs. Secondly, we focus on the utilization of MOFs in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases. In the diagnosis of kidney disease, MOFs are usually designed as biosensors to detect biomarkers related to kidney disease. In the treatment of kidney disease, MOFs can not only be used as an effective adsorbent for uremic toxins during hemodialysis but also as a precise treatment of intelligent drug delivery carriers. They can also be combined with nano-chelation technology to solve the problem of the imbalance of trace elements in kidney disease. Finally, we describe the current challenges and prospects of MOFs in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases.

Abstract
Nutrition management is fundamental for children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Fluid balance and low-protein and low-sodium diets are the more stressed fields from a nutritional point of view. At the same time, the role of micronutrients is often underestimated. Starting from the causes that could lead to potential micronutrient deficiencies in these patients, this review considers all micronutrients that could be administered in CKD to improve the prognosis of this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between serum selenium (Se) and acute kidney injury after adult cardiac surgery (CSA-AKI) remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association of preoperative Se level with incident CSA-AKI. METHOD AND RESULTS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients who underwent cardiac surgery. The primary outcome was incident CSA-AKI. Multivariable logistic regression models and natural cubic splines were used to estimate the association of Se levels and primary outcome. A total of 453 patient with a mean age of 62.97 years were included. Among all patients, 159 (35.1%) incident cases of CSA-AKI were identified. The level of preoperative Se concentration in patients with CSA-AKI was significant lower than that in patients without CSA-AKI. The higher preoperative Se level was significantly associated with decreased risk of CSA-AKI (adjusted OR 0.91, 95% CI: 0.87-0.99). Dose-response relationship curve revealed a nearly L-shape correlation between serum Se selenium levels and incident CSA-AKI. CONCLUSION Our study suggested that a higher level of serum Se was significantly associated with lower risk of CSA-AKI. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify the causal relationship between serum Se level and incident CSA-AKI.

Abstract
Aflatoxins are harmful natural contaminants found in foods and are known to be hepatotoxic. However, recent studies have linked chronic consumption of aflatoxins to nephrotoxicity in both animals and humans. Here, we conducted a systematic review of active compounds, crude extracts, herbal formulations, and probiotics against aflatoxin-induced renal dysfunction, highlighting their mechanisms of action in both in vitro and in vivo studies. The natural products and dietary supplements discussed in this study alleviated aflatoxin-induced renal oxidative stress, inflammation, tissue damage, and markers of renal function, mostly in animal models. Therefore, the information provided in this review may improve the management of kidney disease associated with aflatoxin exposure and potentially aid in animal feed supplementation. However, future research is warranted to translate the outcomes of this study into clinical use in kidney patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Kidney diseases are one of the common diseases, which are one of the main causes of death in society and impose costs on the health system of the society. A growing body of evidence has well documented that inflammatory responses and oxidative damage play a significant role in the progress of various kidney diseases. METHODS This study examined whether selenium (Sel) could prevent the detrimental influences of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in rats. Four groups of Wistar rats were considered: control, LPS (1 mg/kg, i.p., for 14 days), LPS-Sel 1 (0.1 mg/kg, i.p., for 14 days), and LPS-Sel 2 (0.2 mg/kg, i.p., for 14 days). RESULTS Sel treatment markedly attenuated oxidative stress damage in the kidney tissue in LPS-induced renal toxicity. Generally, the administration of Sel resulted in improved antioxidant indicators such as catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities, or total thiol content, and decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) in the kidney tissue. It also decreased interleukin-6 in kidney homogenates. Furthermore, Se treatment significantly inhibited the elevation of serum biochemical markers of kidney function including serum, BUN, and creatinine. CONCLUSIONS Based on the findings of the current study, it seems that the administration of Sel to LPS-treated rats improves renal function by reducing oxidative damage and inflammation in kidney tissue. However, more research is needed to reveal the accurate mechanisms for the effect of Sel on renal outcomes of LPS in human subjects.

Synergistic effects of T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency exacerbate renal fibrosis through modulation of the ERα/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 269:115748. [PMID: 38029582 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
As common pathogenic agents in the world and widely distributed globally, T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency might exacerbate toxic effects by combined exposure, posing a dramatic health hazard to humans and animals. In this study, we aim to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of renal fibrosis triggered by T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency exposure. A total of thirty-two rats are randomly divided into the normal control, T-2 toxin, selenium deficiency, and combined intervention groups. T-2 toxin (100 ng/g) is intragastric gavaged to the rats in compliance with the body weight. Both the standard (containing selenium 0.20 mg/Kg) and selenium-deficient (containing selenium 0.02 mg/Kg) diets were manufactured adhering to the AIN-93 formula. After 12 weeks of intervention, renal tissue ultrastructural and pathological changes, inflammatory infiltration, epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition are evaluated, respectively. Metabolomics analysis is conducted to explore the underlying pathology of renal fibrosis, followed by the validation of potential mechanisms at gene and protein levels. T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency exposure results in podocyte foot process elongation or fusion, tubular vacuolization and dilatation, and collagen deposition in the kidneys. Additionally, it also increases inflammatory infiltration, EMT conversion, and ECM deposition. Metabolomics analysis suggests that T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency influence amino acid and cholesterol metabolism, respectively, and the estrogen signaling pathway is probably engaged in renal fibrosis progression. Moreover, T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency are found to regulate the expressions of the ERα/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. In conclusion, T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency synergistically exacerbate renal fibrosis through regulating the ERα/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, and inflammatory infiltration, EMT and ECM deposition are involved in this process.

Exploring the association between two groups of metals with potentially opposing renal effects and renal function in middle-aged and older adults: Evidence from an explainable machine learning method. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 269:115812. [PMID: 38091680 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115812] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 11/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Machine learning models have promising applications in capturing the complex relationship between mixtures of exposures and outcomes. OBJECTIVE Our study aimed at introducing an explainable machine learning (EML) model to assess the association between metal mixtures with potentially opposing renal effects and renal function in middle-aged and older adults. METHODS This study extracted data from two cycle years of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Participants aged 45 years or older with complete data on six metals (lead, cadmium, manganese, mercury, and selenium) and related covariates were enrolled. The EML model was developed by the optimized machine learning model together with Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) to assess the chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk with metal mixtures. The results from EML were further compared in detail with multiple logistic regression (MLR) and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR). RESULTS After adjusting for included covariates, MLR pointed out the lead and arsenic were generally positively associated with CKD, but manganese had a negative association. In the BKMR analysis, each metal was found to have a non-linear association with the risk of CKD, and interactions can exist between metals, especially for arsenic and lead. The EML ranked the feature importance: lead, manganese, arsenic and selenium were close behind in importance after gender, age or BMI for participants with CKD. Strong interactions between mercury and lead, manganese and cadmium and arsenic and manganese were identified by partial dependence plot (PDP) of SHAP and bivariate exposure-response effect plots of BKMR. The EML model determined the "trigger point" at which the risk of CKD abruptly changed. CONCLUSION Co-exposure to metals with different nephrotoxicity could have different joint association with renal function, and EML can be a powerful method for studying complex exposure mixtures.

Higher Levels of Blood Selenium are Associated with Higher Levels of Serum Lipid Profile in US Adults with CKD: Results from NHANES 2013-2018. Biol Trace Elem Res 2023; 201:5501-5511.

