Abstract
As one of the indispensable trace elements for both humans and animals, selenium widely participates in multiple physiological processes and facilitates strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune enhancing abilities. The biological functions of selenium are primarily driven by its presence in selenoproteins as a form of selenocysteine. Broilers are highly sensitive to selenium intake. Recent reports have demonstrated that selenium deficiency can adversely affect the quality of skeletal muscles and the economic value of broilers; the regulatory roles of several key selenoproteins (e.g., GPX1, GPX4, TXNRD1, TXNRD3, SelK, SelT, and SelW) have been identified. Starting from the selenium metabolism and its biological utilization in the skeletal muscle, the effect of the selenium antioxidant function on broiler meat quality is discussed in detail. The progress of research into the prevention of skeletal muscle injury by selenium and selenoproteins is also summarized. The findings emphasize the necessity of in vivo and in vitro research, and certain mechanism problems are identified, which aids their further examination. This mini-review will be helpful to provide a theoretical basis for the further study of regulatory mechanisms of selenium nutrition in edible poultry.

Abstract
Se deficiency causes impaired growth of fish skeletal muscle due to the retarded hypertrophy of muscle fibres. However, the inner mechanisms remain unclear. According to our previous researches, we infer this phenomenon is associated with Se deficiency-induced high concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which could suppress the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) pathway-mediated protein synthesis by inhibiting protein kinase B (Akt), an upstream protein of TORC1. To test this hypothesis, juvenile zebrafish (45 d post-fertilisation) were fed a basal Se-adequate diet or a basal Se-deficient diet or them supplemented with an antioxidant (DL-α-tocopherol acetate, designed as VE) or a TOR activator (MHY1485) for 30 d. Zebrafish fed Se-deficient diets exhibited a clear Se-deficient status in skeletal muscle, which was not influenced by dietary VE and MHY1485. Se deficiency significantly elevated ROS concentrations, inhibited Akt activity and TORC1 pathway, suppressed protein synthesis in skeletal muscle, and impaired hypertrophy of skeletal muscle fibres. However, these negative effects of Se deficiency were partly (except that on ROS concentration) alleviated by dietary MHY1485 and completely alleviated by dietary VE. These data strongly support our speculation that Se deficiency-induced high concentration of ROS exerts a clear inhibiting effect on TORC1 pathway-mediated protein synthesis by regulating Akt activity, thereby restricting the hypertrophy of skeletal muscle fibres in fish. Our findings provide a mechanistic explanation for Se deficiency-caused retardation of fish skeletal muscle growth, contributing to a better understanding of the nutritional necessity and regulatory mechanisms of Se in fish muscle physiology.

Abstract
Broiler chicks are fast-growing and susceptible to dietary selenium (Se) deficiency. This study sought to reveal the underlying mechanisms of how Se deficiency induces key organ dysfunctions in broilers. Day-old male chicks (n=6 cages/diet, 6 chicks/cage) were fed with a Se-deficient diet (Se-Def, 0.047 mg Se/kg) or the Se-Def+0.3 mg Se/kg (Control, 0.345 mg Se/kg) for 6 weeks. The serum, liver, pancreas, spleen, heart, and pectoral muscle of the broilers were collected at week 6 to assay for Se concentration, histopathology, serum metabolome, and tissue transcriptome. Compared with the Control group, Se deficiency induced growth retardation and histopathological lesions and reduced Se concentration in the five organs. Integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics analysis revealed that dysregulation of immune and redox homeostasis related biological processes and pathways contributed to Se deficiency-induced multiple tissue damage in the broilers. Meanwhile, four metabolites in the serum, daidzein, epinephrine, L-aspartic acid and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, interacted with differentially expressed genes with antioxidative effects and immunity among all the five organs, which contributed to the metabolic diseases induced by Se deficiency. Overall, this study systematically elucidated the underlying molecular mechanisms in the pathogenesis of Se deficiency-related diseases, which provides a better understanding of the significance of Se-mediated heath in animals.

Abstract
Selenium deficiency is a prevalent micronutrient deficiency that poses a major health concern worldwide. This study aimed to shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying selenium deficiency using a chick model. Chickens were divided into control and selenium deficient groups. Plasma samples were collected to measure selenium concentration and transcriptome analyse were performed on oviduct samples. The results showed that selenium deficiency led to a significant reduction in plasma selenium levels and altered the expression of 10,266 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). These DEGs primarily regulated signal transduction and cell motility. The molecular function includes GTPase regulatory activity, and KEGG pathway analysis showed that they were mainly involved in the signal transduction. By using Cytoscape and CancerGeneNet tool, we identified 8 modules and 10 hub genes (FRK, JUN, PTPRC, ACTA2, MST1R, SDC4, SDC1, CXCL12, MX1 and EZR) associated with receptor tyrosine kinase pathway, Wnt and mTOR signaling pathways that may be closely related to cancer. These hub genes could be served as precise diagnostic and prognostic candidate biomarkers of selenium deficiency and potential targets for treatment strategies in both animals and humans. This study sheds light on the molecular basis of selenium deficiency and its potential impact on public health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional muscular dystrophy (NMD) in animals is induced by dietary selenium (Se) deficiency. OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to explore the underlying mechanism of Se deficiency-induced NMD in broilers. METHODS One-day-old male Cobb broilers (n = 6 cages/diet, 6 birds/cage) were fed a Se-deficient diet (Se-Def, 47 μg Se/kg) or the Se-Def supplemented with 0.3 mg Se/kg (control) for 6 wk. Thigh muscles of broilers were collected at week 6 for measuring Se concentration, histopathology, and transcriptome and metabolome assays. The transcriptome and metabolome data were analyzed with bioinformatics tools and other data were analyzed with Student's t tests. RESULTS Compared with the control, Se-Def induced NMD in broilers, including reduced (P < 0.05) final body weight (30.7%) and thigh muscle size, reduced number and cross-sectional area of fibers, and loose organization of muscle fibers. Compared with the control, Se-Def decreased (P < 0.05) the Se concentration in the thigh muscle by 52.4%. It also downregulated (P < 0.05) GPX1, SELENOW, TXNRD1-3, DIO1, SELENOF, H, I, K, M, and U by 23.4-80.3% in the thigh muscle compared with the control. Multi-omics analyses indicated that the levels of 320 transcripts and 33 metabolites were significantly altered (P < 0.05) in response to dietary Se deficiency. Integrated transcriptomics and metabolomics analysis revealed that one-carbon metabolism, including the folate and methionine cycle, was primarily dysregulated by Se deficiency in the thigh muscles of broilers. CONCLUSIONS Dietary Se deficiency induced NMD in broiler chicks, potentially with the dysregulation of one-carbon metabolism. These findings may provide novel treatment strategies for muscle disease.

