Abstract
The most prevalent type of cancer among males is prostate cancer. Survival is considered quite good, but it can be further improved when risk factors are optimized. One of these factors is micronutrients, including Se and Zn. To our knowledge, the interaction between Se and Zn and prostate cancer remains undescribed. This study aimed to investigate the optimal levels of selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn) and their impact on the survival of individuals diagnosed with prostate cancer. A total of 338 prostate cancer patients were enrolled in this study, which was conducted in Poland between 2009 and 2015. Mass spectrometry, which uses inductively coupled plasma mass, was used to assess serum element levels before treatment. The study participants were categorized into quartiles (QI-QIV) based on the distributions of Se and Zn levels observed among surviving participants. Cox regression was used to assess the association between serum Se and Zn levels and the survival of prostate cancer patients. Our results reveal the effect of combined Se and Zn levels on survival in prostate cancer patients (SeQI-ZnQI vs. SeQIV-ZnQIV; HR = 20.9). These results need further research to establish Se/Zn norms for different populations.

Maternal Selenium-Enriched Yeast Supplementation in Sows Enhances Offspring Growth and Antioxidant Status through the Nrf2/Keap1 Pathway. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:2064. [PMID: 38136184 PMCID: PMC10740904 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12122064] [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: 11/07/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of maternal selenium-enriched yeast (SeY) supplementation during late gestation and lactation on sow performance, transfer of selenium (Se) and redox status, and gut microbiota community, as well as on the gut health of offspring. Seventy pregnant sows on day 85 of gestation were randomly allocated to the following two treatments: (1) sows who were fed a basal diet (basal diet contained 0.3 mg/kg Se as Na2SeO3, n = 35); (2) and sows who were fed a SeY-supplemented diet (basal diet with 0.2 mg/kg Se as SeY, n = 35). The offspring piglets were only cross-fostered within the group on day 3 of lactation (L3) according to the pig farm epidemic prevention policy. The plasma, milk, and feces samples from 10 sows, as well as plasma and intestinal samples per treatment, were collected on L1 and L21, respectively. Our results showed that maternal SeY supplementation increased the first week average weight and ADG of piglets (p < 0.05). Compared with the CON group, the SeY supplementation increased the Se content in the plasma and milk of sows and the plasma of piglets on L1 and L21 (p < 0.05). In addition, in sows, the levels of fat in the milk on L21, the level of IgA, T-AOC, and GSH-Px in the plasma on L21, and the level of T-AOC and GSH-Px in the colostrum were increased, while the MDA content was decreased in the plasma on L1 and in the colostrum and milk on L14 (p < 0.05). In the piglet plasma, the levels of IgA on L1 and L21, GSH-Px on L1, and GSH on L21 were increased, while the MDA content was decreased on L1 (p < 0.05). Maternal SeY supplementation up-regulated the small intestinal protein abundances of MUC1, E-cadherin, ZO-1, occludin, and claudin and activated the Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway in weaned offspring piglets. The 16S rRNA sequencing results showed that fecal microbiota had distinct separations during lactation, and the relative abundances of unclassified_f_Lachnospiraceae, Prevotaceae_UCG-001, and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group were increased on L1. Collectively, the current findings suggest that maternal SeY supplementation during late gestation and lactation could improve the piglet's growth performance, Se status, antioxidant capacity and immunoglobulins transfer at the first week of lactation, as well as alter the fecal microbiota composition by increasing antioxidative-related and SCFA-producing microbiota in sows. These changes contributed to enhancing the small intestinal barrier function and activating the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway in offspring.