Abstract
The association between selenium (Se) and lipid profile has been controversial in different populations, and the aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between Se and lipid profile in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). A total of 861 US adult patients with CKD (male: female = 404:457) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. We used smoothing spline plots and multivariate binary logistic regression analyses to elucidate the relationships between blood Se and lipid profile. Multivariate adjusted smoothing spline plots showed that higher levels of blood Se were associated with higher levels of serum remnant cholesterol (RC), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels. Threshold and saturation effects were also observed between serum RC, TC, TG, LDL-C, and blood Se. In multivariate binary logistic regression analyses, the fully adjusted model showed that as blood Se increases by every 1 µg/L, the OR of high RC, high TG and high LDL-C in patients was 1.012 (95% CI: 1.001, 1.023 P = 0.046), 1.011 (95% CI: 1.001, 1.021 P = 0.043) and 1.009 (95% CI: 1.003, 1.016 P = 0.012), respectively. Furthermore, stratified analyses showed that the associations between blood Se and high RC/high TG were significantly stronger in patients aged < 65 years. Higher levels of blood Se were associated with increased serum lipid profile levels and increased risk of high RC, high TC, high LDL-C, and low HDL-C dyslipidemia in adult patients with CKD in the US. However, the real associations between blood Se and lipid profiles in this population should be verified in future prospective and randomized trials.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and selenium (Se) deficiency on the growth and glucose metabolism of offspring. Female C57BL/6J mice were divided into four groups as follows: a control group, a GDM group, a Se deficiency group, and a GDM with Se deficiency group. GDM animal models were established via S961. Pregnant mice fed their offspring until weaning. Then, offspring continued to be fed with a basic diet until adulthood. Body weight and fasting blood glucose were measured weekly. Se content, oxidative stress indicators, and the protein expression of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were detected. GDM increased susceptibility to obesity in lactating offspring, with gender differences observed in adult offspring. The effect of Se deficiency on SOD activity only appeared in female offspring during adulthood but was shown in male offspring during weaning though it disappeared during adulthood. GDM and Se deficiency increased the risk of abnormal glucose metabolism in female offspring from weaning to adulthood but gradually decreased in male offspring. The influence on the expression of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway-related proteins showed the same trend. GDM and Se deficiency affected the growth and glucose metabolism of offspring through oxidative stress and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway-related proteins, and gender differences existed.

Abstract
Objectives: There is growing evidence that antioxidant-rich diets protect against chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the relationship between the Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI), an important measure of an antioxidant diet, and CKD has received little attention. Therefore, here we investigated the relationship between the CDAI and CKD through a cross-sectional analysis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018 data. Methods: The CDAI was calculated based on the intake of six dietary antioxidants. A survey-based multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to analyze the independent relationship between the CDAI and CKD. Weighted multivariate regression and subgroup analyses were conducted to explore the relationship between the CDAI and CKD. Results: A total of 6874 NHANES participants represented 181.9 million non-institutionalized US residents (mean age, 46.43 ± 0.38 years; 49.87% female; 40.62% non-Hispanic white; 20.24% non-Hispanic black; and 13.94% Mexican American). The weighted linear regression model with full adjustment for confounding variables was -0.0155 (-0.0417, 0.0107) for Q2 (P for trend <0.0001), -0.0052 (-0.0346, 0.0242) for Q3 (P for trend <0.0001), and -0.0305 (-0.0491, -0.0120) for Q4 (P for trend = 0.0094) upon comparison with the lowest quartile of the CDAI. None of the interactions in any subgroup analysis were statistically significant except for individuals with a history of diabetes or the aged population (≥60 years) (P for interaction <0.05). Conclusions: The CDAI was positively associated with a lower prevalence of CKD in adults in the United States. Further large-scale prospective studies are required to analyze the role of the CDAI in CKD.

Arch Toxicol 2023; 97:2499-2574. [PMID: 37597078 PMCID: PMC10475008 DOI: 10.1007/s00204-023-03562-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 148] [Impact Index Per Article: 148.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/21/2023]
Abstract
A physiological level of oxygen/nitrogen free radicals and non-radical reactive species (collectively known as ROS/RNS) is termed oxidative eustress or "good stress" and is characterized by low to mild levels of oxidants involved in the regulation of various biochemical transformations such as carboxylation, hydroxylation, peroxidation, or modulation of signal transduction pathways such as Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade, phosphoinositide-3-kinase, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and other processes. Increased levels of ROS/RNS, generated from both endogenous (mitochondria, NADPH oxidases) and/or exogenous sources (radiation, certain drugs, foods, cigarette smoking, pollution) result in a harmful condition termed oxidative stress ("bad stress"). Although it is widely accepted, that many chronic diseases are multifactorial in origin, they share oxidative stress as a common denominator. Here we review the importance of oxidative stress and the mechanisms through which oxidative stress contributes to the pathological states of an organism. Attention is focused on the chemistry of ROS and RNS (e.g. superoxide radical, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, peroxyl radicals, nitric oxide, peroxynitrite), and their role in oxidative damage of DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Quantitative and qualitative assessment of oxidative stress biomarkers is also discussed. Oxidative stress contributes to the pathology of cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, neurological disorders (Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, Down syndrome), psychiatric diseases (depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder), renal disease, lung disease (chronic pulmonary obstruction, lung cancer), and aging. The concerted action of antioxidants to ameliorate the harmful effect of oxidative stress is achieved by antioxidant enzymes (Superoxide dismutases-SODs, catalase, glutathione peroxidase-GPx), and small molecular weight antioxidants (vitamins C and E, flavonoids, carotenoids, melatonin, ergothioneine, and others). Perhaps one of the most effective low molecular weight antioxidants is vitamin E, the first line of defense against the peroxidation of lipids. A promising approach appears to be the use of certain antioxidants (e.g. flavonoids), showing weak prooxidant properties that may boost cellular antioxidant systems and thus act as preventive anticancer agents. Redox metal-based enzyme mimetic compounds as potential pharmaceutical interventions and sirtuins as promising therapeutic targets for age-related diseases and anti-aging strategies are discussed.

Abstract
The relationship between blood selenium level and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) had been explored in previous studies. However, there are few studies about the correlation between blood selenium level and eGFR in the elderly population. This study was undertaken to investigate the relationship between blood selenium level and eGFR in the aged. The present study was a cross-sectional study and used the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2018 dataset. We investigated the association between blood selenium level and eGFR among participants aged 60 years or older. Totally, 4423 participants were enrolled, and the average age was 69.7 ± 6.9 years old. The means of blood selenium level and eGFR were 192.9 ± 29.5 ug/L and 74.1 ± 19.9 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. After adjusting potential confounders (age, gender, body mass index, ethnicity, marital status, education, family income to poverty ratio, smoking, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus), non-linear relationship was detected between blood selenium level and eGFR, whose inflection point was 202 ug/L. The effect sizes (β) and the confidence intervals on the left and right sides of inflection point were 0.07 (0.04 to 0.11) and 0.01 (- 0.02 to 0.04), respectively. In addition, subgroup analysis showed that blood selenium level was positively associated with eGFR, and the test for interactions was not statistically significant in various subgroups. In conclusion, the relationship between blood selenium level and eGFR is non-linear. Blood selenium level is positively related with eGFR when blood selenium level is less than 202 ug/L.

Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that exposure to a single toxic metal can cause renal tubular damage, while evidence about the effects of multimetal exposure on renal tubular damage is relatively limited. We aimed to evaluate the relationships of multimetal coexposure with renal tubular damage in adults in heavy metal-polluted rural regions of China. A cross-sectional study of 1918 adults in China's heavy metal-contaminated rural regions was conducted. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to measure the plasma levels of 18 metals in participants, and immune turbidimetry was used to measure sensitive biological indicators, reflecting renal tubular damage (including retinol-binding protein and β2-microglobulin). Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) penalized regression analysis, logistic and linear regression analysis, restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression analysis and the Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) method were used to explore associations of multimetal coexposure with renal tubular damage risk or renal tubular damage indicators. Plasma selenium, cadmium, arsenic, and iron were identified as the main plasma metals associated with renal tubular damage risk after dimensionality reduction. Multimetal regression models showed that selenium was positively associated, and iron was negatively associated with renal tubular damage risk or its biological indicators. Multimetal RCS analyses additionally revealed a non-linear relationship of selenium with renal tubular damage risk. The BKMR models showed that the metal mixtures were positively associated with biological indicators of renal tubular damage when the metal mixtures were above the 50th percentile of concentration. Our findings indicated that natural exposure to high levels of multimetal mixtures increases the risk of renal tubular damage. Under the conditions of multimetal exposure, selenium was positively associated, and iron was negatively associated with renal tubular damage risk or its biological indicators.

Abstract
The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes COVID-19, a respiratory disorder. Various organ injuries have been reported in response to this virus, including kidney injury and, in particular, kidney tubular injury. It has been discovered that infection with the virus does not only cause new kidney disease but also increases treatment difficulty and mortality rates in people with kidney diseases. In individuals hospitalized with COVID-19, urinary metabolites from several metabolic pathways are used to distinguish between patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) and those without. This review summarizes the pathogenesis, pathophysiology, treatment strategies, and role of metabolomics in relation to AKI in COVID-19 patients. Metabolomics is likely to play a greater role in predicting outcomes for patients with kidney disease and COVID-19 with varying levels of severity in the near future as data on metabolic profiles expand rapidly. Here, we also discuss the correlation between COVID-19 and kidney diseases and the available metabolomics approaches.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Are renal changes occurring post-nephrectomy accompanied by cognitive changes, and does early administration of zinc supplements such as ZnSO4 to uninephrectomized rats ameliorate the renal and cognitive changes if present? What is the main finding and its importance? Uninephrectomy-induced renal changes were accompanied by species-atypical behaviour in rats in both Morris water maze and T maze tests, together with hypozincaemia and hippocampal inflammatory and oxidative changes. Early zinc administration to uninephrectomized rats ameliorated the renal, behavioural, hippocampal and serum zinc changes. ABSTRACT Cognitive impairment is increasingly recognized as an important consequence of kidney disease in humans. Kidney donation is a safe procedure but is known to increase the long-term risk of cardiovascular and kidney disease. Whether kidney donation impairs cognitive function is not known. In the present study, we examined whether the renal changes occurring post-nephrectomy were accompanied by cognitive changes as well, and whether early administration of zinc supplements such as ZnSO4 to uninephrectomized (UNX) rats could ameliorate the renal and cognitive changes if present. The present study included 30 adult male Wistar rats that were randomly assigned to three groups (n = 10 per group): sham-operated rats, UNX and UNX treated with ZnSO4 for 20 weeks. Before termination, rats were subjected to 24-h urine collection and behavioural testing with the Morris water maze and T maze tests. UNX induced significant proteinuria, renal functional, fibrotic and oxidative changes, as well as increased renal desmin expression. UNX rats also showed significant behavioural changes indicating spatial learning and memory affection, together with decreased hippocampal brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and antioxidant capacity, and increased glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), nitric oxide and malondialdehyde. In addition, UNX induced significant hyperglycaemia and dyslipidaemia, as well as significant reduction in serum zinc, copper and selenium. Early administration of ZnSO4 starting 1 week post-nephrectomy significantly ameliorated renal and behavioural changes, as well as hippocampal oxidative, BDNF and GFAP changes. Additionally, Zn recovered serum changes of triglycerides, cholesterol, zinc and copper. Therefore, early administration of zinc to humans undergoing nephrectomy may be of benefit and should be considered in human trials.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a non-traumatic hemorrhage caused by the rupture of blood vessels in the brain parenchyma, with an acute mortality rate of 30%‒40%. Currently, available treatment options that include surgery are not promising, and new approaches are urgently needed. Nanotechnology offers new prospects in ICH because of its unique benefits. In this review, we summarize the applications of various nanomaterials in ICH. Nanomaterials not only enhance the therapeutic effects of drugs as delivery carriers but also contribute to several facets after ICH such as repressing detrimental neuroinflammation, resisting oxidative stress, reducing cell death, and improving functional deficits.

Abstract
Significance: Endothelial barrier damage, which is in part caused by excess production of reactive oxygen, halogen and nitrogen species (ROHNS), especially peroxynitrite (ONOO-), is a major event in early sepsis and, with leukocyte hyperactivation, part of the generalized dysregulated immune response to infection, which may even become a complex maladaptive state. Selenoenzymes have major antioxidant functions. Their synthesis is related to the need to limit deleterious oxidant redox cycling by small selenocompounds, which may be of therapeutic cytotoxic interest. Plasma selenoprotein-P is crucial for selenium transport from the liver to the tissues and for antioxidant endothelial protection, especially against ONOO-. Above micromolar concentrations, sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) becomes cytotoxic, with a lower cytotoxicity threshold in activated cells, which has led to cancer research. Recent Advances: Plasma selenium (<2% of total body selenium) is mainly contained in selenoprotein-P, and concentrations decrease rapidly in the early phase of sepsis, because of increased selenoprotein-P binding and downregulation of hepatic synthesis and excretion. At low concentrations, Na2SeO3 acts as a selenium donor, favoring selenoprotein-P synthesis in physiology, but probably not in the acute phase of sepsis. Critical Issues: The cytotoxic effects of Na2SeO3 against hyperactivated leukocytes, especially the most immature forms that liberate ROHNS, may be beneficial, but they may also be harmful for activated endothelial cells. Endothelial protection against ROHNS by selenoprotein-P may reduce Na2SeO3 toxicity, which is increased in sepsis. Future Direction: The combination of selenoprotein-P for endothelial protection and the cytotoxic effects of Na2SeO3 against hyperactivated leukocytes may be a promising intervention for early sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous observational studies have shown that there is a controversial association between selenium levels and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aim was to assess the causal relationship between selenium levels and CKD using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. METHODS We used the two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method to analyze the causal role of selenium levels on CKD risk. The variants associated with selenium levels were extracted from a large genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of circulating selenium levels (n = 5477) and toenail selenium levels (n = 4162) in the European population. Outcome data were from the largest GWAS meta-analysis of European-ancestry participants for kidney function to date. Inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was used as the main analysis and a series of sensitivity analyses were carried out to detect potential violations of MR assumptions. RESULTS The MR analysis results indicate that the genetically predicted selenium levels were associated with decreased estimated glomerular filtration (eGFR) (effect = -0.0042, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.0053-0.0031, p = 2.186 × 10-13) and increased blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (effect = 0.0029, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.0006-0.0052, p = 0.0136) with no pleiotropy detected. CONCLUSIONS The MR study indicated that an increased level of selenium is a causative factor for kidney function impairment.