Abstract
The element, Selenium (Se), has an essential nutritive and biological role as a trace mineral known primarily for its vital antioxidant functions as a constituent of the selenoenzyme, glutathione peroxidase. However, Se also has a much more global biological impact beyond antioxidant function. The objective of this review is to present an overview of prior research on the extra-antioxidant effects of Se with a key focus on skeletal muscle mitochondrial energetics. Cognizance of these additional functions of Se is requisite when formulating and recommending dietary supplementation of Se in humans or animals. Chief amongst its myriad of biological contributions, Se influences mitochondrial capacity and function and, subsequently, muscular health. Dietary Se supplementation has been shown to increase skeletal muscle mitochondrial volume density and within some cell lines, Se treatment increases mitochondrial biogenesis and respiratory capacity. In addition, the selenoproteins H, N, W, and O and deiodinases exhibit varying effects on mitochondrial and/or skeletal muscle function. Selenoprotein H enhances mitochondrial biogenesis whereas selenoproteins N and W appear to influence muscle calcium homeostasis which impacts mitochondrial function. Moreover, selenoprotein O's intramitochondrial residence facilitates Se's redox function. Deiodinases regulate thyroid hormone activation which impacts muscle cell regeneration, metabolism, and reactive oxygen species production. Although the precise relationships between dietary Se and skeletal muscle mitochondria remain unclear, previous research constitutes a firm foundation that portends promising new discoveries by future investigations.

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
Nutritional pancreatic atrophy (NPA) is a classical Se/vitamin E deficiency disease of chicks. To reveal molecular mechanisms of its pathogenesis, we fed day-old chicks a practical, low-Se diet (14 μg Se/kg), and replicated the typical symptoms of NPA including vesiculated mitochondria, cytoplasmic vacuoles, and hyaline bodies in acinar cells of chicks as early as day 18. Target pathway analyses illustrated a > 90% depletion (P < 0.05) of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) protein and up-regulated apoptotic signaling (cytochrome C/caspase 9/caspase 3) in the pancreas and(or) acinar cells of Se deficient chicks compared with Se-adequate chicks. Subsequently, we overexpressed and suppressed GPX4 expression in the pancreatic acinar cells and observed an inverse (P < 0.05) relationship between the GPX4 production and apoptotic signaling and cell death. Applying pull down and mass spectrometry, we unveiled that GPX4 bound prothymosin alpha (ProTalpha) to inhibit formation of apoptosome in the pancreatic acinar cells. Destroying this novel protein-protein interaction by silencing either gene expression accelerated H2O2-induced apoptosis in the cells. In the end, we applied GPX4 shRNA to silence GPX4 expression in chick embryo and confirmed the physiological relevance of the GPX4 role and mechanism shown ex vivo and in the acinar cells. Altogether, our results indicated that GPX4 depletion in Se-deficient chicks acted as a major contributor to their development of NPA due to the lost binding of GPX4 to ProTalpha and its subsequent inhibition on the cytochrome c/caspase 9/caspase 3 cascade in the acinar cells. Our findings not only provide a novel molecular mechanism for explaining pathogenesis of NPA but also reveal a completely new cellular pathway in regulating apoptosis by selenoproteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Supernutrition of selenium (Se) in an effort to produce Se-enriched meat may inadvertently cause lipid accumulation. Se-enriched Cardamine violifolia (SeCv) contains >80% of Se in organic forms. OBJECTIVES This study was to determine whether feeding chickens a high dose of SeCv could produce Se-biofortified muscle without altering their lipid metabolism. METHODS Day-old male broilers were allocated to 4 groups (6 cages/group and 6 chicks/cage) and were fed either a corn-soy base diet (BD, 0.13-0.15 mg Se/kg), the BD plus 0.5 mg Se/kg as sodium selenite (SeNa) or as SeCv, or the BD plus a low-Se Cardamine violifolia (Cv, 0.20-0.21mg Se/kg). At week 6, concentrations of Se and lipid and expression of selenoprotein and lipid metabolism-related genes were determined in the pectoral muscle and liver. RESULTS The 4 diets showed no effects on growth performance of broilers. Compared with the other 3 diets, SeCv elevated (P < 0.05) Se concentrations in the pectoral muscle and liver by 14.4-127% and decreased (P < 0.05) total cholesterol concentrations by 12.5-46.7% and/or triglyceride concentrations by 28.8-31.1% in the pectoral muscle and/or liver, respectively. Meanwhile, SeCv enhanced (P < 0.05) muscular α-linolenic acid (80.0%) and hepatic arachidonic acid (58.3%) concentrations compared with SeNa and BD, respectively. SeCv downregulated (P < 0.05) the cholesterol and triglyceride synthesis-related proteins (sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2 and diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2) and upregulated (P < 0.05) hydrolysis and β-oxidation of fatty acid-related proteins (lipoprotein lipase, fatty acid binding protein 1, and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A), as well as selenoprotein P1 and thioredoxin reductase activity in the pectoral muscle and/or liver compared with SeNa. CONCLUSIONS Compared with SeNa, SeCv effectively raised Se and reduced lipids in the liver and muscle of broilers. The effect was mediated through the regulation of the cholesterol and triglyceride biosynthesis and utilization-related genes.