Disordered gut microbiota promotes atrial fibrillation by aggravated conduction disturbance and unbalanced linoleic acid/SIRT1 signaling. Biochem Pharmacol 2023; 213:115599. [PMID: 37196685 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115599] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests an association of dysbiotic gut microbiota (GM) with atrial fibrillation (AF). The current study aimed to determine whether aberrant GM promotes AF development. A fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) mouse model demonstrated that dysbiotic GM is sufficient to enhance AF susceptibility assessed by transesophageal burst pacing. Compared with recipients transplanted with GM obtained from healthy subjects (FMT-CH), the prolonged P wave duration and an enlarging tendency for the left atrium were detected in recipients transplanted with AF GM (FMT-AF). Meanwhile, the disrupted localizations of connexin 43 and N-cadherin and increased expression levels of phospho-CaMKII and phospho-RyR2, were observed in the atrium of FMT-AF, which indicated aggravated electrical remodeling caused by the altered gut flora. Specifically, exacerbated fibrosis disarray, collagen deposition, α-SMA expression, and inflammation in the atrium were also confirmed to be transmissible by the GM. Furthermore, deteriorated intestinal epithelial barrier and intestinal permeability, accompanied by disturbing metabolomic features in both feces and plasma, especially decreased linoleic acid (LA), were identified in FMT-AF mice. Subsequently, the anti-inflammatory role of LA among the imbalanced SIRT1 signaling discovered in the atrium of FMT-AF was confirmed in mouse HL-1 cells treated with LPS/nigericin, LA, and SIRT1 knockdown. This study provides preliminary insights into the causal role of aberrant GM in the pathophysiology of AF, suggesting the GM-intestinal barrier-atrium axis might participate in the vulnerable substrates for AF development, and the GM could be utilized as an environmental target in AF management.

FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 138:108847. [PMID: 37230306 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2023.108847] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Selenium (Se), one of the essential trace elements of fish, regulates immune system function and maintains immune homeostasis. Muscle is the important tissue that generate movement and maintain posture. At present, there are few studies on the effects of Se deficiency on carp muscle. In this experiment, carps were fed with dietary with different Se content to successfully establish a Se deficiency model. Low-Se dietary led to the decrease of Se content in muscle. Histological analysis showed that Se deficiency resulted in muscle fiber fragmentation, dissolution, disarrangement and increased myocyte apoptosis. Transcriptome revealed a total of 367 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened, including 213 up-regulated DEGs and 154 down-regulated DEGs. Bioinformatics analysis showed that DEGs were concentrated in oxidation-reduction process, inflammation and apoptosis, and were related to NF-κB and MAPKs pathways. Further exploration of the mechanism showed that Se deficiency led to excessive accumulation of ROS, decreased the activity of antioxidant enzymes, and also resulted in increased expression of the NF-κB and MAPKs pathways. In addition, Se deficiency significantly increased the expressions of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, and the pro-apoptotic factors BAX, p53, caspase-7 and caspase-3, while decreased the expressions of anti-apoptotic factors Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl. In conclusion, Se deficiency reduced the activities of antioxidant enzymes and led to excessive accumulation of ROS, which caused oxidative stress and affected the immune function of carp, leading to muscle inflammation and apoptosis.

Abstract
The objective of this review was to analyze the effect of dietary selenium on oxidative stress in horses by considering past and recent bibliographic sources. Some research was done on oxidative stress, related pathologies and how selenium regulates oxidative stress. Oxidizing molecules are molecules that can accept electrons from the substances with which they react. Oxidizing These molecules, of oxidizing, are found naturally in any organism, and there are antioxidant mechanisms that regulate its activity. However, when the body is stressed, oxidizing molecules outperform the antioxidants, causing an imbalance known as oxidative stress. Among antioxidant molecules, selenium can act as an important antioxidant in the body. The antioxidant activity is based on an enzyme called glutathione peroxidase, which depends on selenium and controls the activity of oxidizing molecules.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of sows with yeast cultures (XPC) during late gestation and lactation on the immune performance of their weaned offspring under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stress. A total of 40 Landrace × Yorkshire sows (parity 3 to 7) with similar backfat thickness were selected and randomly divided into two treatment groups: a control group (basal diet) and a yeast culture group (basal diet + 2.0 g/kg XPC). The trial was conducted from day 90 of gestation to day 21 of lactation. At the end of the experiment, 12 piglets with similar weights were selected from each group and slaughtered 4 h after intraperitoneal injection with either saline or LPS. The results showed that the concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the thymus and tumor necrosis factor-α in the liver increased significantly (P < 0.05) in weaned piglets after LPS injection. Maternal dietary supplementation with XPC significantly reduced the concentration of inflammatory factors in the plasma and thymus of weaned piglets (P < 0.05). LPS injection significantly upregulated the expression of some tissue inflammation-related genes, significantly downregulated the expression of intestinal tight junction-related genes, and significantly elevated the protein expression of liver phospho-nuclear factor kappa B (p-NF-κB), the phospho-inhibitory subunit of NF-κB (p-IκBα), phospho-c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK), Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), and the inhibitory subunit of NF-κB (IκBα) in weaned piglets (P < 0.05). Maternal dietary supplementation with XPC significantly downregulated the gene expression of IL-6 and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in the thymus and decreased the protein expression of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in the liver of weaned piglets (P < 0.05). In summary, injection of LPS induced an inflammatory response in weaned piglets and destroyed the intestinal barrier. Maternal dietary supplementation of XPC improved the immune performance of weaned piglets by inhibiting inflammatory responses.

