Abstract
Aims: Studies demonstrated that oxidized fish oil (OFO) promoted oxidative stress and induced mitochondrial dysfunction and lipotoxicity, which attenuated beneficial effects of fish oil supplements in the treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The current study was performed on yellow catfish, a good model to study NAFLD, and its hepatocytes to explore whether selenium (Se) could alleviate OFO-induced lipotoxicity via the inhibition of oxidative stress and determine its potential mechanism. Results: The analysis of triglycerides content, oxidative stress parameters, and histological and transmission electronic microscopy observation showed that high dietary Se supplementation alleviated OFO-induced lipotoxicity, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial injury and dysfunction. RNA-sequencing and immunoblotting analysis indicated that high dietary Se reduced OFO-induced decline of peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor alpha (Pparα) and ubiquitin-specific protease 4 (Usp4) protein expression. High Se supplementation also alleviated OFO-induced reduction of thioredoxin reductase 2 (txnrd2) messenger RNA (mRNA) expression level and activity. The txnrd2 knockdown experiments revealed that txnrd2 mediated Se- and oxidized eicosapentaenoic acid (oxEPA)-induced changes of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) and further altered Usp4 mediated-deubiquitination and stabilization of Pparα, which, in turn, modulated mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation and metabolism. Mechanistically, Usp4 deubiquitinated Pparα and ubiquitin-proteasome-mediated Pparα degradation contributed to oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Innovation: These findings uncovered a previously unknown mechanism by which Se and OFO interacted to affect lipid metabolism via the Txnrd2-mtROS-Usp4-Pparα pathway, which provides the new target for NAFLD prevention and treatment. Conclusion: Se ameliorated OFO-induced lipotoxicity via the inhibition of mitochondrial oxidative stress, remodeling of Usp4-mediated deubiquitination, and stabilization of Pparα. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 40, 433-452.

Effects of Different Dietary Selenium Sources on the Meat Quality and Antioxidant Capacity of Yellow Catfish ( Pelteobagrus fulvidraco). AQUACULTURE NUTRITION 2023; 2023:7981183. [PMID: 37547823 PMCID: PMC10404151 DOI: 10.1155/2023/7981183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/08/2023]
Abstract
To assess the effect of dietary selenium (Se) sources on the meat quality and antioxidant capacity of yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco), sodium selenite (Na2SeO3), Se yeast, and selenium-enriched Spirulina platensis (Se-SP) were supplemented in the control diet at 0.30 mg Se/kg feed to formulate four diets. The experimental period lasted 50 days. The results showed that Se levels in the plasma, liver, muscle, and whole body were significantly increased by dietary Se yeast supplementation (P < 0.05) but showed no change in response to Na2SeO3 (P > 0.05). The three types of Se all increased the firmness and decreased the fracturability of the muscles (P < 0.05), but only Na2SeO3 resulted in higher springiness, flexibility, stringiness, and stickiness (P < 0.05). In addition, the muscle n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) content was increased by Se yeast (P < 0.05). Regarding antioxidant capacity, dietary Se yeast and Se-SP supplementation improved hepatic glutathione peroxidase activity but decreased hepatic malondialdehyde content (P < 0.05). Given these results, Se yeast was found to be the optimal source of Se for yellow catfish for higher tissue retention, antioxidant capacity, and PUFA levels. Dietary Se is an effective way to regulate the meat quality and antioxidant capacity of yellow catfish.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) functions through selenoproteins and is essential to growth and metabolism of vertebrates. The present study was conducted to identify twelve selenoproteins genes (selenoe, selenof, selenoh, selneoi, selenom, selenok, selneon, selenoo, selenot, selenos, selenou and msrb1) from yellow catfish. Their mRNA expression patterns, as well as their response to dietary oxidized fish oils and Se addition were explored. METHODS We use 3'and 5' RACE PCR to clone full-length cDNA sequence of twelve selenoprotein genes from yellow catfish. Their mRNA expression patterns were assessed via quantitative real-time PCR. Yellow catfish were fed diet adequate Se+ fresh fish oil, adequate Se+ oxidized fish oil, high Se+ fresh fish oil and high Se+ oxidized fish oil, respectively, for 10 weeks. Their kidney, heart, brain and testis were used to assess the mRNA expression of twelve selenoprotein. RESULTS Twelve selenoprotein genes had similar domains with mammals and the other fish. Their mRNAs were expressed widely in eleven tissues but varied with the tissues. Dietary oxidized fish oils and Se addition influenced their mRNA abundances of twelve selenoproteins in a tissue-dependent manner. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated the characterization and expression of twelve selenoproteins, and elucidated their responses in yellow catfish fed diets varying in oxidized fish oils and Se addition, which increased our knowledge into the biological function and regulatory mechanism of Se and selenoproteins in fish.