Changes in lipids metabolism indices as a result of different form of selenium supplementation in chickens. Sci Rep 2022; 12:13817.

Abstract
Selenium is an essential element that is important for many metabolic processes. Feed components used in chicken nutrition, especially cereals, may be deficient in selenium, hence selenium supplementation is necessary. Taking into account the progress in breeding, and thus the higher demand of birds for this element, it seems obvious to investigate an increased selenium dose in the diet of chickens. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of feed enriched with different forms of selenium at an increased dose of 0.5 mg/kg feed on the profile and metabolism of fatty acids in the breast muscle and liver of chickens. The study was conducted on 300 Ross 308 chickens reared for 42 days under standard conditions. The control group received feed supplemented with sodium selenite at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg feed. The research groups received different forms of selenium (sodium selenate, selenised yeast, nano-selenium) at an increased dose of 0.5 mg/kg feed. The study showed that the administration of different forms of selenium in the feed affected its concentration in the breast muscle and liver (p ≤ 0.01). Nano-selenium was found to have a high bioavailability, but also a lower risk of toxicity compared to other forms of selenium. Using different forms of selenium (p ≤ 0.01) at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg feed can significantly modify the fatty acid profile, lipid and enzymatic indices of fatty acid metabolism in breast muscle and liver.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element found in the body. Se deficiency and M1/M2 imbalance are closely related to inflammation. Heat stress can decrease immune function and cause inflammation. In order to investigate whether Se deficiency can aggravate pneumonia caused by heat stress and the role of M1/M2 imbalance in the occurrence of pneumonia, 100 AA broilers were divided into two groups and fed the conventional diet (0.2 mg/kg Se) and the Se-deficient diet (0.03 mg/kg Se). After 40 days of feeding, the normal feeding group was randomly divided into a control group and a heat stress group. At the same time, the Se-deficient diet feeding group was randomly divided into a low Se group and a low Se heat stress group, with 25 chickens in each group. The model was established by exposure at 40℃. Six hours later, broilers were euthanized, and their lung tissues were collected. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, immunofluorescence, quantitative real-time PCR, and western blotting were used to detect lung histopathological changes and the expression of M1/M2 markers, nuclear receptor-κB (NF-κB) pathway genes, and heat shock proteins. Meanwhile, the activity and content of oxidative stress-related indices were also detected. We found that the expression of interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, interleukin-12, and tumor necrosis factor-α was upregulated and the expression of interleukin-2, interleukin-10, and interferon-γ was downregulated. Immunofluorescence showed that the expression of CD16 was increased, the expression of CD163 was weakened, and the M1/M2 imbalance was present. In addition, the NF-κB pathway was activated by the increased expressions of heat shock proteins and oxidative stress. There was an increase in malondialdehyde, nitric oxide, and inducible nitric oxide synthase content, while the activity of total antioxidant capacity, glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase decreased, and the expression of NF-κB and cyclooxygenase-2 increased. These results suggest that low Se induces M1/M2 imbalance through oxidative stress activation of the NF-κB pathway and aggravates lung tissue inflammation caused by heat stress. This study offers a theoretical basis for exploring the pathogenesis of various kinds of inflammation induced by Se deficiency from the perspective of M1/M2 and provides a reference for the prevention of such diseases.

Abstract
Heat stress (HS) induces deleterious effects on the performance of laying hens and causes economic losses for poultry industry. This study was carried out to investigate the organic effect of selenium-enriched yeast (SY) on relieving the performance, immunity and physiological deterioration induced by heat stress in laying hens. A total of 324, 28-week-old, Hy-Line Brown commercial chicken layers were randomly distributed into 4 treatments according to a 2 × 2 factorial design, with 9 hens × 9 replicates per treatment (n = 81). From 30 to 34 weeks of age, layers were exposed to 2 temperature treatments (the HS treatment groups): a thermoneutral temperature at 24°C and a heat stress at 35°C. Layers were further assigned into the 2 subgroups according to dietary supplementation with organic selenium-enriched yeast (the SY treatment groups) at either 0 or 0.4 mg/kg diet. Results indicated that all the aspects of the layer performance during the experimental period were impaired by exposure to HS, while SY supplementation improved the layer performance in both the HS and non-HS layers. Intestinal villi disruptions and liver necrotic hepatocytes were observed in the layers exposed to HS, while villi integrity and hepatocytic normality were enhanced by SY treatment. A significant (P < 0.05) decrease in the total leukocyte count, sheep red blood cell (SRBC) antibody titer, and T- and B-lymphocyte proliferation along with an increase in the heterophils/lymphocytes (H/L) ratio were observed in the HS layers compared to non-HS layers. On the contrary, SY treatment significantly (P < 0.05) improved the immune function traits in both the HS layers and non-HS layers. Furthermore, the SY treatment plays an important role in mitigating the oxidative stress and inflammation induced by HS, displaying lower levels of plasma corticosterone, lipid peroxidation, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α in HS layers supplemented with SY compared to HS layers without SY supplementation. These results conclude that addition of SY to the diet of laying hens could be applied as a potential nutritional approach to relieve the deterioration effects of heat stress on the immunity, physiological status, and productive performance of laying hens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional muscle dystrophy is associated with selenium (Se) deficiency; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to understand the crosstalk among redox status, energy metabolism, and inflammation in nutritional muscle dystrophy induced by dietary Se deficiency. METHODS Eighteen castrated male pigs (Yorkshire, 45 d old) were fed Se-deficient (Se-D; 0.007 mg Se/kg) or Se-adequate (Se-A; in the form of selenomethionine, 0.3 mg Se/kg) diets for 16 wk. The muscle Se concentrations; antioxidant capacity; and gene expression, transcriptome, global proteome, metabolome, and lipidome profiles were analyzed. The transcriptome, metabolome, and proteome profiles were analyzed with biostatistics, bioinformatics, and pathway enrichment analysis; other data were analyzed with Student's 2-sided t tests. RESULTS The muscle Se content in the Se-D group was 96% lower than that in the Se-A group (P < 0.05). The activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and thioredoxin reductase (TXNRD) in the Se-D group was 42%-69% lower than that in the Se-A group (P < 0.05). The mRNA levels of 10 selenoprotein genes were 25%-84% lower than those in the Se-A group (P < 0.05). Multi-omics analyses indicated that the levels of 1378 transcripts, 83 proteins, 22 metabolites, and 55 lipid molecules were significantly altered in response to Se deficiency. Se deficiency-induced redox imbalance led to muscle central carbon and lipid metabolism reprogramming, which enhanced the glycolysis pathway and decreased phospholipid synthesis. Inflammation and apoptosis were observed in response to Se deficiency-induced muscle oxidative stress, which may have been associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, suppressed focal adhesion and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling, and activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS These results contributed to understanding the crosstalk among redox, energy metabolism, and inflammation in Se deficiency-induced muscle dystrophy in pigs, and may provide intervention targets for muscle disease treatment.

