Metal mixture exposures and serum lipid levels in childhood: the Rhea mother-child cohort in Greece. JOURNAL OF EXPOSURE SCIENCE & ENVIRONMENTAL EPIDEMIOLOGY 2024:10.1038/s41370-024-00674-x. [PMID: 38698271 DOI: 10.1038/s41370-024-00674-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Growing evidence suggests that cardiovascular disease develops over the lifetime, often beginning in childhood. Metal exposures have been associated with cardiovascular disease and important risk factors, including dyslipidemia, but prior studies have largely focused on adult populations and single metal exposures. OBJECTIVE To investigate the individual and joint impacts of multiple metal exposures on lipid levels during childhood. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 291 4-year-old children from the Rhea Cohort Study in Heraklion, Greece. Seven metals (manganese, cobalt, selenium, molybdenum, cadmium, mercury, and lead) were measured in whole blood using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Serum lipid levels included total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. To determine the joint and individual impacts of child metal exposures (log2-transformed) on lipid levels, Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) was employed as the primary multi-pollutant approach. Potential effect modification by child sex and childhood environmental tobacco smoke exposure was also evaluated. RESULTS BKMR identified a positive association between the metal mixture and both total and LDL cholesterol. Of the seven metals examined, selenium (median 90.6 [IQR = 83.6, 96.5] µg/L) was assigned the highest posterior inclusion probability for both total and LDL cholesterol. A difference in LDL cholesterol of 8.22 mg/dL (95% CI = 1.85, 14.59) was observed when blood selenium was set to its 75th versus 25th percentile, holding all other metals at their median values. In stratified analyses, the positive association between selenium and LDL cholesterol was only observed among boys or among children exposed to environmental tobacco smoke during childhood. IMPACT STATEMENT Growing evidence indicates that cardiovascular events in adulthood are the consequence of the lifelong atherosclerotic process that begins in childhood. Therefore, public health interventions targeting childhood cardiovascular risk factors may have a particularly profound impact on reducing the burden of cardiovascular disease. Although growing evidence supports that both essential and nonessential metals contribute to cardiovascular disease and risk factors, such as dyslipidemia, prior studies have mainly focused on single metal exposures in adult populations. To address this research gap, the current study investigated the joint impacts of multiple metal exposures on lipid concentrations in early childhood.

Abstract
Tannins, also known as plant polyphenols (PPs), are secondary metabolites widely existing in higher plants and are a kind of natural renewable resource with wide distribution, variety and quantity. Tannin has become an important class of fine chemicals due to the easily modified molecular structure and the properties of antibacterial and antioxidant, combining with protein and complexing with metal ion. Besides being used for tanning leather, tannins are also widely used in wood adhesive, concrete water-reducing agents, oil drilling fluid viscosity-reducing agents, pharmaceutical, mineral processing, water treatment, gas desulfurization, metal anticorrosion, wood anticorrosion, printing and dyeing, liquor clarification, oil antioxidant, daily chemical products and other products preparation. There are two groups of tannins: condensed tannins (CTs) (flavonoid-derived proanthocyanidins) and hydrolysable tannins (HTs) (gallic acid ester-derived). Tannins can form complexes with metals through the ortho-dihydroxyphenolic group(s), especially with transition metals. The structure-activity relationships, stoichiometry, and origin of the insolubility of which were emphasized. Furthermore, this paper proposed an in-depth discussion of the associations of tannins-metal complexes in human health, environment and industries.

Abstract
In the present study, Raman spectroscopy (RS) along with density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed for the successful characterization and confirmation of the formation of three different selenium-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes from their respective salts. For this purpose, mean RS features and DFT calculations of different ligands and their respective selenium NHC complexes are compared. The identified characteristic RS and DFT features, of each of these ligands and their selenium complexes, show that the polarizability of benzimidazolium rings increases after complex formation with selenium. This has been shown by the enhanced intensity of the associated Raman peaks, therefore, confirming the formation of newly formed bonds. The complex formation is also confirmed by the identification of several new peaks in the spectra of complexes and these Raman bands were absent in the spectra of the ligands. Moreover, Raman spectral data sets are analyzed using a multivariate data analysis technique of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to observe the efficiency of the RS analysis. The results presented in this study have proved the RS technique, along with DFT, an undoubtedly fast approach for the confirmation of synthesis of selenium based NHC-complexes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodevelopmental disorders. As an anti-oxidative agent, selenium plays an important role in human health. However, the relationship between selenium status and learning disability (LD), a common neurodevelopmental disorder, is unknown. OBJECTIVE To examine the association between serum selenium concentrations and learning disability. DESIGN Nationwide, population-based, cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS/SETTING Children aged 4-11 years who have available data on serum selenium concentrations and LD (N = 1,076) from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2000. EXPOSURE Serum selenium levels were measured using atomic absorption spectrometry. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Diagnosis of LD was reported by the children's parents. STATISTICAL ANALYSES PERFORMED Logistic regression models with survey weights were conducted adjusting for age, race/ethnicity, family income, total energy intake, body mass index, and serum cotinine levels. RESULTS In this study, 8.2% (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.2%-11.2%) of children had a diagnosis of LD. Serum selenium concentration was lower among children with LD than those without LD (geometric mean ± standard error, 107.7 ± 2.7 ng/mL vs. 112.8 ± 1.0 ng/mL, P for difference = 0.08). The adjusted odds ratio (OR) of LD comparing the highest with lowest tertile of serum selenium concentrations was 0.39 (95% CI 0.19-0.82). Each 10 ng/mL increment in serum selenium concentrations was associated with 31% (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.51-0.93) lower odds of LD. CONCLUSIONS Higher serum selenium concentration was associated with a lower risk of LD in U.S. children. The causal relationship between selenium and LD and the underlying mechanisms warrant further investigation.