Abstract
Background: Micronutrients are essential in maintaining normal human physiology. Data regarding the association between micronutrients and renal outcomes in chronic kidney disease (CKD) are lacking. Methods: This prospective observational cohort study enrolled 261 patients with CKD stages 1−5 and 30 subjects with normal renal function. Baseline serum zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), chromium, manganese, and copper, and laboratory tests were performed at enrolment. The primary endpoint was the presence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring long-term renal replacement therapy. Results: The median follow-up periods of renal and non-renal survivals were 67.78 and 29.03 months, respectively. Multiple linear regression showed that Zn and Se (β ± SE: 24.298 ± 8.616, p = 0.005; 60.316 ± 21.875, p = 0.006, respectively) levels were positively correlated with renal function. Time to ESRD was significantly longer for those with Zn levels ≥1287.24 ng/g and Se levels ≥189.28 ng/g (both p < 0.001). Cox regression analysis identified a higher Zn level as an independently negative predictor of ESRD after adjusting for renal function (hazard ratio, 0.450, p = 0.019). Conclusion: Serum Se and Zn concentrations are positively associated with renal function and better renal outcomes. A higher Zn concentration could independently predict better renal survival.

[PMID: 35807874 PMCID: PMC9269073 DOI: 10.3390/nu14132695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The association between selenium and chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains controversial. Population studies with large samples facilitate the reliability of conclusions. Objective: In this study, we aimed to describe the prevalence of a CKD association with selenium intake in middle-aged and older Chinese. Methods: Data for this study were obtained from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS). A total of 5381 participants (aged ≥ 45) with biochemical test data were included in the study. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association between diet selenium intake (quartile) and the prevalence of CKD. Results: A total of 942 (17.01%) participants had CKD. The prevalence of CKD was 23.33%, 20.32%, 14.98%, and 9.25% among participants with average selenium intakes of 21.5 ± 4.82, 33.1 ± 2.79, 43.8 ± 3.70, and 67.0 ± 13.97 µg/day, respectively. In the fully adjusted model (Model 3), across the quartiles of selenium intake, the ORs for the prevalence of CKD were 1.00, 1.09 (95% CI 0.69–1.73), 0.82 (95% CI 0.49–1.38), and 0.43 (95% CI 0.22–0.85). The protein intake had a certain diagnostic significance for the selenium intake. Conclusions: An adequate selenium intake may have a positive effect on CKD. The influence of individual weight and location on the effect of selenium on CKD needs to be further explored.

Abstract
Fibrosis is a common pathological outcome of chronic injuries, characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix components in organs, as seen in most chronic inflammatory diseases. At present, there is an increasing tendency of the morbidity and mortality of diseases caused by fibrosis, but the treatment measures for fibrosis are still limited. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) belongs to the FGF19 subfamily, which also has the name endocrine FGFs because of their endocrine manner. In recent years, it has been found that plasma FGF21 level is significantly correlated with fibrosis progression. Furthermore, there is evidence that FGF21 has a pronounced antifibrotic effect in a variety of fibrotic diseases. This review summarizes the biological effects of FGF21 and discusses what is currently known about this factor and fibrosis disease, highlighting emerging insights that warrant further research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between serum selenium level and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is controversial. The purpose is to update and summarize previous studies to understand the relationship in more detail. METHODS PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Web of science, CNKI, WANFANG DATA and Cqvip were searched for studies published up to 3 September 2021. The random-effects model was used to measure the combined estimation. The overall effect was reported in a standard mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI). All data were analysed by Review Manager 5.4. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies involving 1588 patients with GDM and 2450 healthy pregnant women contributed to this meta-analysis. Selenium level was significantly lower in women with GDM than those without GDM (SMD = -1.29; 95% CI: -1.60 to -0.97, p < 0.00001). Subgroup analyses showed that such trend was consistent within the non-European population (Asia: SMD = -1.44; 95% CI: -1.79 to -1.08, p < 0.00001; Africa: SMD = -2.62; 95% CI: -4.50 to -0.74, p = 0.006) and in the second and third trimesters (the second trimester: SMD = -1.41; 95% CI: -1.82 to -0.99, p < 0.00001; the third trimester: SMD = -1.54; 95% CI: -2.09 to -0.98, p < 0.00001), but not within the European population (SMD = -0.47; 95% CI: -1.09 to 0.16, p = 0.14) or in the first trimester (SMD = -0.52; 95% CI: -1.13 to 0.10, p = 0.10). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis showed that the serum selenium level of patients with GDM was lower than that in healthy pregnant women, especially within the non-European population and in the second and third trimesters.

Abstract
Renal fibrosis is the final result of the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Earlier studies confirmed that selenium (Se) displays a close association with kidney diseases. However, the correlation between Se and fibrosis has rarely been explored. Thus, this article mainly aimed to investigate the effect of Se deficiency on renal fibrosis and the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Twenty BALB/c mice were fed a diet containing 0.02-mg/kg Se (Se-deficient diet) or 0.18-mg/kg Se (standard diet) for 20 weeks. A human glomerular mesangial cell (HMC) cell line was transfected with lentiviral TRNAU1AP-shRNA vector to establish a stable Se deficiency model in vitro. As indicated in this study, the glutathione (GSH) content in the Se-deficient group displayed an obvious decline compared with that in the control group, whereas the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) was obviously elevated. The results of Masson staining showed fibrosis around the renal tubules, and the results of immunohistochemistry showed that the area of positive fibronectin expression increased. In the Se-deficient group, the levels of collagen I, collagen III, matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), and other fibrosis-related proteins changed significantly in vivo and in vitro. Compared with the control group, the TRNAU1AP-shRNA group showed markedly reduced cell proliferation and migration abilities. Our data indicate that Se deficiency can cause kidney damage and renal fibrosis. Furthermore, the Wnt pathway is critical for the development of tissue and organ fibrosis. The data of this study demonstrated that the expression of Wnt5a, β-catenin, and dishevelled 1 (Dvl-1) was significantly upregulated in the Se-deficient group. Therefore, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway may play an important role in renal fibrosis caused by Se deficiency.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, characterized by low bone mass and a disruption of bone microarchitecture, is traditionally treated using drugs or lifestyle modifications. Recently, several preclinical and clinical studies have investigated the effects of selenium on bone health, although the results are controversial. Selenium, an important trace element, is required for selenoprotein synthesis and acts crucially for proper growth and skeletal development. However, the intake of an optimum amount of selenium is critical, as both selenium deficiency and toxicity are hazardous for health. In this review, we have systematically analyzed the existing literature in this field to determine whether dietary or serum selenium concentrations are associated with bone health. In addition, the mode of administration of selenium as a supplement for treating bone disease is important. We have also highlighted the importance of using green-synthesized selenium nanoparticles as therapeutics for bone disease. Novel nanobiotechnology will be a bridgehead for clinical applications of trace elements and natural products.