Abstract
Comprehensive studies have been conducted to compare the effect of organic and inorganic selenium previously, but there is still limited knowledge about the difference between organic selenium (Se) from varied sources despite the widely use of organic Se in both animal and human being nutrient additives. In the present study, we systemically compared the effect of two different types of organic Se including selenium yeast (SeY) and selenium methionine (Sel-Met) on cell viability, selenoprotein transcriptome, and antioxidant status in porcine mammary epithelial cells (PMECs) and the results indicated that appropriate addition of SeY and Sel-Met both significantly promoted cell viability and up-regulated the mRNA expression of most selenopreoteins including DIOs, GPXs, and TrxRs family et al. (P < 0.05). Besides, two different sources of Se supplementation both greatly improved redox status with higher levels of T-AOC, SOD, and CAT (P < 0.05), while less content of MDA (P < 0.05), and reduced protein expression of cleaved-caspase-3 (P < 0.05) to mitigate cell apoptosis. Furthermore, the key proteins related to p38/JNK pathway including p38, p-p38, JNK, and p-JNK were apparently reduced in the groups with both of SeY and Sel-Met (P < 0.05). Interestingly we found that the changes induced by SeY supplementation in cell viability, selenoprotein transcriptome, antioxidative capacity, and anti-apoptosis were comprehensively greater compared with same levels addition of Sel-Met in PEMCs (P < 0.05). In conclusion, both SeY and Sel-Met promoted cell viability and attenuated cell apoptosis by regulating the selenoprotein expression and antioxidative capacity via p38/JNK signaling pathway in PMEC, but SeY has more efficient benefits than that of Sel-Met.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) plays a crucial role in protecting biological materials from oxidative damage through the action of the selenoprotein glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and the effectiveness of this protection is often dependent upon Se supply. Recent evidence has indicated that GSH-Px mRNA expression can be upregulated in response to potential oxidative damage risk, and that this upregulation is independent of Se supply. The current study aimed to determine the effect of Se supplementation, stocking rate and tissue fatty acid profile on GSH-Px activity in breast and thigh tissue of commercial broilers. A total of 168 Ross 308 broiler chicks were enrolled onto the study. Prior to enrolment, birds were brooded as a single group and received a starter diet containing no additional Se. The study was a 2 × 2 factorial design comprising of two levels of dietary Se (high Se, 0.5 mg/kg total Se, low Se background Se only), and two stocking rates (high, 30 kg/m2, and low, 15 kg/m2). At 15 days of age, birds were blocked by live weight and randomly allocated to one of the four treatments, with six pen replicates per treatment. At 42 days of age, one bird was randomly selected from each pen replicate, euthanased and breast and thigh tissue harvested. GSH-Px activity, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and fatty acid (FA) content of these tissues were determined. There was no effect (P > 0.05) of stocking rate on GSH-Px activity or TBARS. GSH-Px activity did not differ between tissue types but was greater in high Se birds (P < 0.001) compared to low Se. TBARS concentrations were greater in thigh tissue (P < 0.001), and these thigh concentrations were greater in high Se birds (P < 0.05). There were marked differences between breast and thigh tissue in most FAs (P < 0.001), with breast generally containing greater proportions of polyunsaturated FA, so that breast tissue had a higher (P < 0.001) peroxidisability index (PI) than thigh. A positive correlation between GSH-Px activity and PI in the thigh tissue of high Se birds (Pearson Correlation 0.668; P = 0.025) may indicate that increasing susceptibility to peroxidisation in lipid-rich tissues may also upregulate GSH-Px activity in Se-replete birds. This study suggests that ensuring adequate dietary selenium could be a useful tool to mitigate adverse effects on meat quality caused by oxidation, particularly in lipid-rich meat.

Abstract
A Selenium (Se) is an element belonging to the nonmetallic group. It was first discovered in 1817 by J.J. Berzelius. Until the 1950s, it was considered to be toxic to animals. However, with increasing research conducted on laboratory animals, it is now clear that Se is necessary for the proper functioning of both plants and animals. Recent studies indicate that Se is necessary for the proper functioning of metabolic pathways in animals. It was evidenced that Se is a component of about 100 proteins involved in the immune system, antioxidant homeostasis, or release of an inflammatory mediator. Therefore, it is of key interest to find the appropriate dosage for the supplementation of Se in the diet of farm animals and thereby eliminate physiological disorders in the body associated with Se imbalance. In this study, we present a literature review on the importance and appropriate dosage of Se in the diet of poultry concerning their health status, production results, and the quality of animal-origin products.