Rao ZX, Tokach MD, Woodworth JC, DeRouchey JM, Goodband RD, Gebhardt JT. Evaluation of selenium source on nursery pig growth performance, serum and tissue selenium concentrations, and serum antioxidant status. Transl Anim Sci 2023; 7:txad049. [PMID: 37250345 PMCID: PMC10224732 DOI: 10.1093/tas/txad049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
A total of 3,888 pigs (337 × 1050, PIC, Hendersonville, TN; initially 6.0 ± 0.23 kg) were used in a 35-d study. At the time of placement, pens of pigs were weighed and allotted to one of three dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design with a blocking structure including sow farm origin, date of entry into the facility, and average pen body weight. A total of 144 pens were used with 72 double-sided 5-hole stainless steel fence line feeders, with one feeder serving as the experimental unit. For each feeder, 1 pen contained 27 gilts, and 1 pen contained 27 barrows. There were 24 replicates per dietary treatment. Diets were fed in three phases, and all contained 0.3 mg/kg added Se. A common phase 1 diet contained added Se from sodium selenite and was fed in pelleted form to all pigs from day 7 to approximately day 0. Three Se sources sodium selenite, Se yeast, and hydroxy-selenomethionine (OH-SeMet) were used to formulate three experimental diets in meal form for phase 2 (days 0 to 14) and phase 3 (days 14 to 35). During the pre-treatment period (days 7 to 0), there was a tendency (P = 0.097) of a difference in average daily feed intake between treatments, although no significant pairwise differences were observed (P > 0.05). There were no other differences in growth performance between treatments from days 7 to 0. Clinical disease attributed to Streptococcus suis was observed within the trial between days 0 and 14, and water-soluble antimicrobial therapy was administered to all treatment groups for 7 d. From days 0 to 35, pigs fed OH-SeMet tended to have decreased average daily gain (P < 0.10) and increased (P < 0.05) serum and tissue selenium concentration compared to other treatments. There was marginally significant evidence of a source × day interaction (P = 0.027) for total antioxidant capacity where the numerical increase over time was less for the OH-SeMet than sodium selenite or selenium yeast treatments. There was no difference (P > 0.05) in antioxidant status as measured by serum glutathione peroxidase or thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay between treatments. In summary, compared to sodium selenite and selenium yeast, OH-SeMet may have a greater bioavailability as indicated by increased serum and tissue selenium concentration; however, antioxidant status was similar between treatments and OH-SeMet tended to reduce growth performance compared with pigs fed sodium selenite.