Abstract
The selenok, selenot and selenop are three key selenoproteins involved in stress response. Our study, using the yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco as the experimental animal, obtained the 1993-bp, 2000-bp and 1959-bp sequences of selenok, selenot and selenop promoters, respectively, and predicted the binding sites of several transcriptional factors on their promoters, such as Forkhead box O 4 (FoxO4), activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), Kruppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). Selenium (Se) increased the activities of the selenok, selenot and selenop promoters. FoxO4 and Nrf2 can directly bind with selenok promoter and controlled selenok promoter activities positively; KLF4 and Nrf2 can directly bind with selenot promoter and controlled selenot promoter activities positively; FoxO4 and ATF4 can directly bind to selenop promoter and regulated selenop promoter activities positively. Se promoted FoxO4 and Nrf2 binding to selenok promoter, KLF4 and Nrf2 binding to selenot promoter, and FoxO4 and ATF4 binding to selenop promoter. Thus, we provide the first evidence for FoxO4 and Nrf2 bindnig elements in selenok promoter, KLF4 and Nrf2 binding elements in selenot promoter, and FoxO4 and ATF4 binding elements in selenop promoter, and offer novel insight into regulatory mechanism of these selenoproteins induced by Se.

Decreased thioredoxin reductase 3 expression promotes nickel-induced damage to cardiac tissue via activating oxidative stress-induced apoptosis and inflammation. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY 2023; 38:436-450. [PMID: 36421005 DOI: 10.1002/tox.23710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 10/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Thioredoxin reductase 3 (Txnrd3) plays a crucial role in antioxidant and anti-cancer activities, and sperm maturation. The damage of heavy metals, including Nickel (Ni), is the most prominent harm in social development, and hampering Txnrd3 might exacerbate Ni-induced cardiac damage. In this study, a total of 160 8-week-old C57BL/N male mice with 25-30 g weight of Txnrd3+/+ wild-type and Txnrd3-/- homozygote-type were randomly divided into eight groups. The mice in the control and Ni groups were gavaged with distilled water and a freshly prepared 10 mg/kg NiCl2 solution. Melatonin (Mel) groups were administered at a concentration of 2 mg/kg for 21 days at the mice's 0.1 ml/10 g body weight. Ni exposure up-regulated the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of mitochondrial apoptosis (caspase-3, caspase-9, cytochrome c, p53, and BAX), autophagy (LC3, ATG 1, ATG 7, and Beclin-1), and inflammation (TNF-α, COX 2, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, and IL-7)-related markers, but down-regulated the mRNA levels of BCL-2, p62 and mTOR (p < .05). Ni exposure decreased the expression of BCL-2 and p62 protein but increased the expression levels of caspase-3, caspase-9, cytochrome c, p53, BAX, ATG 7, Beclin-1, TNF-α, COX 2, IL-1β and IL-2 protein (p < .05). Ni increased the contents of glutathione disulfide (GSSG) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and decreased the activities of catalase (CAT) and total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) (p < .05). Decreased Txnrd3 expression significantly exacerbated changes compared to the Ni exposure (p < .05). Mel significantly attenuated these changes, but the effect decreased when Txnrd3 was inhibited (p < .05). In conclusion, decreased Txnrd3 expression promoted Ni-induced mitochondrial apoptosis and inflammation via oxidative stress and aggravated heart damage in mice. Decreased Txnrd3 expression significantly reduced the protective effect of Mel to Ni exposure.