Effect of organic and inorganic dietary selenium supplementation on gene expression in oviduct tissues and Selenoproteins gene expression in Lohman Brown-classic laying hens. BMC Vet Res 2021; 17:281.

Abstract
Background The oviduct of a hen provides a conducive environment for egg formation, which needs a large amount of mineral elements from the blood via trans-epithelial permeability. Eggshell is the calcified layer on the outside of an egg that provides protection and is critical for egg quality. However, little is known about the genes or proteins involved in eggshell formation, and their relationship to dietary microminerals. We hypothesized that dietary selenium supplementation in chickens will influence genes involved in eggshell biomineralization, and improve laying hen antioxidant capacity. The objective of this research was to investigate how organic and inorganic dietary selenium supplementation affected mRNA expression of shell gland genes involved in eggshell biomineralization, and selenoproteins gene expression in Lohman Brown-Classic laying hens. Results Shell gland (Uterus) and liver tissue samples were collected from hens during the active growth phase of calcification (15–20 h post-ovulation) for RT-PCR analysis. In the oviduct (shell gland and magnum) and liver of laying hens, the relative expression of functional eggshell and hepatic selenoproteins genes was investigated. Results of qPCR confirmed the higher (p < 0.05) mRNA expression of OC-17 and OC-116 in shell gland of organic Se hen compared to inorganic and basal diet treatments. Similarly, dietary Se treatments affected the mRNA expression of OCX-32 and OCX-36 in the shell gland of laying hens. In the magnum, mRNA expression of OC-17 was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in hens fed-bacterial organic, while OC-116 mRNA expression was down-regulated in dietary Se supplemented groups compared to non-Se supplemented hens. Moreover, when compared to sodium selenite, only ADS18 bacterial Se showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher mRNA levels in GPX1, GPX4, DIO1, DIO2 and SELW1, while Se-yeast showed significantly (p < 0.05) higher mRNA levels in TXNRD1 than the non-Se group. Conclusions Dietary Se supplementation especially that from a bacterial organic source, improved shell gland and hepatic selenoproteins gene expression in laying hens, indicating that it could be used as a viable alternative source of Se in laying hens. The findings could suggest that organic Se upregulation of shell gland genes and hepatic selenoproteins in laying hens is efficient.

Abstract
Liver necroptosis of chicks is induced by selenium (Se)/vitamin E (VE) deficiencies and may be associated with oxidative cell damage. To reveal the underlying mechanisms of liver necrosis, a pool of the corn-soy basal diet (10 μg Se/kg; no VE added), a basal diet plus all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate (50 mg/kg), Se (sodium selenite at 0.3 mg/kg), or both of these nutrients were provided to day-old broiler chicks (n = 40/group) for 6 weeks. High incidences of liver necrosis (30%) of chicks were induced by -SE-VE, starting at day 16. The Se concentration in liver and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity were decreased (P < 0.05) by dietary Se deficiency. Meanwhile, Se deficiency elevated malondialdehyde content and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the liver at weeks 2 and 4. Chicks fed with the two Se-deficient diets showed lower (P < 0.05) hepatic mRNA expression of Gpx1, Gpx3, Gpx4, Selenof, Selenoh, Selenok, Selenom, Selenon, Selenoo, Selenop, Selenot, Selenou, Selenow, and Dio1 than those fed with the two Se-supplemented diets. Dietary Se deficiency had elevated (P < 0.05) the expression of SELENOP, but decreased the downregulation (P < 0.05) of GPX1, GPX4, SELENON, and SELENOW in the liver of chicks at two time points. Meanwhile, dietary Se deficiency upregulated (P < 0.05) the abundance of hepatic proteins of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, phospho-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, phospho-c-Jun N-terminal kinase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, phospho-mitogen-activated protein kinase, receptor-interacting serine-threonine kinase 1 (RIPK1), receptor-interacting serine-threonine kinase 3 (RIPK3), and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) at two time points. In conclusion, our data confirmed the differential regulation of dietary Se deficiency on several key selenoproteins, the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL, and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway in chicks and identified new molecular clues for understanding the etiology of nutritional liver necrosis.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of selenomethionine (Se-Met) on the cell viability, selenoprotein expression, and antioxidant function of porcine mammary epithelial cells (pMECs) to reveal the underlying molecular mechanism of Se-Met on the lactation performance and antioxidant capacity of sows in vitro. The pMECs were used as an in vitro model and were treated with various concentrations of Se-Met (0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 μM). Cells were analyzed for cell viability, selenoprotein transcriptome, selenoprotein expression, and antioxidant enzyme activities. The results showed that, with increasing Se-Met concentrations, cell viability first increased and then decreased at 24, 48, or 72 h posttreatment with maximum values at 0.5-μM Se-Met. As the Se-Met concentrations increased, the mRNA expression of 17 selenoproteins first upregulated and then downregulated, with maximum values at 0.5-μM Se-Met. The 17 selenoproteins included SEPHS2, SELENOP, GPX1, GPX2, GPX3, GPX6, TXNRD1, SELENOK, SELENOW, DIO1, DIO2, DIO3, SELENOF, SELENOS, SELENOH, SELENOI, and SELENOT. Additionally, the protein expression levels of SEPHS2, SELENOP, GPX1, and TXNRD1 and the activities of glutathione peroxidase and thioredoxin were highest at 0.5-μM Se-Met. In conclusion, 0.5-μM Se-Met promotes cell viability partially by improving selenoprotein expression and antioxidant function in pMECs, which provides evidence for the potential ability of Se-Met to improve mammary gland health in sows.