Abstract
AIM Nephrotoxicity is the major limiting factor for the clinical use of vancomycin (VCM) for treatment against multi-resistant Gram-positive bacteria. The present research aimed to investigate the ability of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) to protect against VCM-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. MAIN METHODS Experimental rats were divided into five groups; the first was the normal control, the second was treated with VCM (200 mg/kg twice/day, i.p.) for 7 days. The third, fourth, and fifth groups were treated orally with SeNPs (0.5, 1, and 2 mg/kg/day); respectively. SeNPs were administered for 12 days before VCM, 1 week simultaneously with VCM, and for another 1 week after its administration. KEY FINDINGS Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) were significantly increased in kidney tissue after VCM administration. Expression of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), caspase 3 and caspase 9 in kidney tissue was significantly increased, while the antioxidant enzymes, mitochondrial complexes, the ATP levels and B-cell lymphoma protein 2 (Bcl-2) were decreased in kidney in the VCM-treated rats compared to the normal control group. Treatment with SeNPs significantly decreased levels of MDA, iNOS, NO, TNF-α, and KIM-1 in the kidney tissue. Administration of SeNPs also downregulated the expression of the proapoptotic agents and enhanced the activities of the antioxidant enzymes and the mitochondrial enzyme complexes in the kidney. SIGNIFICANCE SeNPs alleviated VCM-induced nephrotoxicity through their anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and mitochondrial protective effects.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetes, and which factors affecting Se concentration in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are unknown. This study aimed to explore the factors influencing Se concentration in community-dwelling individuals with T2DM. A total of 176 patients with T2DM were involved, and their general information was collected through a self-designed questionnaire. Venous blood samples and hair samples were collected to detect Se concentration and biochemical parameters. Multiple linear regression and binary logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the factors influencing Se concentration in patients with T2DM. The factors influencing selenoprotein P concentration in patients with T2DM included alkaline phosphatase (β = - 1.373; 95% CI: 0.087-0.736; P = 0.012), systolic blood pressure (SBP; β = - 0.047; 95% CI: 0.930-0.978; P < 0.001), the duration of T2DM (β = - 0.074; 95% CI: 0.877-0.983; P = 0.011), and clinical complications (β = 1.237; 95% CI: 1.465-8.109; P = 0.005). The factors influencing glutathione peroxidase activity in patients with T2DM were creatinine (CREA; β = - 0.378; P < 0.001), uric acid (β = - 0.069; P = 0.009), body mass index (β = - 2.177; P = 0.002), SBP (β = - 0.275; P = 0.031), and medical payment (β = 29.160; P < 0.001). The factors influencing serum Se concentration in patients with T2DM were albumin (β = - 1.391; 95% CI: 0.065-0.959; P = 0.043) and CREA (β = - 1.482; 95% CI: 0.072-0.718; P = 0.012). The factors influencing hair Se concentration in patients with T2DM were smoking (β = - 1.151; 95% CI: 0.133-0.755; P = 0.010), drinking (β = 1.366; 95% CI: 1.191-12.909; P = 0.025), and hair dyeing (β = - 1.113; 95% CI: 0.124-0.867; P = 0.025). In conclusion, the Se concentration in patients with T2DM was mainly affected by liver and renal function. When liver and/or renal function was impaired, the Se concentration in patients with T2DM was decreased.

Abstract
Environmental exposure to arsenic is a major public health challenge worldwide. Growing evidence indicates that coal-burning arsenic can cause hepatic oxidative damage. However, the value of Rosa roxburghii Tratt (RRT) with antioxidant properties on arsenic-caused hepatic oxidative damage has never been elucidated yet. In this study, the animals were exposed to coal-burning arsenic (10 mg/kg bw) for 90 days and the result showed a loss of body weight, impaired liver function and liver diseases, increased hepatic oxidative damage and metabolic disorder of multiple elements including selenium, copper, zinc which were related to synthesis of antioxidant enzymes. Another finding is that RRT restored the abnormal liver function and alleviated the procedures of liver diseases of arsenic poisoning rats. In addition, it could also effectively reduce the degree of oxidative damage in serum and liver, and restore the activity of some antioxidant enzymes. Importantly, RRT reversed the content of most disordered elements caused by arsenic in liver and reduced the excretion of several essential elements in urine, including selenium, copper and zinc. Our study provides some limited evidence that RRT can alleviate coal-burning arsenic-induced liver damage induced by regulating elemental metabolic disorders and liver oxidation and antioxidant balance. The study provides a scientific basis for further studies of the causes of the arsenic-induced liver damage, and effective intervention strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common neurological crisis leading to high mortality and morbidity. Oxidative stress-induced secondary injury plays a critical role in neurological deterioration. Previously, we synthesized a porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposite and identified their therapeutic role in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Whether this nanocomposite is neuroprotective remains to be elucidated. METHODS A porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposite was synthesized, and its biosafety was determined using a CCK-8 assay. The neuroprotective effect was evaluated by TUNEL staining, and intracellular ROS were detected with a DCFH-DA probe in SH-SY5Y cells exposed to hemin. Furthermore, the effect of the nanocomposite on cell apoptosis, brain edema and blood-brain barrier permeability were evaluated in a collagenase-induced ICH mouse model. The potential mechanism was also explored. RESULTS The results demonstrated that Se@SiO2 treatment significantly improved neurological function, increased glutathione peroxidase activity and downregulated malonaldehyde levels. The proportion of apoptotic cells, brain edema and blood-brain barrier permeability were reduced significantly in ICH mice treated with Se@SiO2 compared to vehicle-treated mice. In vitro, Se@SiO2 protected SH-SY5Y cells from hemin-induced apoptosis by preventing intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation. CONCLUSION These results suggested that the porous Se@SiO2 nanocomposite exerted neuroprotection by suppressing oxidative stress. Se@SiO2 may be a potential candidate for the clinical treatment of ICH and oxidative stress-related brain injuries.

Abstract
Previous studies have raised concerns that kidney disease is often closely related to low serum Se levels in patients and that hyposelenemia may increase the vulnerability of patients to complications. However, few studies examining renal injury caused by Se deficiency have been conducted. To determine the effects of a selenium-deficient diet on renal function, a mouse model was fed a selenium-deficient diet (0.02 mg Se/kg) for 20 weeks. Meanwhile, mice in the control group (selenium-adequate) were fed a standard diet (0.18 mg Se/kg). The cellular models were established by lentiviral Trnau1ap-shRNA vectors transfected into mouse podocyte (MPC5) and mouse renal tubular epithelial (TCMK1) cell lines. Significant increases in serum creatinine levels and urinary protein/creatinine ratios were accompanied by increased MDA content in the Se-deficient group compared to the control group. The morphological observations of tissues showed widespread inflammation and ultrastructural changes in the Se-deficient group, such as swollen mitochondria and extensive podocyte fusion and renal tubular microvilli shedding. In addition, the expression of COXIV and cytochrome c was significantly downregulated in the Se-deficient group. Importantly, the mRNA levels of silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α) and the protein levels of SIRT1 were increased in the Se-deficient group compared with the normal control group. Our data indicate that Se deficiency induces renal injury in mice. The elevated oxidative stress caused by Se deficiency may result in mitochondrial damage, which might affect renal function. Moreover, the SIRT1/PGC1α axis likely plays an important role in the compensatory mechanism of mitochondrial dysfunction.