Intake and adherence to energy and nutrient recommendations among women and men with binge-type eating disorders and healthy controls. Clin Nutr ESPEN 2022; 48:186-195. [PMID: 35331490 PMCID: PMC9744359 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnesp.2022.02.111] [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: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Research quantifying dietary intake in individuals with bulimia nervosa and binge-eating disorder (i.e., binge-type eating disorders) is surprisingly scant. We assessed the dietary intake of women and men with binge-type eating disorders in a large case-control study and compared them with healthy controls. We also evaluated the extent to which their dietary intake adhered to the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations. Among cases, we assessed the relationship of binge eating frequency with energy and macronutrient intake. METHODS We derived the total daily energy, macro-, and micronutrient intake of 430 cases with binge-type eating disorders (women: n = 391, men: n = 39) and 1227 frequency-matched controls (women: n = 1,213, men: n = 14) who completed the MiniMeal-Q, a validated food frequency questionnaire. We calculated mean intake for men and women and, in women, compared mean intake of energy and nutrients between cases and controls using linear regression. We calculated the proportion of women and men who met the recommended intake levels from the NNR, and compared these proportions in female cases and controls using logistic regression. We used linear regression to examine energy and macronutrient intake of women with varying frequencies of current binge-eating. RESULTS Female, but not male cases, had a higher mean intake of total energy/day compared with controls and higher intake than recommended. The majority in all groups (male and female cases and controls) exceeded saturated fat recommendations, and did not meet recommendations for omega-3 fatty acid intake. Among all groups, adherence was low for vitamin D, selenium, and salt. Iron and folate intake was low among the majority of women, especially controls. Female cases with ≥4 binge-eating episodes in the past 28 days had higher intake of energy and percent carbohydrates, and lower intake of percent fat, compared to cases with no binge-eating episodes in the past month. CONCLUSIONS Higher than recommended total daily energy intake among women with binge-type eating disorders may lead to weight gain and downstream health complications, if persistent. In most women, iron and folate intake was insufficient, which may have negative consequences for reproductive health. We found suboptimal adherence for key nutrients that are important to limit (saturated fat and salt) or meet (omega-3 fatty acids) for cardiovascular and overall health in all groups. Nutrition counseling should form an important pillar of treatment to assist with normalization of eating patterns and may also benefit individuals without eating disorders to optimize nutrient intake for long term health promotion.

Abstract
The present research focuses on synthesizing selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) coated with Methionine and Folic acid. selenium-methionine-folate nanoparticles (Se-Met-Fa NPs) were prepared by the chemical precipitation method. These were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, X-ray diffraction, Zeta potential, ICP-AES, TEM, and Raman spectroscopy. The average diameter of nanoparticles was determined by TEM was 50 nm. In Vitro viability of cells exposed to Se-Met-Fa NPs were studied using MTT and AO/EB assay. Approximately 80% of cells were viable at 100 μg/ml concentration after 24 h of incubation, suggestive of the safety of nanoparticles. Macromolecular interaction studies were carried out with plasmid DNA and Bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein. UV-Vis Spectroscopy showed ground state complex formation of Se-Met-Fa NPs with BSA. Intrinsic fluorescence of BSA was quenched by Se-met-Fa NPs via Static quenching and was observed under Spectro-fluorimetry. Conformational structural change in α-Helices of BSA was observed to be 4.4% after the interaction with Se-Met-Fa NPs, and it was studied using CD spectroscopy. At 250 μg/ml Se-Met-Fa NPs prevented oxidative damage of Plasmid DNA. The total antioxidant property of Se-Met-Fa NPs expressed in terms of scavenging of free DPPH radicals. Ten micrograms per milliliter could inhibit 41% of DPPH, proving its scavenger role at the lowest concentration. Nanoparticles comprising antioxidant semi-conducting cores and encapsulated by biomaterials that are highly bioavailable can be promising therapeutic agents for inflammation and oxidative stress disorders studies.