Molecular characterization and expression analysis of selenoprotein W gene in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with dietary selenium levels. Biometals 2022; 35:1359-1370.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) plays an essential role in the growth of fish and performs its physiological functions mainly through incorporation into selenoproteins. Our previous studies suggested that the selenoprotein W gene (selenow) is sensitive to changes in dietary Se in rainbow trout. However, the molecular characterization and tissue expression pattern of selenow are still unknown. Here, we revealed the molecular characterization, the tissue expression pattern of rainbow trout selenow and analyzed its response to dietary Se. The open reading frame (ORF) of the selenow gene was composed of 393 base pairs (bp) and encodes a 130-amino-acid protein. The 3' untranslated region (UTR) was 372 bp with a selenocysteine insertion sequence (SECIS) element. Remarkably, the rainbow trout selenow gene sequence was longer than those reported for mammals and most other fish. A β1-α1-β2-β3-β4-α2 pattern made up the secondary structure of SELENOW. Furthermore, multiple sequence alignment revealed that rainbow trout SELENOW showed a high level of identity with SELENOW from Salmo salar. In addition, the selenow gene was ubiquitously distributed in 13 tissues with various abundances and was predominantly expressed in muscle and brain. Interestingly, dietary Se significantly increased selenow mRNA expression in muscle. Our results highlight the vital role of selenow in rainbow trout muscle response to dietary Se levels and provide a theoretical basis for studies of selenow.

Effects of Dietary Selenium and Oxidized Fish Oils on Intestinal Lipid Metabolism and Antioxidant Responses of Yellow Catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11101904. [PMID: 36290629 PMCID: PMC9598306 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11101904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Currently, the effect of selenium and oxidized fish oil interactions on the intestinal lipid metabolism and antioxidant responses of fish remains unknown. Herein, yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco (weight: 3.99 ± 0.01 g) were used as experimental animals and were fed four diets: an adequate amount of selenium (0.25 mg kg−1) with fresh fish oil (A-Se+FFO), an adequate amount of selenium with oxidized fish oil (A-Se+OFO), a high amount of selenium (0.50 mg kg−1) with fresh fish oil (H-Se+FFO), and a high amount of selenium with oxidized fish oil (H-Se+OFO). The feeding experiment was conducted for 10 weeks. The results showed that selenium supplementation alleviated the intestinal tissue damage and reduced the lipid accumulation that was induced by oxidized fish oils. Meanwhile, we also found that 0.50 mg kg−1 selenium reduced the oxidative stress that is caused by oxidized fish oils through increasing the GSH and the activity and mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes. Dietary selenium and oxidized fish oils also affected the mRNA expression of intestinal selenoproteins including selenow2a, selenop2, and selenot2. Mechanistically, Se and oxidized eicosapentaenoic acid (oxEPA) influenced the GSH content by affecting the DNA binding ability of activating transcription factor (ATF) 3 to the slc7a11 promoter. For the first time, our results suggested that selenium alleviated the oxidized fish oil-induced intestinal lipid deposition and the oxidative stress of the fish. We also elucidated the novel mechanism of selenium increasing the GSH content by affecting the interaction of ATF3 and the slc7a11 promoter.

Abstract
At present, studies involved in the effects of dietary Se sources on lipid metabolism were very scarce and the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Previous studies reported that dietary Se sources differentially affected selenoprotein S (SELENOS) expression and SELENOS affected lipid metabolism via the inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α)- spliced X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1s) pathway. Thus, we used yellow catfish as an experimental model to explore whether dietary selenium sources affected the hepatic lipid metabolism, and further determined the role of SELENOS-IRE1α-XBP1s pathway in dietary selenium sources affecting hepatic lipid metabolism. Compared with the selenomethionine (S-M) group, sodium selenite (SS) group possessed higher liver triglycerides (TGs) (34.7%), lipogenic enzyme activities (57.9-70.6%), and lower antioxidant enzyme activities (23.3-35.5%), increased protein levels of heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) and SELENOS (1.17-fold and 47.4%, respectively), and XBP1s- peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) pathway. Blocking SELENOS and PPARγ by RNA interference demonstrated that the SELENOS/XBP1s/PPARγ axis was critical for S-S-induced lipid accumulation. Moreover, S-S-induced upregulation of SELENOS was via the increased DNA binding capacity of HSF1 to SELENOS promoter, which activated the XBP1s/PPARγ pathway and promoted lipogenesis and lipid accumulation. XBP1s is required for S-S-induced upregulation of PPARγ expression. Our finding elucidated the mechanism of dietary Se sources affecting the lipid metabolism in the liver of yellow catfish and demonstrated novel function of SELENOS in metabolic regulation. Our study also suggested that seleno-methionine was a better Se source than selenite against abnormal lipid deposition in the liver of yellow catfish.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. GENE REGULATORY MECHANISMS 2022; 1865:194814.