J Nutr 2021; 151:1791-1801. [PMID: 33982120 DOI: 10.1093/jn/nxab082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2020] [Revised: 12/17/2020] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) status is closely related to skeletal muscle physiological status. However, its influence on skeletal muscle growth has not been well studied. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to analyze the impacts of overall Se status (deficient, adequate, and high) on skeletal muscle growth using a growing zebrafish model. METHODS Zebrafish (1.5-mo-old) were fed graded levels of Se (deficient: 0.10 mg Se/kg; marginally deficient: 0.22 mg Se/kg; adequate: 0.34 mg Se/kg; high: 0.44, 0.57, and 0.69 mg Se/kg) as Se-enriched yeast for 30 d. Zebrafish growth, and Se accumulation, selenoenzyme activity, selenotranscriptome profiles, and oxidative status in the whole body, and selenotranscriptome profiles, histological characteristics, biochemicals, and gene and protein expression profiles related to muscle growth in the skeletal muscle were analyzed by model fitting and/or 1-factor ANOVA. RESULTS Se status biomarkers within the whole body and skeletal muscle indicated that 0.34 mg Se/kg was adequate for growing zebrafish. For biomarkers related to skeletal muscle growth, compared with 0.34 mg Se/kg, 0.10 mg Se/kg decreased the white muscle cross-sectional area (WMCSA) and the mean diameter of white muscle fibers (MDWMF) by 14.4%-15.1%, inhibited protein kinase B-target of rapamycin complex 1 signaling by 63.7%-68.5%, and stimulated the autophagy-lysosome pathway by 1.07 times and the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) by 96.0% (P < 0.05), whereas 0.22 mg Se/kg only decreased the WMCSA by 7.8% (P < 0.05); furthermore, 0.44 mg Se/kg had no clear effects on skeletal muscle biomarkers, whereas 0.57-0.69 mg Se/kg decreased the WMCSA and MDWMF by 6.3%-25.9% and 5.1%-21.3%, respectively, and stimulated the UPP by 2.23 times (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A level of 0.34 mg Se/kg is adequate for the growth of zebrafish skeletal muscle, whereas ≤0.10 and ≥0.57 mg Se/kg are too low or too high, respectively, for maintaining efficient protein accretion and normal hypertrophic growth.

Selenium mitigated aflatoxin B1-induced cardiotoxicity with potential regulation of 4 selenoproteins and ferroptosis signaling in chicks. Food Chem Toxicol 2021; 154:112320. [PMID: 34116104 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2021.112320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Revised: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to explore the underlying mechanism of selenium (Se)-mediated detoxification of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced cardiotoxicity in chicks. A Se-deficient, corn-soybean meal-basal diet (36 μg Se/kg, BD) and three test diets (BD+1.0 mg AFB1/kg, 0.3 mg Se/kg, or 1.0 mg AFB1/kg+0.3 mg Se/kg) were used in a 3-wk 2 × 2 factorial design trial (n = 30 chicks/group). Dietary AFB1 led to induced (P < 0.05) serum creatine kinase and creatine kinase MB isoenzyme activities and heart histopathologic lesions. However, Se deficiency aggravated most of these alterations induced by AFB1. Moreover, mRNA levels of two ferroptosis activators (solute carrier family 11 Member 2 and transferrin) were upregulated (P < 0.05) in the AFB1-treated groups. Additionally, Se deficiency reduced (P < 0.05) glutathione peroxidase (GPX) 3 and thioredoxin reductase 3 mRNA and GPX activity but increased (P < 0.05) selenoprotein M and selenophosphate synthetase 2 mRNA in the heart in AFB1-administered groups. The in vitro study showed that Se alleviated (P < 0.05) AFB1-reduced cell viability and induced (P < 0.05) ROS and ferroptosis in H9C2 cardiac cells. It also downregulated (P < 0.05) two ferroptosis activators (long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase 4 and solute carrier family 11 Member 2) in the AFB1-treated groups in the H9C2 cells. In conclusion, this study illustrated that Se alleviates AFB1-induced cardiotoxicity and cardiomyocyte damage potentially related to the regulation of redox status, 4 selenoproteins, and ferroptosis-related signaling.

Dietary selenium sources differentially regulate selenium concentration, mRNA and protein expression of representative selenoproteins in various tissues of yellow catfish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco. Br J Nutr 2021; 127:490-502.

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
As a nutritionally essential trace element, selenium (Se) is crucial for fish growth. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Fish somatic growth relies on the white muscle growth. This study aimed to explore the effects and underlying mechanisms of Se on fish white muscle growth using a juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) model. Fish were fed a basal diet unsupplemented or supplemented with selenium yeast at nutritional dietary Se levels (2 and 4 mg/kg Se, respectively) for 30 days. Results showed that dietary Se supplementation significantly enhanced trout somatic growth. Histological and molecular analysis of trout white muscle tissues at the vent level showed that dietary Se supplementation elevated the total cross-sectional area of white muscle, mean diameter of white muscle fibers, protein content, nuclei number, and DNA content of individual muscle fiber, and suppressed the activities of calpain system and ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Overall, this study demonstrated that dietary Se within the nutritional range inhibits calpain- and ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation and promotes the fusion of myoblasts into the existed muscle fibers to promote the hypertrophic growth of white muscle, thereby accelerating the somatic growth of rainbow trout. Our results provide a mechanistic insight into the regulatory role of Se in fish growth.