Abstract
The aim of the present review is to discuss traditional hypotheses on the etiopathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as the role of metabolic-syndrome-related mechanisms in AD development with a special focus on advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and their role in metal-induced neurodegeneration in AD. Persistent hyperglycemia along with oxidative stress results in increased protein glycation and formation of AGEs. The latter were shown to possess a wide spectrum of neurotoxic effects including increased Aβ generation and aggregation. In addition, AGE binding to receptor for AGE (RAGE) induces a variety of pathways contributing to neuroinflammation. The existing data also demonstrate that AGE toxicity seems to mediate the involvement of copper (Cu) and potentially other metals in AD pathogenesis. Specifically, Cu promotes AGE formation, AGE-Aβ cross-linking and up-regulation of RAGE expression. Moreover, Aβ glycation was shown to increase prooxidant effects of Cu through Fenton chemistry. Given the role of AGE and RAGE, as well as metal toxicity in AD pathogenesis, it is proposed that metal chelation and/or incretins may slow down oxidative damage. In addition, selenium (Se) compounds seem to attenuate the intracellular toxicity of the deranged tau and Aβ, as well as inhibiting AGE accumulation and metal-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
This review answers the question of why selenium is such an important trace element in the human diet. Daily dietary intake of selenium and its content in various food products is discussed in this paper, as well as the effects of its deficiency and excess in the body. Moreover, the biological activity of selenium, which it performs mainly through selenoproteins, is discussed. These specific proteins are responsible for thyroid hormone management, fertility, the aging process, and immunity, but their key role is to maintain a redox balance in cells. Furthermore, taking into account world news and the current SARS-CoV-2 virus pandemic, the impact of selenium on the course of COVID-19 is also discussed. Another worldwide problem is the number of new cancer cases and cancer-related mortality. Thus, the last part of the article discusses the impact of selenium on cancer risk based on clinical trials (including NPC and SELECT), systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. Additionally, this review discusses the possible mechanisms of selenium action that prevent cancer development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common degenerative disease of the central nervous system in the elderly. In recent years, the results of clinical and experimental studies have shown that oxidative stress is one of the important pathogenesis of PD. Selenium is one of the minor elements reported to possess antioxidant properties. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the recovery effect of glycine nano-selenium on neurobehavioral abnormalities and oxidative stress caused by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) in rat. MATERIALS AND METHODS SD male rats weighing 280-310 g were purchased from the Chengdu Dossy Experimental Animals Company, China. All rats were housed in a temperature-controlled room, with a 12 h light-dark cycles and had free access to food and water ad libitum. Rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 8 animals in each group: the control group (normal saline), 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine group (MPTP), MPTP + 0.05 mg/kg glycine nano-selenium (MPTP + 0.05 Se), MPTP + 0.1 mg/kg glycine nano-selenium (MPTP + 0.1 Se). Behavioral assessment, clinical symptoms, Immunohistochemistry analysis of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and antioxidant activity were accessed to determine the protective effects glycine nano-selenium have on PD rats. RESULTS From the results, Rats showed a decrease in spontaneous motor behavior and an increase in pole test score. Also, the number of TH+ neurons were also significantly decreased (P < 0.05) after treated with MPTP for 7 days indicating that MPTP could successfully induce neurobehavioral abnormalities in rats. Furthermore, the lipid peroxide (MDA) levels of the PD model group were significantly increased and the antioxidant activities (SOD and GSH-PX) were significantly inhibited (P < 0.05) compared to the control group indicating the important role oxidative stress played in dopaminergic neuron death and neurobehavioral abnormalities in PD rats. Compared with the PD model group, glycine nano-selenium administration could significantly improve behavior and increase the number of TH+ neurons (P < 0.05) to protect against the loss of dopaminergic neurons. At the same time, glycine nano-selenium could decrease the MDA levels and increase the activities of SOD and GSH-PX significantly (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION In conclusion, PD rat model was successfully developed by intraperitoneal injection of MPTP and the intragastric administration of glycine nano-selenium reduced neurobehavioral abnormalities by decreasing oxidative stress in rat brain.

Abstract
The antioxidant activity of glutathione in its reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) forms against metal-mediated oxidative DNA damage was studied by monitoring production of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) from calf-thymus DNA. GSH and GSSG were combined with Fe(ii) and Cu(ii) before and after addition of DNA to investigate the role of metal coordination in the antioxidant mechanism. The antioxidant behavior of GSH and GSSG was also compared to the known radical scavenger DMSO. GSH and GSSG lower oxidative DNA damage for Fe(ii) and Cu(ii) reactions. GSH only exhibited appreciable antioxidant behavior when combined with Fe(ii) prior to adding DNA, and GSH and GSSG were slightly more effective against Cu(ii)-mediated damage when combined with Cu(ii) prior to adding DNA. Raman spectra of GSH in the presence of Cu(ii) indicate that Cu(ii) oxidizes GSH and raises the possibility that the antioxidant activity of GSH against Cu(ii) reactions may be attributed to its ability to form GSSG. No evidence of GSH oxidation in the presence of Fe(ii) was observed. The fluorescent probe dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) shows that the presence of GSH (for Cu(ii) reactions) and GSSG (for Fe(ii) and Cu(ii) reactions) lowers levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in bulk solution. Overall, the results suggest that the mechanism of antioxidant activity for GSH and GSSG against Fe(ii) and Cu(ii)-mediated oxidative damage involves metal coordination, and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) studies of the Cu(ii)-GSSG system show an enthalpically favored complexation reaction with an apparent 1 : 1 stoichiometry.