Abstract
Mounting evidence showed that excess selenium (10.0-15.0-fold of adequate Se) intake caused severe hepatic lipid deposition in the vertebrate. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The study was performed to elucidate the mechanism of Se supranutrition mediated-changes of lipid deposition and metabolism. We found that dietary excessive Se addition increased hepatic TGs and glucose contents, up-regulated lipogenic enzyme activities and reduced hepatic glycogen contents. Transcriptomic and immunoblotting analysis showed that Se supranutrition significantly influenced serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1)-forkhead box O3a (FOXO3a)-PYGL signaling and protein levels of SELENOF. Knockdown of SELENOF and PYGL by RNA interference revealed that the AKT1-FOXO3a-PYGL axis was critical for Se supranutrition-induced lipid accumulation. Moreover, Se supranutrition-induced lipid accumulation was via the increased DNA binding capacity of FOXO3a to PYGL promoter, which increased glycogenolysis, and accordingly promoted lipogenesis and lipid accumulation. Our finding provides new insight into the mechanism of Se supranutrition-induced lipid accumulation and suggests that SELENOF may be a therapeutic target for Se supranutrition induced-lipid disorders in the vertebrates.

Molecular characterization and tissue distribution of nine selenoprotein genes in grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella and their mRNA expressions in response to high-fat diet and high-fat diet supplemented with selenium. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2021; 259:110706. [PMID: 34954089 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpb.2021.110706] [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: 09/13/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Our previous study has found that selenium (Se) can alleviate lipid accumulation caused by high-fat diet (HFD) in fish. This study aims to explore the selenoproteins (SePs) in grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella by characterizing cDNAs of nine SeP genes (SELENOF, SELENOM, SELENOS, SELENOP1, SELENOP2, SELENOE, SELENOL, SELENOU1a and SELENOU1b) and measuring their transcriptional activity in response to HFD and HFD supplemented with 0.3 mg/Kg and 0.6 mg/Kg of Se (HSe 0.3 and HSe 0.6). Firstly, the nine SeP genes in grass carp encoded proteins with conserved functional protein regions in fish and other vertebrates. Secondly, the nine SeP genes except SELENOS showed high expression levels in the hepatopancreas, but in the adipose tissue, only SELENOS, SELENOE and SELENOU1b showed high expression levels. Further, HFD significantly up-regulated the expressions of SELENOF and SELENOS in the hepatopancreas and SELENOM in the adipose tissue of grass carp (P < 0.05), but significantly down-regulated the expressions of SELENOU1b in the hepatopancreas, SELENOP2, SELENOE, SELENOL and SELENOU1a in the adipose tissue and SELENOM in the muscle of grass carp (P < 0.05). In addition, for the hepatopancreas, the expressions of SELENOS in the HSe 0.3 group and SELENOF, SELENOM and SELENOP2 in the HSe 0.6 group significantly decreased compared with the HFD group (P < 0.05). For the adipose tissue, the expressions of SELENOF, SELENOP2, SELENOL, SELENOU1a and SELENOU1b in the HSe 0.3 group and SELENOP2, SELENOE, SELENOU1a and SELENOU1b in the HSe 0.6 group significantly increased compared with the HFD group (P < 0.05). In summary, the transcriptional activities of the nine SeP genes were regulated by the HFD and HFD supplemented with Se, indicating the potential role of these genes in the Se regulated lipid metabolism processes in grass carp, which is worthy of in-depth study.