Abstract
Particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) is a widely known atmospheric pollutant which can induce the aging-related pulmonary diseases such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In recent years, with the increasing atmospheric pollution, airborne fine PM2.5, which is an integral part of air pollutants, has become a thorny problem. Hence, this study focused on the effect of PM2.5 on cellular senescence in the lung, identifying which inflammatory pathway mediated PM2.5-induced cellular senescence and how to play a protective role against this issue. Our data suggested that PM2.5 induced time- and concentration-dependent increasement in the senescence of A549 cells. Using an inhibitor of cGAS (PF-06928215) and an inhibitor of NF-κB (BAY 11-7082), it was revealed that PM2.5-induced senescence was regulated by inflammatory response, which was closely related to the cGAS/STING/NF-κB pathway activated by DNA damage. Moreover, our study also showed that the pretreatment with selenomethionine (Se-Met) could inhibit inflammatory response and prevent cellular senescence by hindering cGAS/STING/NF-κB pathway in A549 cells exposed to PM2.5. Furthermore, in vivo C57BL/6J mice model demonstrated that aging of mouse lung tissue caused by PM2.5 was attenuated by decreasing cGAS expression after Se-Met treatment. Our findings indicated that selenium made a defense capability for PM2.5-induced cellular senescence in the lung, which provided a novel insight for resisting the harm of PM2.5 to human health.

Abstract
Oxidative damage induced by ethanol and its metabolites is one of the factors that fuels the development of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Selenium (Se) is an effective cofactor for glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and has antioxidant effects that improve ALD. In patients with ALD, ethanol-induced oxidative damage inhibits the synthesis of related Se-containing proteins such as: selenoprotein P (Sepp1), albumin (ALB), and GPx in the liver, thus decreasing the overall Se level in patients. Both Se deficiency and excess can affect the expression of GPx, resulting in damage to the antioxidant defense system. This damage enhances oxidative stress by increasing the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body, which aggravates the inflammatory response, lipid metabolism disorder, and lipid peroxidation and worsens ALD symptoms. A cascade of oxidative damages caused by ALD will deplete selenium deposition in the body, stimulate the expression of Gpx1, Sepp1, and Gpx4, and thus mobilize systemic selenoproteins, which can restore GPx activity in the hepatocytes of ALD patients, reduce the levels of reactive oxygen species and alleviate oxidative stress, the inflammatory response, lipid metabolism disorder, and lipid peroxidation, thus helping to mitigate ALD. This review provides a reference for future ALD studies that evaluate the regulation of Se levels and contributes to studies on the potential pathological mechanisms of Se imbalance in ALD.

Abstract
The role of 2-hydroxy-(4-methylseleno)butanoic acid (OH-SeMet), a form of organic selenium (Se), in selenoprotein synthesis and inflammatory response of THP1-derived macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been investigated. Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity, GPX1 gene expression, selenoprotein P (SELENOP) protein and gene expression, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production were studied in Se-deprived conditions (6 and 24 h). Then, macrophages were supplemented with OH-SeMet for 72 h and GPX1 and SELENOP gene expression were determined. The protective effect of OH-SeMet against oxidative stress was studied in H2O2-stimulated macrophages, as well as the effect on GPX1 gene expression, oxidative stress, cytokine production (TNFα, IL-1β and IL-10), and phagocytic and killing capacities after LPS stimulation. Se deprivation induced a reduction in GPX activity, GPX1 gene expression, and SELENOP protein and gene expression at 24 h. OH-SeMet upregulated GPX1 and SELENOP gene expression and decreased ROS production after H2O2 treatment. In LPS-stimulated macrophages, OH-SeMet upregulated GPX1 gene expression, enhanced phagocytic and killing capacities, and reduced ROS and cytokine production. Therefore, OH-SeMet supplementation supports selenoprotein expression and controls oxidative burst and cytokine production while enhancing phagocytic and killing capacities, modulating the inflammatory response, and avoiding the potentially toxic insult produced by highly activated macrophages.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient that functions in the body mainly in the form of selenoproteins. The selenoprotein contains 25 members in humans that exhibit a number of functions. Selenoproteins have immunomodulatory functions and can enhance the ability of immune system to regulate in a variety of ways, which can have a preventive effect on immune-related diseases. Food allergy is a specific immune response that has been increasing in number in recent years, significantly reducing the quality of life and posing a major threat to human health. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the role of Se and selenoproteins in regulating the immune system and how dysregulation of these processes may lead to food allergies. Thus, we can explain the mechanism by which Se and selenoproteins boost immunity to prevent food allergies.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the role of selenomethionine (SeMet) in alleviating AFB1 induced intestinal injury by inhibiting intestinal oxidative stress. Forty 35-day-old rabbits were divided randomly into 4 groups (control group, AFB1 group, 0.2 mg/kg Se + AFB1 group, 0.4 mg/kg Se + AFB1 group). From the first day of the experiment, the two treatment groups were fed 0.2 mg/kg SeMet or 0.4 mg/kg SeMet daily for 21 days. On the 17th day, all rabbits in the model group and the two treatment groups were given intragastric AFB1 daily for 5 days. The ADG, ADFI and FCR of the rabbits were examined. Rabbit jejunum tissue was collected for hematoxylin- eosin staining (HE), PCNA detection, immunofluorescence and WB. Intestinal tissue IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that the production performance was decreased, the levels of ROS and MDA were increased in intestinal tissues, the activity of antioxidant enzymes was decreased and the expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 were decreased in AFB1-exposed rabbits. In addition, AFB1 induces an inflammatory response in the jejunum and promotes the expression of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β. SeMet pretreatment significantly improved the performance of the rabbits, alleviated intestinal oxidative stress and the inflammatory response. Therefore, we confirmed that SeMet protects against AFB1 induced oxidative damage and improves productivity in rabbits by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential trace mineral important for the maintenance of homeostasis in animals and humans. It evinces a strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and potential antimicrobial capacity. Selenium biological function is primarily achieved by its presence in selenoproteins as a form of selenocysteine. Selenium deficiency may result in an array of health disorders, affecting many organs and systems; to prevent this, dietary supplementation, mainly in the forms of organic (i.e., selenomethionine and selenocysteine) inorganic (i.e., selenate and selenite) sources is used. In pigs as well as other food animals, dietary selenium supplementation has been used for improving growth performance, immune function, and meat quality. A substantial body of knowledge demonstrates that dietary selenium supplementation is positively associated with overall animal health especially due to its immunomodulatory activity and protection from oxidative damage. Selenium also possesses potential antiviral activity and this is achieved by protecting immune cells against oxidative damage and decreasing viral replication. In this review we endeavor to combine established and novel knowledge on the beneficial effects of dietary selenium supplementation, its antioxidant and immunomodulatory actions, and the putative antimicrobial effect thereof. Furthermore, our review demonstrates the gaps in knowledge pertaining to the use of selenium as an antiviral, underscoring the need for further in vivo and in vitro studies, particularly in pigs.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is assumed to promote the follicle development by attenuating oxidative stress. The current study was developed to evaluate the effects of dietary 2-hydroxy-4-methylselenobutanoic acid (HMSeBA) supplementation on the follicle development in vivo and on the function of ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) in vitro. Thirty-six gilts were randomly assigned to fed control diet (CON), Na2SeO3 diet (0.3 mg Se/kg) or HMSeBA diet (0.3 mg Se/kg). The results showed that HMSeBA and Na2SeO3 supplementation both increased the total selenium content in liver and serum compared with control, while HMSeBA increased the total selenium content in liver compared with Na2SeO3 group. HMSeBA tended to increase the total selenium content in ovary compared with control. HMSeBA and Na2SeO3 supplementation both increased the weight of uteri in gilts at the third estrus. Moreover, HMSeBA supplementation down-regulated the gene expression of growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9) and bone morpho-genetic protein-15 (BMP-15) in cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs). HMSeBA supplementation decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) content in serum, liver and ovary, increased activity of T-AOC in liver, TXNRD in ovary and GPX in serum, liver and ovary, while up-regulated the liver GPX2, SOD1 and TXNRD1, ovarian GPX1 gene expression. In vitro, HMSeBA treatment promoted GCs' proliferation and secretion of estradiol (E2). HMSeBA treatment increased the activity of T-AOC, T-SOD, GPX, TXNRD and decreased MDA content in GCs in vitro. Meanwhile, HMSeBA treatment up-regulated SOD2 and GPX1 gene expression in GCs in vitro. In conclusion, HMSeBA supplementation is more conducive to promoting follicle development by antioxidant pathway.