Abstract
Accumulation of α-synuclein (α-Syn) is a remarkable pathology for Parkinson’s disease (PD), therefore clearing it is possibly a promising strategy for treating PD. Aberrant copper (Cu(II)) homeostasis and oxidative stress play critical roles in the abnormal aggregation of α-Syn in the progress of PD. It is reported that the polyphenol (−)-epi-gallocatechin gallate (EGCG) can inhibit α-Syn fibrillation and aggregation, disaggregate α-Syn mature fibrils, as well as protect α-Syn overexpressed-PC12 cells against damage. Also, previous studies have reported that EGCG can chelate many divalent metal ions. What we investigate here is whether EGCG can interfere with the Cu(II) induced fibrillation of α-Syn and protect the cell viability. In this work, on a molecular and cellulaire basis, we demonstrated that EGCG can form a Cu(II)/EGCG complex, leading to the inhibition of Cu(II)-induced conformation transition of α-Syn from random coil to β-sheet, which is a dominant structure in α-Syn fibrils and aggregates. Moreover, we found that the mixture of Cu(II) and EGCG in a molar ratio from 0.5 to 2 can efficiently inhibit this process. Furthermore, we demonstrated that in the α-Syn transduced-PC12 cells, EGCG can inhibit the overexpression and fibrillation of α-Syn in the cells, and reduce Cu(II)-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting the cells against Cu(II)-mediated toxicity.

Abstract
Three benzimidazolium salts (III-V) and respective selenium adducts (VI-VIII) were designed, synthesized and characterized by various analytical techniques (FT-IR and NMR 1H, 13C). Selected salts and respective selenium N-Heterocyclic carbenes (selenium-NHC) adducts were tested in vitro against Cervical Cancer Cell line (Hela), Breast Adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF-7), Retinal Ganglion Cell line (RGC-5) and Mouse Melanoma Cell line (B16F10) using MTT assay and the results were compared with standard drug 5-Fluorouracil. Se-NHC compounds and azolium salts showed significant anticancer potential. Molecular docking studies of compounds (VI, VII and VIII) showed strong binding energies and ligand affinity toward following angiogenic factors: VEGF-A (vascular endothelial growth factor A), EGF (human epidermal growth factor), HIF (Hypoxia-inducible factor) and COX-1 (Cyclooxygenase-1) suggesting that the anticancer activity of adducts (VI, VII and VIII) may be due to their strong anti-angiogenic effect. In addition, compounds III-VIII were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal potential. Adduct VI was found to be potent anti-fungal agent against A. Niger with zone of inhibition (ZI) value 27.01 ± 0.251 mm which is better than standard drug Clotrimazole tested in parallel.

Abstract
Inefficient arsenic methylation capacity has been associated with developmental delay in preschool children. Selenium has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that protect experimental animals from chemically induced neurotoxicity. The present study was designed to explore whether plasma selenium levels affects arsenic methylation capacity related to developmental delay in preschool children. A case-control study was conducted from August 2010 to March 2014. All participants were recruited from the Shin Kong Wu Ho-Su Memorial Teaching Hospital. In total, 178 children with a developmental delay and 88 children without a delay were recruited. High-performance liquid chromatography-linked hydride generator and atomic absorption spectrometry were used to determine urinary arsenic species, including arsenite (AsIII), arsenate (AsV), monomethylarsonic acid (MMAV), and dimethylarsinic acid (DMAV). Plasma selenium levels were measured by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. As results, plasma selenium concentration was significantly inversely associated with the odds ratio (OR) of developmental delay. Plasma selenium concentration was positively associated with arsenic methylation capacity [percentage of inorganic arsenic and percentage of MMAV (MMAV%) decreased, and percentage of DMAV (DMAV%) increased]. High plasma selenium concentration and high DMA% significantly and additively interacted to decrease the OR of developmental delay; the OR and 95% confidence interval were 0.40 (0.18-0.90). This is the first study to show a combined dose-response effect of plasma selenium concentration and that efficient arsenic methylation capacity decreased the OR of developmental delay in preschool children.

Abstract
Antagonism between heavy metal and selenium (Se) could significantly affect their biotoxicity, but little is known about the mechanisms underlying such microbial-mediated antagonistic processes as well as the formed products. In this work, we examined the cadmium (Cd)-Se interactions and their fates in Caenorhabditis elegans through in vivo and in vitro analysis and elucidated the machinery of Se-stimulated Cd detoxification. Although the Se introduction induced up to 3-fold higher bioaccumulation of Cd in C. elegans than the Cd-only group, the nematode viability remained at a similar level to the Cd-only group. The relatively lower level of reactive oxygen species in the Se & Cd group confirms a significantly enhanced Cd detoxification by Se. The Cd-Se interaction, mediated by multiple thiols, including glutathione and phytochelatin, resulted in the formation of less toxic cadmium selenide (CdSe)/cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles. The CdSe/CdS nanoparticles were mainly distributed in the pharynx and intestine of the nematodes, and continuously excreted from the body, which also benefitted the C. elegans survival. Our findings shed new light on the microbial-mediated Cd-Se interactions and may facilitate an improved understanding and control of Cd biotoxicity in complicated coexposure environments.