Abstract
Arsenic and selenium elements play extremely important roles in organisms. Too high As concentration in blood may lead to functional disorders within organs, including cancer. Arsenic is designated as a Group 1 human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer that has established causal role of arsenic in cancers of the urinary bladder, lung, and skin in humans. In contrast, Se is believed to be the antioxidant trace element that is important in the biological defense against oxidative damage. We tested the hypothesis that immunosuppressive treatment based on mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), that is one of the most commonly used drug by renal transplant recipients, affects arsenic and selenium concentration in erythrocytes of renal transplant recipients. Current research was undertaken due to the fact that there are few studies on the concentration of chemical elements in the erythrocytes in kidney patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs. Monitoring of the concentration of chemical elements in the blood in patients who underwent kidney transplantation could be helpful, since chemical elements play an important role in many biological processes and it seems to be crucial in the prevention of cancer to which renal transplant recipients are more often exposed.The material consisted of blood from 115 renal transplant recipients of the Department of Nephrology, Transplantology, and Internal Medicine of Independent Public Clinical Hospital No. 2, Pomeranian Medical University, in the city of Szczecin in northwestern Poland. Arsenic and selenium levels in erythrocytes were quantified by inductively coupled mass spectroscopy.Men MMF+ had significantly higher As concentration than men MMF-. Se concentration was significantly higher in younger patients compared with older patients. The patients with lower creatinine level who used MMF had significantly higher As than MMF- patients. Patients whose therapy was based on MMF, cyclosporine A and glucocorticosteroids exhibited significantly higher concentration of As compared with patients whose regimen was based on MMF, tacrolimus, and glucocorticosteroids.This is the first study that demonstrates that regimen based on mycophenolate mofetil affects As and Se concentrations in erythrocytes in renal transplant recipients.

Abstract
In this study, we critically review the literature concerning the relation of Mg, Fe, Zn, Cu and Se and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Elemental status is estimated using peripheral blood parameters, hair, urine, daily intake and response to supplementation. The observed associations between concentration levels of the elements Mg, Fe, Zn, Cu and Se and ADHD symptoms are contradictory. This is partly due to the heterogeneity and complexity of the disorder. As a trend, lower ferritin and zinc levels can be observed. However, this correlation is not causative, as illustrated by placebo-controlled trials reporting conflicting evidence on the efficacy of supplementation. Well-defined studies on changes in concentration levels of the elements in relation to ADHD symptoms before and after treatment with therapeutics it will be possible to shed more light on the significance of these elements in this behavioral disorder. The discussion on whether a change in concentration of an element is cause or consequence of ADHD is not within the scope of this article.

Abstract
Associations between plasma elements and chronic kidney disease (CKD) among the elderly are poorly understood. In this cross-sectional study, we explored the associations between exposure to four plasma elements and CKD in elderly people aged ≥90 years in longevity areas in China. We measured plasma selenium, manganese, iron, and zinc levels and used logistic regression models to investigate associations between CKD and these four plasma elements after adjusting for confounding factors among 461 participants aged ≥90 years in the fifth wave of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Study (CLHLS) conducted in 2009. The median plasma selenium, manganese, iron, and zinc levels were 120.51 μg/L, 26.64 μg/L, 2880.52 μg/L, and 1882.42 μg/L in the CKD group and 108.76 μg/L, 31.55 μg/L, 4512.00 μg/L, and 2294.24 μg/L in the non-CKD group, respectively. Single- and multiple-element multivariable models showed that plasma manganese, iron, and zinc were negatively associated with CKD. In the multiple-element multivariable models, the adjusted odds ratios for CKD were 0.48 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.27-0.86) for the second highest quartile of manganese, 0.37 (95% CI: 0.21-0.68) and 0.36 (95% CI: 0.19-0.65) for the third highest and highest quartiles of iron, respectively, and 0.53 (95% CI: 0.29-0.94) for the highest quartile of zinc, compared with the lowest quartiles of these three elements. Plasma manganese, iron, and zinc levels protect against CKD in elderly people aged ≥90 years in longevity areas.

Abstract
Activation of the renin angiotensin system and renal oxidative stress (OS) are critical contributors in the progression of chronic kidney disease(CKD). Recent studies have confirmed that the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2-angiotensin (1-7)-Mas(ACE2/Ang(1-7)/Mas) axis, the important components of renin angiotensin system, protected kidneys against damage by antagonizing angiotensin II and attenuating OS in rats with several nephropathy models, but its effect needs to be further evaluated in clinic. In this study, we aimed to detected serum ACE2/Ang (1-7)/Mas axis, OS conditions and described its clinical associations in patients with CKD at different stages.A total of 48 patients with CKD and 6 healthy controls (CT) were enrolled, and serum angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), ACE2, Ang (1-7), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were determined by ELISA. Serum extracellular glutathione peroxidase(eGSH-Px) activity and renal functions were determined by the biochemical method.Serum ACE and ACE2 levels in CKD stages 3 to 5 and serum Ang(1-7) levels in CKD stages 4 to 5 without Ang II receptor blockers treatment significantly increased compared to those in the CT group. However, ACE2 was decreased and Ang(1-7) level increased in early CKD stage with Ang II receptor blockers treatment. Higher serum 8-OHdG levels and lower eGSH-Px activity were noted in CKD stages 4 to 5. Serum 8-OHdG level was correlated with serum ACE2, Ang(1-7) expression. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was correlated with serum ACE, ACE2, Ang(1-7), 8-OHdG, Hcy levels and serum eGSH-Px activity. Multiple-regression analysis eGFR was predicted by ACE, Hcy, eGSH-Px, and also can be predicted by ACE2, Ang(1-7), Hcy in CT subgroup.The ACE2/Ang(1-7)/Mas axis is associated with OS, and both them were associated with eGFR in the progression of CKD. Activation of ACE2/Ang(1-7)/Mas axis may have renoprotective effect and can be a potential therapeutic target in patients with early CKD stages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The growing morbidity and mortality rate of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has forced researchers to find more efficient strategies for controlling this disease. Studies have proven the important role of alteration in iron, zinc and selenium metabolism in CKD pathological process. Nanotechnology, through synthetizing nano metal-organic framework (NMOF) structures, can be employed as a valuable strategy for using these trace elements as the key for modification and improvement of CKD-related pathological events. After proving the anti-diabetic property of DIBc NMOF (which contains selenium and zinc) in the previous study, the impact of this NMOF on some important biochemical and pathological parameters of CKD was evaluated in the current study. METHODS Knowing that diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of CKD, male wistar rats were selected and given a high fat diet for 2 weeks and then were injected with streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) to induce DN. Six weeks after streptozotocin injection, DIBc or metformin treatment started and continued for 8 weeks. RESULTS Eight weeks of DIBc treatment decreased plasma fasting blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, malondialdehyde (MDA) and HOMA-IR index compared to DN control and metformin groups. This NMOF significantly reduced urinary albumin excretion rate, MDA and 8-isoprostane, while it increased creatinine clearance in comparison to the above-mentioned groups. Renal histo-pathological images indicated that DIBc ameliorated glomerular basement membrane thickening and wrinkling, mesangial matrix expansion and hypercellularity and presence of intra-cytoplasmic hyaline droplets in proximal cortical tubules of kidney samples. CONCLUSION The results showed the therapeutic effect of DIBc on important biochemical and histo-pathological parameters of CKD, so this NMOF could be regarded as a promising novel anti-CKD agent.