Maternal Organic Selenium Supplementation Relieves Intestinal Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Piglets by Enhancing the Expression of Glutathione Peroxidase 4 and Selenoprotein S. Front Nutr 2022; 9:900421. [PMID: 35600832 PMCID: PMC9121856 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.900421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which can be induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and multiple factors, is associated with numerous intestinal diseases. The organic selenium source 2-hydroxy-4-methylselenobutanoic acid (HMSeBA), has been proved to decrease intestinal inflammation and autophagy by improving the expression of selenoproteins. However, it remains unclear whether HMSeBA could alleviate intestinal ER stress by decreasing excessive production of ROS products. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of maternal HMSeBA supplementation on the regulation of intestinal ER stress of their offspring and the regulatory mechanism. Sows were supplemented with HMSeBA during gestation and jejunal epithelial (IPEC-J2) cells were treatment with HMSeBA. Results showed that maternal HMSeBA supplementation significantly upregulated mRNA level of selenoprotein S (SELS) in the jejunum of newborn and weaned piglets compared with the control group, while decreased the gene expression and protein abundance of ER stress markers in the jejunum of LPS challenged weaned piglets. In addition, HMSeBA treatment significantly increased the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and SELS, while decreased ROS level and the expression of ER stress markers induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in IPEC-J2 cells. Furthermore, knockdown of GPX4 did not enhance the ERS signal induced by H2O2, but the lack of GPX4 would cause further deterioration of ER stress signal in the absence of SELS. In conclusion, maternal HMSeBA supplementation might alleviate ROS induced intestinal ER stress by improving the expression of SELS and GPX4 in their offspring. Thus, maternal HMSeBA supplementation might be benefit for the intestinal health of their offspring.

Abstract
The thymus and spleen are the main reservoir for T lymphocytes, which can regulate the innate immune response and provide protection against pathogens and tissue damage. Oxidative stress, excessive inflammation, abnormal autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress can all lead to dysfunction of the thymus and spleen. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of maternal 2-hydroxy-4-methylselenobutanoic acid (HMSeBA, an organic Se source) supplementation during pregnancy on the selenoprotein expression, inflammation, ER stress and autophagy of their young offspring's thymus and spleen. Thirty sows were randomly assigned to receive one of the following two diets during gestation: control diet (control, basal diet, n = 15) or HMSeBA supplemented diet (HMSeBA, basal diet +0.3 mg Se kg-1 as HMSeBA, n = 15). Tissues of thymus and spleen were collected from the offspring at birth and weaning after the lipopolysaccharide challenge. Results showed that maternal HMSeBA supplementation significantly up-regulated the gene expression of selenoproteins in the thymus and spleen of newborn piglets compared with the basal diet (p < 0.05), as well as the protein abundance of GPX1 and GPX4 (p < 0.05). In addition, maternal HMSeBA supplementation effectively decreased the expression of inflammation and autophagy related proteins in the thymus and spleen of newborn piglets as compared with the control group (p < 0.05). In weaning piglets, maternal HMSeBA significantly increased the antioxidative capacity of thymus and spleen (p < 0.05), and reversed LPS induced MDA content as compared with the control group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, maternal HMSeBA supplementation during gestation reversed the activation of the MAPK/NF-κB pathway, ER stress and autophagy induced by the LPS challenge in the thymus and spleen of weaning piglets (p < 0.05). In conclusion, maternal HMSeBA supplementation during gestation could decrease the level of inflammation, autophagy and ER stress in the thymus and spleen of young offspring by improving the antioxidative capacity and selenoprotein expression in these tissues. Therefore, maternal HMSeBA supplementation during gestation might be beneficial for the immune function of their offspring by alleviating inflammation, autophagy and ER stress levels in the thymus and spleen. This study showed more evidence for the function of Se on mater-offspring integrated nutrition.