Abstract
The complexes formed from the binding of ovoselenol (OSeH) and ergoseloneine (ESeH) to Cu(II) and Cu(I) have been investigated with DFT methods. From the calculated thermodynamics, the binding of OSeH and ESeH to Cu(II) and Cu(I) ions increases the reduction potential for the Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox couple. The calculated reduction potentials for the Cu(II)(OSe)2/Cu(I)(OSeH)3+ and Cu(II)(ESe)2/Cu(I)(ESeH)3+ redox couples were found to be 1.15 V and 1.24 V in a dilute aqueous solution. By combining the half reactions for the oxidation of OSeH to the diselenide OSeSeO with the reduction of Cu(II)(OSe)2 to Cu(I)(OSeH)3+, the calculated EMF was 0.90 V. For the oxidation of ESeH to the diselenide ESeSeE with the concomitant reduction of Cu(II)(ESe)2 to Cu(I)(ESeH)3+, the calculated EMF was 0.67 V. Thus, for both systems, the reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I) with concomitant formation of either diselenide is thermodynamically favourable, and it is expected that both OSeH and ESeH are suitable for the protection against copper induced oxidative damage. As a result, the inhibition of the recycling of Cu(I) to Cu(II) is thermodynamically favourable in the presence of OSeH and ESeH.

Abstract
Synthetic organic molecules, which can selectively convert excess intracellular copper (Cu) ions to nanozymes with an ability to protect cells from oxidative stress, are highly significant in developing therapeutic agents against Cu-related disorder like Wilson's disease. Here, we report 1,3-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-1 H-benzoimidazole-2-selenone (1), which shows a remarkable ability to remove Cu ion from glutathione, a major cytosolic Cu-binding ligand, and thereafter converts it into copper selenide (CuSe) nanozyme that exhibits remarkable glutathione peroxidase-like activity, at cellular level of H2O2 concentration, with excellent cytoprotective effect against oxidative stress in hepatocyte. Cu-driven deselenization of 1, under physiologically relevant conditions, occurred in two steps. The activation of C═Se bond by metal ion is the crucial first step, followed by cleavage of the metal-activated C═Se bond, initiated by the OH group of N-(CH2)2OH substituent through neighboring group participation (deselenization step), resulted in the controlled synthesis of various types of Cu2-xSe nanocrystals (NCs) (nanodisks, nanocubes, and nanosheets) and tetragonal Cu3Se2 NCs, depending upon the oxidation state of the Cu ion used to activate the C═Se bond. Deselenization of 1 is highly metal-selective. Except Cu, other essential metal ions, including Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, or Zn2+, failed to produce metal selenide under identical reaction conditions. Moreover, no significant change in the expression level of Cu-metabolism-related genes, including metallothioneines MT1A, is observed in liver cells co-treated with Cu and 1, as opposed to the large increase in the concentrations of these genes observed in cells treated with Cu alone, suggesting the participation of 1 in Cu homeostasis in hepatocyte.

Se-Methylselenocysteine Ameliorates Neuropathology and Cognitive Deficits by Attenuating Oxidative Stress and Metal Dyshomeostasis in Alzheimer Model Mice. Mol Nutr Food Res 2018; 62:e1800107. [PMID: 29688618 DOI: 10.1002/mnfr.201800107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2018] [Revised: 04/14/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
SCOPE Se-methylselenocysteine (SMC) is a major selenocompound in selenium (Se)-enriched plants. Se is vital for proper brain function, and Se-deficient is considered to be related with cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease (AD). The potential of SMC in intervening cognitive deficits and neuropathology of triple transgenic AD (3 × Tg-AD) mice is evaluated for the first time. METHODS AND RESULTS AD mice are treated with SMC (0.75 mg kg-1 BW per day) in their drinking water for 10 months. Results reveal that SMC 1) reduces oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation; 2) modulates the distribution and levels of several metal ions; 3) decreases amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) generation by inhibiting the expression of its precursor protein APP and β-secretase (BACE1); and 4) attenuates tau hyperphosphorylation and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) formation via promoting protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity, thereby preserving synaptic proteins and neuron activities and finally improving spatial learning and memory deficits in AD model mice. The authors suggest that the inhibitory effect of SMC on MEK/ERK activation may play a critical role in intervening AD progression. CONCLUSIONS These results reveal that SMC is powerful in ameliorating AD-related neuropathology and cognitive deficits via modulating oxidative stress, metal homeostasis, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation.

Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2018; 1862:2393-2404. [PMID: 29631056 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2018.03.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2018] [Revised: 03/29/2018] [Accepted: 03/29/2018] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND A variety of selenium compounds have been observed to provide protection against oxidative stress, presumably by mimicking the mechanism of action of the glutathione peroxidases. However, the selenium chemistry that underpins the action of these compounds has not been unequivocally established. METHODS The synchrotron based techniques, X-ray absorption spectroscopy and X-ray fluorescence microscopy were used to examine the cellular speciation and distribution of selenium in SH-SY5Y cells pretreated with one of two diphenyl diselenides, or ebselen, followed by peroxide insult. RESULTS Bis(2-aminophenyl)diselenide was shown to protect against oxidative stress conditions which mimic ischemic strokes, while its nitro analogue, bis(2-nitrophenyl)diselenide did not. This protective activity was tentatively assigned to the reductive cleavage of bis(2-aminophenyl)diselenide inside human neurocarcinoma cells, SH-SY5Y, while bis(2-nitrophenyl)diselenide remained largely unchanged. The distinct chemistries of the related compounds were traced by the changes in selenium speciation in bulk pellets of treated SH-SY5Y cells detected by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Further, bis(2-aminophenyl)diselenide, like the known stroke mitigation agent ebselen, was observed by X-ray fluorescence imaging to penetrate into the nucleus of SH-SY5Y cells while bis(2-nitrophenyl)diselenide was observed to be excluded from the nuclear region. CONCLUSIONS The differences in activity were thus attributed to the varied speciation and cellular localisation of the compounds, or their metabolites, as detected by X-ray absorption spectroscopy and X-ray fluorescence microscopy. SIGNIFICANCE The work is significant as it links, for the first time, the protective action of selenium compounds against redox stress with particular chemical speciation using a direct measurement approach.