Abstract
Selenium is a trace element, nutritionally classified as an essential micronutrient, involved in maintaining the correct function of several enzymes incorporating the selenocysteine residue, namely the selenoproteins. The human selenoproteome including 25 proteins is extensively described here. The most relevant selenoproteins, including glutathione peroxidases, thioredoxin reductases and iodothyronine deiodinases are required for the proper cellular redox homeostasis as well as for the correct thyroid function, thus preventing oxidative stress and related diseases. This review summarizes the main advances on oxidative stress with a focus on selenium metabolism and transport. Moreover, thyroid-related disorders are discussed, considering that the thyroid gland contains the highest selenium amount per gram of tissue, also for future possible therapeutic implication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The age-related autoinflammation-mediated atherosclerosis is associated with some immunological, nutritional, and metabolic parameters and redox status. Here, we evaluated the association of circulatory interleukin 10 (IL-10) levels with lipid profile, some nutrients, and total anti-oxidant capacity in elderly people who presented cardiovascular disease (CVD) with or without metabolic syndrome (MetS) and in healthy subjects. METHODS In this cross-sectional case-control study, 258 sera prepared from elderly people (144 healthy and 114 patient subjects) who participated in a community-based study, the Amirkola Health and Ageing Project (AHAP), were analyzed for IL-10, lipid profile, vitamin D, selenium (Se), antioxidant capacity, and MetS. RESULTS Compared to patients, the healthy subjects exhibited higher levels of circulatory IL-10 among individuals with detectable serum IL-10 (P = 0.036). However, this difference was not observed when total subjects from both groups were compared, since more than 90% of those people were IL-10-negative. Se, vitamin D, and antioxidant levels were similar in both groups. There was a negative association between IL-10 and body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.050) and an equivocal association with vitamin D levels, whereas the association between IL-10 and other indicated variables was not significant. Significant association was observed between MetS and CVD prevalence (P < 0.001). There was a positive correlation between Se and total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglyceride (TG) (P < 0.010) in healthy subjects and with TC in patients (P < 0.050). CONCLUSION A major proportion of elderly people were serum IL-10-negative, whereas independently to IL-10, MetS was most common in patients with CVD. Weight loss may have the potential to increase IL-10 levels in the elderly.

Abstract
(1) Background: In this review, we provide information published in recent years on the chemical forms, main biological functions and especially on antioxidant and prooxidant activities of selenium. The main focus is put on the impact of selenoproteins on maintaining cellular redox balance and anticancerogenic function. Moreover, we summarize data on chemotherapeutic application of redox active selenium compounds. (2) Methods: In the first section, main aspects of metabolism and redox activity of selenium compounds is reviewed. The second outlines multiple biological functions, asserted when selenium is incorporated into the structure of selenoproteins. The final section focuses on anticancer activity of selenium and chemotherapeutic application of redox active selenium compounds as well. (3) Results: optimal dietary level of selenium ensures its proper antioxidant and anticancer activity. We pay special attention to antioxidant activities of selenium compounds, especially selenoproteins, and their importance in antioxidant defence. It is worth noting, that data on selenium anticancer properties is still contraversive. Moreover, selenium compounds as chemotherapeutic agents usually are used at supranutritional doses. (4) Conclusions: Selenium play a vital role for many organism systems due to its incorporation into selenoproteins structure. Selenium possesses antioxidant activity at optimal doses, while at supranutritional doses, it displays prooxidant activity. Redox active selenium compounds can be used for cancer treatment; recently special attention is put to selenium containing nanoparticles.

Zwolak I. The Role of Selenium in Arsenic and Cadmium Toxicity: an Updated Review of Scientific Literature. Biol Trace Elem Res 2020; 193:44-63. [PMID: 30877523 PMCID: PMC6914719 DOI: 10.1007/s12011-019-01691-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 125] [Impact Index Per Article: 31.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2018] [Accepted: 02/28/2019] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Arsenic (As) and cadmium (Cd) are elements arousing major public health concerns associated with environmental pollution, high toxicity potential, and carcinogenic nature. However, selenium (Se) at low doses and incorporated into enzymes and proteins has antioxidant properties and protects animals and humans from the risk of various diseases. It also has an exceptionally narrow range between necessary and toxic concentrations, which is a well-known hindrance in its use as a dietary supplement. The present article aims to update and expand the role of Se in As and Cd toxicity discussed in our earlier paper. In general, recent reports show that Se, regardless of its form (as selenite, selenomethionine, nanoSe, or Se from lentils), can reduce As- or Cd-mediated toxicity in the liver, kidney, spleen, brain, or heart in animal models and in cell culture studies. As was suggested in our earlier review, Se antagonizes the toxicity of As and Cd mainly through sequestration of these elements into biologically inert complexes and/or through the action of Se-dependent antioxidant enzymes. An increase in the As methylation efficiency is proposed as a possible mechanism by which Se can reduce As toxicity. However, new studies indicate that Se may also diminish As or Cd toxicity by activation of the Nrf2 pathway. In addition, this paper discusses possible signs of Se toxic effects, which may be a challenge for its future use in the therapy of As and Cd poisoning and provide future directions to address this issue.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a debilitating pathology with various causal factors, culminating in end stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis or kidney transplantation. The progression of CKD is closely associated with systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, which are responsible for the manifestation of numerous complications such as malnutrition, atherosclerosis, coronary artery calcification, heart failure, anemia and mineral and bone disorders, as well as enhanced cardiovascular mortality. In addition to conventional therapy with anti-inflammatory and antioxidative agents, growing evidence has indicated that certain minerals, vitamins and plant-derived metabolites exhibit beneficial effects in these disturbances. In the current work, we review the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of various agents which could be of potential benefit in CKD/ESRD. However, the related studies were limited due to small sample sizes and short-term follow-up in many trials. Therefore, studies of several anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents with long-term follow-ups are necessary.

Abstract
Selenium supplementation in humans has been suggested for the prevention of chronic diseases including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Selenium biofortification of plants has been explored as a method for increasing selenium content of food and dietary selenium intake in humans. However, the effects of selenium biofortification on other dietary nutrients is often a secondary discussion. These effects are especially important to explore considering selenium-biofortified foods contain many other nutrients important to human health, such as other minerals and antioxidant compounds, which can make these foods superior to selenium supplementation alone. Investigation of selenium biofortification's effect on these nutrients is necessary for a comprehensive human nutrition perspective on biofortification strategies. This review considers the effects of selenium biofortification on selenium content, other minerals, and antioxidant compounds as they pertain to human health in order to suggest optimal strategies for biofortification. Pre-clinical and clinical studies assessing the effects of consumption of selenium biofortified foods are also discussed.