Abstract
The study was conducted to determine the effects of three dietary Se sources, such as sodium-selenite (S-S), seleno-yeast (S-Y) and seleno-methionine (S-M), on Se concentration, glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and TXNRD activities, and mRNA expression of fifteen representative selenoproteins, and protein expression of four endoplasmic reticulum-resided selenoproteins in a wide range of tissues of yellow catfish. Compared with S-S and S-M groups, dietary S-Y significantly decreased growth performance and feed utilisation of yellow catfish. Dietary Se sources significantly influenced Se contents in the spleen, dorsal muscle and the kidney, GPX activities in spleen, kidney, intestine, muscle and mesenteric fat, and TXNRD activities in the heart, intestine and mesenteric fat. Among ten tested tissues, dietary Se sources influenced mRNA expression of GPX4 and SELENOK in three tissues; GPX3, SELENOS and TXNRD2 in four tissues; SELENOF, SELENON and DIO2 in five tissues; SELENOM, GPX1/2 and TXNRD3 in six tissues; SELENOW in seven tissue and SELENOP and SELENOT in eight tissues. Based on these observations above, S-S and S-M seem to be suitable Se sources for improving growth performance and feed utilisation of yellow catfish. Dietary Se sources differentially influence the expression of selenoproteins in various tissues of yellow catfish. For the first time, we determined the expression of selenoproteins in fish in responses to dietary Se sources, which contributes to a better understanding of the functions and regulatory mechanisms of selenoporteins.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential micro-mineral and plays important roles in antioxidant responses, and also influences lipid metabolism and selenoprotein expression in vertebrates, but the effects and mechanism remain unknown. The study was undertaken to decipher the insights into dietary Se influencing lipid metabolism and selenoprotein expression in the anterior and middle intestine (AI and MI) of yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco. Yellow catfish (weight: 8.27 ± 0.03 g) were fed a 0.03- (M-Se), 0.25- (A-Se), or 6.39- (E-Se) mg Se/kg diet for 12 wk. AI and MI were analyzed for triglycerides (TGs) and Se concentrations, histochemistry and immunofluorescence, enzyme activities, and gene and protein levelsassociated with antioxidant responses, lipid metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and selenoproteome. Compared to the A-Se group, M-Se and E-Se diets significantly decreased weight gain (WG) and increased TGs concentration in the AI and MI. In the AI, compared with A-Se group, M-Se and E-Se diets significantly increased activities of fatty acid synthase, expression of lipogenic genes, and suppressed lipolysis. In the MI, compared to the A-Se group, M-Se and E-Se diets significantly increased activities of lipogenesis and expression of lipogenic genes. Compared with A-Se group, E-Se diet significantly increased glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activities in the AI and MI, and M-Se diet did not significantly reduce GPX activities in the AI and MI. Compared with the A- Se group, E-Se diet significantly increased glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activities in the plasma and liver, and M-Se diet significantly reduced GPX activities in the plasma and liver. Compared with the A-Se group, M-Se and E-Se groups also increased glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78, ER stress marker) protein expression of the intestine. Dietary Se supplementation also differentially influenced the expression of the 28 selenoproteins in the AI and MI, many of which possessed antioxidant characteristics. Compared with the A-Se group, the M-Se group significantly decreased mRNA levels of txnrd2 and txnrd3, but made no difference on mRNA levels of these seven GPX proteins in the MI. Moreover, we characterized sterol regulatory element binding protein 1c (SREBP1c) binding sites of three ER-resident proteins (selenom, selenon, and selenos) promoters, and found that Se positively controlled selenom, selenon, and selenos expression via SREBP1c binding to the selenom, selenon, and selenos promoter. Thus, dietary marginal and excess Se increased TGs deposition of yellow catfish P. fulvidraco, which might be mediated by ER-resident selenoproteins expression and ER stress.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a disease characterized by recurrent, episodic, and transient central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction resulting from an excessive synchronous discharge of brain neurons. It is characterized by diverse etiology, complex pathogenesis, and difficult treatment. In addition, most epileptic patients exhibit social cognitive impairment and psychological impairment. Iron is an essential trace element for human growth and development and is also involved in a variety of redox reactions in organisms. However, abnormal iron metabolism is associated with several neurological disorders, including hemorrhagic post-stroke epilepsy and post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE). Moreover, ferroptosis is also considered a new form of regulation of cell death, which is attributed to severe lipid peroxidation caused by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and iron overload found in various neurological diseases, including epilepsy. Therefore, this review summarizes the study on iron metabolism and ferroptosis in epilepsy, in order to elucidate the correlation between iron and epilepsy. It also provides a novel method for the treatment, prevention, and research of epilepsy, to control epileptic seizures and reduce nerve injury after the epileptic seizure.