Abstract
Selenium is involved in the complex system of defense against oxidative stress in diabetes through its biological function of selenoproteins and the antioxidant enzyme. A case-control study was carried out to determine the association of plasma selenium with oxidative stress and body composition status presented in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patient and healthy control. This study involved 82 newly diagnosed T2DM patients and 82 healthy controls. Plasma selenium status was determined with Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. Body Mass Index, total body fat and visceral fat was assessed for body composition using Body Composition Analyzer (TANITA). Oxidative DNA damage and total antioxidant capacity were determined for oxidative stress biomarker status. In age, gender and BMI adjustment, no significant difference of plasma selenium level between T2DM and healthy controls was observed. There was as a significant difference of Oxidative DNA damage and total antioxidant capacity between T2DM patients and healthy controls with tail DNA% 20.62 [95% CI: 19.71,21.49] (T2DM), 17.67 [95% CI: 16.87,18.56] (control); log tail moment 0.41[95% CI: 0.30,0.52] (T2DM), 0.41[95% CI: 0.30,0.52] (control); total antioxidant capacity 0.56 [95% CI: 0.54,0.58] (T2DM), 0.60 [95% CI: 0.57,0.62] (control). Waist circumference, BMI, visceral fat, body fat and oxidative DNA damage in the T2DM group were significantly lower in the first plasma selenium tertile (38.65-80.90μg/L) compared to the second (80.91-98.20μg/L) and the third selenium tertiles (98.21-158.20μg/L). A similar trend, but not statistically significant, was observed in the control group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are elevated under diabetic conditions and associated with insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation in humans. It has been demonstrated that AGEs evoke oxidative and inflammatory reactions in endothelial cells through the interaction with a receptor for AGEs (RAGE). Here, we aimed to identify the cellular mechanisms by which AGEs exacerbate the endothelial dysfunction in human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs). METHODS 30 type 2 diabetic patients with or without coronary artery atherosclerosis were recruited for this study. Plasma levels of AGE peptides (AGE-p) were analyzed using flow injection assay. Endothelial function was tested by brachial artery flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD). Further investigations were performed to determine the effects and mechanisms of AGEs on endothelial dysfunction in HCAECs. RESULTS AGE-p was inversely associated with FMD in diabetic patients with coronary artery atherosclerosis in our study. After treated with AGEs, HCAECs showed significant reductions of eNOS mRNA and protein levels including eNOS and phospho-eNOS Ser1177, eNOS mRNA stability, eNOS enzyme activity, and cellular nitric oxide (NO) levels, whereas superoxide anion production was significantly increased. In addition, AGEs significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP content and catalase and superoxyde dismutase (SOD) activities, whereas it increased NADPH oxidase activity. Treatment of the cells with antioxidants SeMet, SOD mimetic MnTBAP and mitochondrial inhibitor thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTFA) effectively blocked these effects induced by AGEs. AGEs also increased phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinases p38 and ERK1/2, whereas the specific inhibitors of p38, ERK1/2, and TTFA effectively blocked AGEs-induced reactive oxygen species production and eNOS downregulation. CONCLUSIONS AGEs cause endothelial dysfunction by a mechanism associated with decreased eNOS expression and increased oxidative stress in HCAECs through activation of p38 and ERK1/2.

Abstract
SCOPE Selenium is an essential trace nutrient for human health. This study investigates the organic form of selenium, N-γ-(L-Glutamyl)-L-selenomethionine (Glu-SeMet), for its effects on aging indicators and stress resistance. The role of the selenoprotein TRXR-1 was also evaluated in Caenorhabditis elegans. METHODS AND RESULTS Glu-SeMet-treated wild-type N2 worms showed increased survival upon oxidative and thermal stress challenges. However, Glu-SeMet treatment did not extend the lifespan of wild-type N2 C. elegans under normal conditions (p = 0.128 for 0.01 μM and p = 0.799 for 10 μM Glu-SeMet). Under stress conditions, Glu-SeMet significantly increased the survival of wild-type N2 C. elegans, but the phenomenon was absent from trxr-1 null mutant worms. Furthermore, Glu-SeMet treatments significantly ameliorated aging indicators, including body bends, pumping rate, defecation duration, and lipofuscin accumulation in wild-type N2 nematodes. Nevertheless, the ameliorative effects by Glu-SeMet were absent in the trxr-1 null mutant worms. CONCLUSION The findings indicate that enhanced stress resistance and improved aging indicators by Glu-SeMet in C. elegans are mediated by the selenoprotein TRXR-1. Glu-SeMet has potential for improving health and also provides new insights into selenium's regulatory mechanisms in intact organisms.