Abstract
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic hemoglobinopathy characterized by chronic hemolysis. Chronic hemolysis is promoted by increased oxidative stress. Our hypothesis was that some antioxidant micronutrients (retinol, tocopherol, selenium, and zinc) would be determinant factors of the degree of hemolysis in SCD patients. We aimed to investigate the nutritional adequacy of these antioxidants and their relationships to hemolysis. The study included 51 adult SCD patients regularly assisted in two reference centers for hematology in the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Serum concentrations of retinol, alpha-tocopherol, selenium, and zinc were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography or atomic absorption spectrometry. Hematological parameters (complete blood count, reticulocyte count, hemoglobin, direct and indirect bilirubin, total bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase) and inflammation markers (leukocytes and ultra-sensitive C-reactive protein) were analyzed. A linear regression model was used to test the associations between the variables. Most patients presented selenium deficiency and low selenium consumption. Linear regression analysis showed that selenium is the main determinant of hemolysis among the antioxidant nutrients analyzed. Thus, data from this study suggest that the nutritional care protocols for patients with SCD should include dietary sources of selenium in order to reduce the risk of hemolysis.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the interaction of red blood cell cadmium and lead, total urinary arsenic, and plasma selenium in chronic kidney disease (CKD). We recruited 220 CKD patients as well as 438 gender- and age-matched controls, and we defined CKD as <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) for three or more consecutive months. Plasma selenium and red blood cell cadmium and lead concentrations were measured by ICP-MS. Urinary arsenic species were determined via HPLC-HG-AAS and were summed to determine the total urinary arsenic concentration. Plasma selenium was positively correlated to eGFR, and subjects with high plasma selenium levels (>243.90 μg/L) had a significantly lower odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.23, 0.13-0.42) for CKD compared to those with low plasma selenium levels (≤ 196.70 μg/L). High plasma selenium and low red blood cell cadmium or lead concentrations interacted to decrease the OR and 95% CI for CKD (0.12, 0.06-0.26; 0.09, 0.04-0.19). High plasma selenium and low red blood cell lead levels also interacted to increase the eGFR (20.70, 15.56-26.01 mL/min/1.73 m2). This study is the first to suggest that selenium modifies the eGFR and OR in CKD induced by environmental toxicants.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential trace element in the human body and plays an important role in the body via selenoprotein, which contains selenium. Selenoproteins (glutathione peroxidase, thioredoxin reductase, methionine sulfoxide reductase1 and endoplasmic reticulum-selenoproteins, etc.) have antioxidant effects and are involved in regulating antioxidant activities. Aging is an inevitable process and is always accompanied by aging-related diseases. Reactive oxygen species are important initial factors in aging and aging-related diseases. Selenium contributes to the alleviation of reduced reactive oxygen species-mediated inflammation, reduced DNA damage and prolonged telomere length and thereby plays roles in fighting aging and preventing aging-related diseases. In the elderly, aging-related diseases include neuropsychiatric diseases, tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and skin aging, among others. Selenium supplementation is an important strategy for anti-aging and the prevention of aging-related diseases and is of great significance for the elderly. However, with the accumulation of related research, selenium supplementation does not necessarily contribute to the prevention of aging and aging-related diseases. It is believed that a low level of selenium is beneficial to the human body. Thus, the effect of selenium on human aging and aging-related diseases is still controversial. This paper reviews the research progress and objective role of selenium in aging and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
Significance: Sepsis is the main cause of death among patients admitted to the intensive care unit. As current treatment is limited to antimicrobial therapy and supportive care, mortality remains high, which warrants efforts to find novel therapies. Recent Advances: Mitochondrial dysfunction is emerging as a key process in the induction of organ dysfunction during sepsis, and metabolic resuscitation might reveal to be a novel cornerstone in the treatment of sepsis. Critical Issues: Here, we review novel strategies to maintain organ function in sepsis by precluding mitochondrial dysfunction by lowering energetic demand to allow preservation of adenosine triphosphate-levels, while reducing free radical generation. As the most common strategy to suppress metabolism, that is, cooling, does not reveal unequivocal beneficial effects and may even increase mortality, caloric restriction or modulation of energy-sensing pathways (i.e., sirtuins and AMP-activated protein kinase) may offer safe alternatives. Similar effects may be offered when mimicking hibernation by hydrogen sulfide (H2S). In addition H2S may also confer beneficial effects through upregulation of antioxidant mechanisms, similar to the other gasotransmitters nitric oxide and carbon monoxide, which display antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in sepsis. In addition, oxidative stress may be averted by systemic or mitochondria-targeted antioxidants, of which a wide range are able to lower inflammation, as well as reduce organ dysfunction and mortality from sepsis. Future Directions: Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. As a consequence, metabolic resuscitation might reveal to be a novel cornerstone in the treatment of sepsis.

Abstract
Researches have shown that dietary zearalenone (ZEA) caused oxidative stress in the liver and reproductive organs of postweaning gilts. However, information on the effects of ZEA on oxidative stress of the small intestine in the piglets is limited. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of ZEA exposure on oxidative stress, the Kelch-like erythroid cell-derived protein with CNC homology (ECH)-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway and on immunohistochemistry of the jejunum in postweaning gilts. A 35-d feeding experiment using 40 postweaning gilts (Landrace × Yorkshire × Duroc) with an average BW of 14.01 ± 0.86 kg in 4 groups fed corn-soybean meal-based diets containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mg ZEA/kg was conducted. The jejunum was obtained at the end of the experiment and used for analyses. The results showed that the activities of total superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase and the relative expressions of Keap1 mRNA and protein in the jejunum linearly and quadratically decreased (P < 0.05) with increasing concentrations of ZEA in the diets. The malondialdehyde content, the integrated optical density of Nrf2 and glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1), and the relative expressions of Nrf2, GPX1, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), and modifier subunit of glutamate-cysteine ligase (GCLM) mRNA and proteins linearly and quadratically increased (P < 0.05) with increasing levels of ZEA. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that Nrf2 and GPX1 immunoreactivity was enhanced by the ZEA treatments, and block localization of yellow and brown immunoreactive substances in the jejunum was observed with increasing levels of ZEA. The results suggest that ingested ZEA induced oxidative stress in the jejunum in postweaning gilts through upregulation of the Keap1-Nrf2 signaling pathway and downstream target genes NQO1, HO1, and GCLM, indicating the important role of the Keap1-Nrf2 signaling pathway in oxidative stress induced by ZEA in the jejunum of the postweaning piglets.

Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS), defined as disturbances in the pro-/antioxidant balance, is harmful to cells due to the excessive generation of highly reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species. When the balance is not disturbed, OS has a role in physiological adaptations and signal transduction. However, an excessive amount of ROS and RNS results in the oxidation of biological molecules such as lipids, proteins, and DNA. Oxidative stress has been reported in kidney disease, due to both antioxidant depletions as well as increased ROS production. The kidney is a highly metabolic organ, rich in oxidation reactions in mitochondria, which makes it vulnerable to damage caused by OS, and several studies have shown that OS can accelerate kidney disease progression. Also, in patients at advanced stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD), increased OS is associated with complications such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, inflammation, and anemia. In this review, we aim to describe OS and its influence on CKD progression and its complications. We also discuss the potential role of various antioxidants and pharmacological agents, which may represent potential therapeutic targets to reduce OS in both pediatric and adult CKD patients.