Abstract
The affinity of metal ions for DNA is logical considering that the structure of DNA includes a phosphate backbone with a net-negative charge, a deoxyribose sugar with O atoms, and purine and pyrimidine bases that contain O and N atoms. DNA-metal ion interactions encompass a large area of research that ranges from the most fundamental characterization of DNA-metal ion binding to the role of DNA-bound metal ions in disease and human health. Alternative DNA base pairing mediated by metal binding is also being investigated and manipulated for applications in logic gates, molecular machines, and nanotechnology. This review highlights recent work aimed at understanding interactions of redox-active metal ions with DNA that provides a better understanding of the mechanisms by which various types of oxidative DNA damage (strand breakage and base modifications) occur. Antioxidants that mitigate oxidative DNA damage by coordinating metal ions that produce reactive oxygen species are addressed, as well as recent work on the effect of DNA-metal ion interactions and the efficacy of quinolone-based antibacterial drugs. Recent advances in metal-mediated base pairing that triggers conformational changes in DNA structure for use as selective metal ion sensors and novel nanotechnology applications are also included.

Abstract
L-Selenomethionine (SeMet), the predominant form of selenium acquired from the diet by humans, has been used as a supplement, and exhibit some important functions like cancer prevention and antioxidative defense. Its interactions with Pt(II) anticancer drugs have been characterized, but its redox reactions with platinum(IV) anticancer prodrugs have not been exploited. In this work, the oxidation of SeMet by Pt(IV) anticancer model compounds trans-[PtX2(CN)4](2-) (X = Cl, Br) was characterized. A stopped-flow spectrometer was used to record the rapid scan spectra and to follow the reaction kinetics over a wide pH range. An overall second-order rate law was derived: -d[Pt(IV)]/dt = k'[Pt(IV)][SeMet], where k' pertains to the observed second-order rate constants. The k'-pH profiles showed that k' increased only about 6 times even though the solution pH was varied from 0.25 to 10.5. The redox stoichiometry was determined as Δ[Pt(IV)]/Δ[SeMet] = 1 : (1.07 ± 0.07), suggesting that SeMet was oxidized to selenomethionine selenoxide. The selenoxide together with its hydrated form was identified explicitly by high resolution mass spectral analysis. A reaction mechanism was proposed which encompassed three parallel rate-determining steps relying on the protolytic species of SeMet. Rate constants of the rate-determining steps were obtained from the simulations of the k'-pH profiles. Activation parameters were determined for the reactions of the zwitterionic form of SeMet with the Pt(IV) complexes. A bridged electron transfer process is delineated in the rate-determining steps and several lines of evidence support the bridged electron transfer mode. Strikingly, reduction of [PtX2(CN)4](2-) by SeMet is 3.7 × 10(3)-5.7 × 10(4) times faster than that by L-methionine. Some potential biological consequences resulting from the strikingly fast reduction are discussed.

Abstract
The toxicity of selenium (Se) as an antioxidant supplement in the treatment of arthritis is debatable. In this study, Dextrin stabilized Se nanoparticles (SeNP) of size 64 nm ± 0.158 were used to explore its effects as a potent antioxidant with reduced toxicity in both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro toxicity of SeNP was determined using cytotoxicity assay. In vitro interactions of SeNP with DNA and protein was established. Subacute toxicity of SeNP was studied. Wistar rats with complete freunds adjuvant induced arthritis were used. Various concentrations of SeNP per kg body weight were fed orally daily upto to 21 days. Arthritic profile based on paw swelling, histopathological changes in joints, blood indices, and antioxidant enzymes level in organs such as liver, kidney, and spleen were investigated. Dextrin-SeNP when interacted with NIH-3T3 cells showed 15% cytotoxicity at 100 µg/mL whereas, bulk Se showed 95% at the same concentration. SeNP at 250 µg/mL showed protective effect on DNA. Interaction of SeNP with BSA showed increase in quenching of BSA fluorescence. SeNP did not show any subacute toxicity at concentration as high as 5 mg/kg b.w. in Wistar rats. SeNP at a concentration of 250 µg/kg b.w. acted as potent anti-inflammatory agent and significantly reduced (p < 0.05) arthritis induced parameters. The enzymatic antioxidant levels in liver, kidney, and spleen were restored significantly (p < 0.05) at 500 µg/kg b.w. while CRP was regained to normal at concentration of 100 µg/kg b.w. concluding SeNP at 500 µg/kg b.w. can be a potential antiarthritic drug supplement. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Existing evidence on the effects of manganese and selenium during fetal life on neurodevelopmental disorders is inadequate. This study aims to investigate the hypothesized relationship between fetal exposure to manganese and selenium and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) diagnosis in childhood. Children born between 1978 and 2000 with ADHD (n=166) were identified at the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in Malmö, Sweden. Controls from the same region (n=166) were selected from the Medical Birth Register and were matched for year of birth and maternal country of birth. Manganese and selenium were measured in umbilical cord serum. The median cord serum concentrations of manganese were 4.3μg/L in the cases and 4.1μg/L in the controls. The corresponding concentrations of selenium were 47 and 48μg/L. When the exposures were analyzed as continuous variables no associations between cord manganese or selenium concentration and ADHD were observed. However, children with selenium concentrations above the 90th percentile had 2.5 times higher odds (95% confidence interval 1.3-5.1) of having ADHD compared to those with concentrations between the 10th and 90th percentiles. There was no significant interaction between manganese and selenium exposure (p=0.08). This study showed no association between manganese concentrations in umbilical cord serum and ADHD. The association between ADHD diagnoses in children with relatively high cord selenium was unexpected and should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
Because sulfur and selenium antioxidants can prevent oxidative damage, numerous animal and clinical trials have investigated the ability of these compounds to prevent the oxidative stress that is an underlying cause of cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer, among others. One of the most common sources of oxidative damage is metal-generated hydroxyl radical; however, very little research has focused on determining the metal-binding abilities and structural attributes that affect oxidative damage prevention by sulfur and selenium compounds. In this review, we describe our ongoing investigations into sulfur and selenium antioxidant prevention of iron- and copper-mediated oxidative DNA damage. We determined that many sulfur and selenium compounds inhibit Cu(I)-mediated DNA damage and that DNA damage prevention varies dramatically when Fe(II) is used in place of Cu(I) to generate hydroxyl radical. Oxidation potentials of the sulfur or selenium compounds do not correlate with their ability to prevent DNA damage, highlighting the importance of metal coordination rather than reactive oxygen species scavenging as an antioxidant mechanism. Additional gel electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, and UV-visible studies confirmed sulfur and selenium antioxidant binding to Cu(I) and Fe(II). Ultimately, our studies established that both the hydroxyl-radical-generating metal ion and the chemical environment of the sulfur or selenium significantly affect DNA damage prevention and that metal coordination is an essential mechanism for these antioxidants.

Abstract
Selenoproteins (containing the 21st proteinogenic amino acid selenocysteine) play important roles throughout all domains of life. Surprisingly, a number of taxa have small selenoproteomes, and Hymenopteran insects appear to have fully lost selenoproteins. Nevertheless, their genomes contain genes for several proteins of the selenocysteine insertion machinery, including selenophosphate synthetase 1 (SELD/SPS1). At present, it is unknown whether this enzyme has a selenoprotein-independent function, and whether the gene is actually translated into a protein in Hymenoptera. Here, we report that SELD/SPS1 is present as a protein in the accessory glands of males of the ant Cardiocondyla obscurior. It appears to be more abundant in the glands of winged disperser males than in those of wingless, local fighter males. Mating increases the lifespan and fecundity of queens in C. obscurior, and mating with winged males has a stronger effect on queen fitness than mating with a wingless male. SELD/SPS 1 has been suggested to play an important role in oxidative stress defense, and might therefore be involved in the life-prolonging effect of mating.

Protective effects of sodium selenite against aflatoxin B1-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in broiler spleen. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2013; 10:2834-44.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective role of sodium selenite on aflatoxin B1-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in spleen of broilers. Two hundred one-day-old male broilers, divided into five groups, were fed with basal diet (control group), 0.3 mg/kg AFB1 (AFB1 group), 0.3 mg/kg AFB1 + 0.2 mg/kg Se (+Se group I), 0.3 mg/kg AFB1 + 0.4 mg/kg Se (+Se group II) and 0.3 mg/kg AFB1 + 0.6 mg/kg Se (+Se group III), respectively. According to biochemical assays, AFB1 significantly decreased the activities of glutathione peroxidase, total superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase, catalase and the level of glutathione hormone, while it increased the level of malondialdehyde. Moreover, AFB1 increased the percentage of apoptosis cells by flow cytometry and the occurrence of apoptotic cells by TUNEL assay. Simultaneous supplementation with sodium selenite restored these parameters to be close to those in control group. In conclusion, sodium selenite exhibited protective effects on AFB1-induced splenic toxicity in broilers by inhibiting oxidative stress and excessive apoptosis.

Abstract
Selenium is a trace element essential for normal physiological processes. Organic selenium-containing amino acids, such as selenocysteine (Sec) / selenocystine and selenomethionine (SeMet, the major dietary form), can provide antioxidant benefits by acting both as direct antioxidants as well as a source of selenium for synthesis of selenium-dependent antioxidant and repair proteins (e.g., glutathione peroxidases, thioredoxin reductases, methionine sulfoxide reductases). The direct antioxidant actions of these amino acids arise from the nucleophilic properties of the ionized selenol (RSe(-), which predominates over the neutral form at physiological pH values) and the ease of oxidation of Sec and SeMet. This results in higher rate constants for reaction with multiple oxidants, than for the corresponding thiols/thioethers. Furthermore, the resulting oxidation products are more readily and rapidly reversed by both enzyme and nonenzymatic reactions. The antioxidant effects of these seleno species can therefore be catalytic. Seleno amino acids may also chelate redox-active metal ions. The presence of Sec in the catalytic site of selenium-dependent antioxidant enzymes enhances the kinetic properties and broadens the catalytic activity of antioxidant enzymes against biological oxidants when compared with sulfur-containing species. However, while normal physiological selenium levels afford protection, when compared with deficiency, excessive selenium may induce damage and adverse effects, with this being manifest, for example, as an increased incidence of type 2 diabetes. Further studies examining the availability of redox-active selenium species and their mechanisms and kinetics of action are therefore of critical importance in the potential development of seleno species as a therapeutic strategy.