Abstract
Background Selenium (Se) has been recognized as an essential micronutrient for nearly all forms of life. In recent decades, broiler responses to dietary Se supplemental levels and sources have received considerable attention. On environmental grounds, organic trace mineral utilization in practical broiler feeds has been defended due to its higher bioavailability. In such feeds, trace minerals are provided simultaneously in the same supplement as inorganic salts or organic chelates, a fact commonly ignored in assays conducted to validate organic trace mineral sources. The current assay aimed to investigate growth and biochemical responses, as well as Se retention of growing chicks fed diets supplemented with organic and inorganic Se levels and where the trace minerals (zinc, copper, manganese, and iron) were provided as organic chelates or inorganic salts according to Se source assessed. In so doing, a 2 × 5 factorial arrangement was used to investigate the effects of sodium selenite (SS) and selenium-yeast (SY) supplemented in feeds to provide the levels of 0, 0.08, 0.16, 0.24, and 0.32 mg Se/kg. Results Chicks fed selenium-yeast diets had body weight (BW), and average daily gain (ADG) maximized at 0.133 and 0.130 mg Se/kg, respectively. Both Se sources linearly increased (P < 0.05) the glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in chick blood but higher values were observed in sodium selenite fed chicks (P < 0.05). Both Se sources influenced thyroid hormone serum concentrations (P < 0.05). Chicks fed SY exhibited greater retention of Se in the feathers (P < 0.05). Relative bioavailability of selenium yeast compared with SS for the Se content in carcass, feathers, total and Se retention were, 126, 116, 125 and 125%, respectively. SY supplementation resulted in lower liver Se concentration as Se supplementation increased (P < 0.05). Conclusions Based on performance traits, the supplemental level of organic Se as SY in organic trace minerals supplement to support the maximal growth of broiler chicks is 0.133 mg Se/kg.

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.

Individual and Combined Effects of Aflatoxin B1 and Sterigmatocystin on Lipid Peroxidation and Glutathione Redox System of Common Carp Liver. Toxins (Basel) 2021; 13:toxins13020109. [PMID: 33540648 PMCID: PMC7912975 DOI: 10.3390/toxins13020109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2020] [Revised: 01/20/2021] [Accepted: 01/29/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the short-term effects of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1 100 µg/kg feed) and sterigmatocystin (STC 1000 μg/kg feed) exposure individually and in combination (100 μg AFB1 + 1000 μg STC/kg feed) on the parameters of lipid peroxidation and glutathione redox system both in biochemical and gene expression levels in one-year-old common carp. Lipid peroxidation parameters were slightly affected, as significant differences were observed only in conjugated diene and triene concentrations. Reduced glutathione content decreased more markedly by STC than AFB1 or AFB1+STC, but glutathione peroxidase activity did not change. Expression of gpx4a, gpx4b, gss, and gsr genes was down-regulated due to STC compared to AFB1 or AFB1+STC, while an induction was found as effect of AFB1+STC in the case of gpx4a, but down-regulation for gpx4b as compared to AFB1. Expression of the glutathione biosynthesis regulatory gene, gss, was higher, but glutathione recycling enzyme encoding gene, gsr, was lower as an effect of AFB1+STC compared to AFB1. These results are supported by the changes in the expression of transcription factors encoding genes, nrf2, and keap1. The results revealed that individual effects of AFB1 and STC on different parameters are synergistic or antagonistic in multi-toxin treatment.

Protective Effect of Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate in Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Damage in Chicken Lymphocytes. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:7386239. [PMID: 33488931 PMCID: PMC7790551 DOI: 10.1155/2020/7386239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Revised: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 12/17/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is one of the fundamental compounds in green tea. The present study was to evaluate the protective effect of EGCG in oxidative damage and apoptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in chicken lymphocytes. Results showed that preincubation of lymphocytes with EGCG significantly decreased H2O2-reduced cell viability and apoptotic cells with DNA damage, restored the H2O2-dependent reduction in total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione disulfide (GSSG), and suppressed the increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), nitric oxide (NO), nitric oxide synthesis (NOS), malondialdehyde (MDA), lipid peroxide (LPO), and protein carbonyl (Carbonyl). In addition, preincubation of the cells with EGCG increased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reduced calcium ion ([Ca2+]i) load. The protective effect of EGCG in oxidative damage in lymphocytes was accompanied by mRNA expression of SOD, Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), Catalase (CAT), GSH-PX, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1). As EGCG had been removed before lymphocytes were challenged with H2O2, the activation of genes such as Nrf2 and Trx-1 by preincubation with EGCG could be the main reason for EGCG to protect the cells from oxidative damage by H2O2. Since oxidative stress is an important mechanism of biological damage and is regarded as the reasons of several pathologies, the present findings may be helpful for the use of tea products to prevent oxidative stress and maintain healthy in both humans and animals.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to use isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomic technology to systematically analyze the hepatotoxic mechanism of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and its prevention by Se in broilers. Four groups of day-old broilers were allocated into a 2 × 2 factorial design trial that fed a Se-deficient based diet (BD) or the BD + 1.0 mg AFB1/kg, 0.3 mg Se/kg, or 1.0 mg AFB1/kg plus 0.3 mg Se/kg for 3 wk. Dietary AFB1 increased serum ALT and decreased total protein and albumin concentrations, and induced hepatic histopathological lesions in Se adequate groups. Notably, Se deficiency exacerbated these AFB1-induced changes. Furthermore, Se deficiency reduced hepatic glutathione peroxidase but increased thioredoxin reductase and glutathione S-transferase activities and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine concentration in AFB1 administrated groups. Moreover, AFB1 dysregulated 261 co-differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in both Se adequate and deficiency diets, and Se deficiency dysregulated 64 DEPs in AFB1 administrated diets. These DEPs are mainly related to phase I and II metabolizing enzymes, heat shock proteins, DNA repair, fatty acid metabolism and apoptosis. The in vitro study has verified that aldo-keto reductase family1, member10 plays an important role in AFB1-induced hepatotoxicity and Se-mediated detoxification of AFB1 in a chicken leghorn male hepatoma cells. Conclusively, this study has analyzed the hepatic proteome response to dietary AFB1 and Se, and thus shed new light on the mechanisms of hepatotoxicity of AFB1 and its detoxification by Se in broilers.

Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the effect of Se sources and concentrations on performance, thyroid activity, antioxidant defense, and functional egg quality of Japanese quail. One hundred and twenty, 8-week-old birds were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 dietary treatments in 3 replicates (10 birds/replicate). The treatments contained inorganic sodium selenite (SS) at 0.2 mg/kg diet (SS1 = control) or 0.4 mg/kg diet (SS2) or selenomethionine (SM) at 0.2 mg/kg diet (SM1) or 0.4 mg/kg diet (SM2). Egg production (%) and feed intake were daily recorded, and feed conversion ratio (FCR) was calculated. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for glucose, thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzymes. Egg quality was determined in terms of Se content and concentrations of triglycerides, LDL, HDL, and cholesterol. Dietary supplementation of SM2 increased (P < 0.05) egg production (%) and egg mass and decreased FCR compared to the other groups, which showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) in between. It is the first study reporting that the eggs from the quail fed SM2 diet had lower concentrations (P < 0.05) of triglycerides, LDL, and cholesterol than those fed SS. Feeding SM increased (P < 0.05) blood glucose, T4, and T3 levels. Moreover, feeding SM increased the activity of GPX and SOD with a higher significance (P < 0.05) for SM2 than SM1. In conclusion, no adverse effects from supplementation of SM up to 0.4 mg/kg were observed and could improve their performance, antioxidant defense, thyroid activity, and functional egg quality.

Abstract
Se-methylselenocysteine (MeSeCys) is a natural organic selenium (Se) supplement. However, its effects on animal nutrition are poorly understood. This study compared the effects of sodium selenite (SeNa), MeSeCys, and selenomethionine (SeMet) on immune function, tissue Se concentration, meat quality, and selenoprotein gene expression in pigs. A total of 72 finishing pigs were divided into four groups, which received a basal diet (BD, 0.1 mg Se/kg) without Se supplementation or one supplemented with SeNa, MeSeCys, or SeMet at a concentration of 0.25 mg Se/kg. Organic Se supplementation significantly increased the immune globulin A (IgA), IgG, and IgM serum levels compared with BD and SeNa groups (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in growth performance among the four groups. SeMet was more efficient in increasing Se concentrations in the heart, muscle, and liver than MeSeCys and SeNa (P < 0.05), while no statistically significant differences were observed between MeSeCys and SeNa. Se supplementation significantly decreased the pressing muscle loss compared with the BD group (P < 0.05). Meat color and pH were not significantly affected. Se supplement effects on liver selenoprotein gene mRNA level enhancement were ranked as follows: MeSeCys > SeMet > SeNa (P < 0.05). In muscle tissues, only the SELENOW mRNA level was significantly increased by the MeSeCys and SeMet treatment, compared with the SeNa group. In conclusion, SeMet was more efficient in increasing Se concentrations than MeSeCys and SeNa in pigs, while MeSeCys was more efficient in enhancing selenoprotein gene expression than SeMet and SeNa.

PLoS One 2020; 15:e0232160. [PMID: 32379770 PMCID: PMC7205448 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0232160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2020] [Accepted: 04/08/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
There is interest in supplementing animals and humans with selenium (Se) above Se-adequate levels, but the only good biomarker for toxicity is tissue Se. We targeted liver because turkeys fed 5 μg Se/g have hepatic Se concentrations 6-fold above Se-adequate (0.4 μg Se/g) levels without effects on growth or health. Our objectives were (i) to identify transcript biomarkers for high Se status, which in turn would (ii) suggest proteins and pathways used by animals to adapt to high Se. Turkey poults were fed 0, 0.025, 0.4, 0.75 and 1.0 μg Se/g diet in experiment 1, and fed 0.4, 2.0 and 5.0 μg Se/g in experiment 2, as selenite, and the full liver transcriptome determined by RNA-Seq. The major effect of Se-deficiency was to down-regulate expression of a subset of selenoprotein transcripts, with little significant effect on general transcript expression. In response to high Se intake (2 and 5 μg Se/g) relative to Se-adequate turkeys, there were only a limited number of significant differentially expressed transcripts, all with only relatively small fold-changes. No transcript showed a consistent pattern of altered expression in response to high Se intakes across the 1, 2 and 5 μg Se/g treatments, and there were no associated metabolic pathways and biological functions that were significant and consistently found with high Se supplementation. Gene set enrichment analysis also found no gene sets that were consistently altered by high-Se and supernutritional-Se. A comparison of differentially expressed transcript sets with high Se transcript sets identified in mice provided high Se (~3 μg Se/g) also failed to identify common differentially expressed transcript sets between these two species. Collectively, this study indicates that turkeys do not alter gene expression in the liver as a homeostatic mechanism to adapt to high Se.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the intervention of selenium in the oxidative stress and apoptosis of pig livers, which were induced by a high-fat diet, and the effects of four endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident selenoproteins in the process. A 2 × 4 design trial was conducted that included two dietary fat levels (BD = basal diet and HFD = high-fat diet) and four dietary Se supplementation levels (0, 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mg/kg of the diet, in the form of sodium selenite (Na2SeO3)). Our results indicated that the HFD significantly increased the activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the serum, as well as the degree of steatosis, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), the apoptotic rate, and the level of mRNA caspase-3 in the liver compared to their BD counterparts (p < 0.05). Moreover, these parameters in the HFD groups were more significantly reduced (p < 0.05) for a Se concentration of 1.0 mg/kg than for the other concentrations. Further, for both the BD and HFD, the groups supplemented with 1.0 mg/kg Se showed the highest mRNA level of selenoprotein S. In conclusion, the consumption of an HFD can induce oxidative damage and apoptosis in the liver. This shows that the supplementation of Se at 1.0 mg/kg may be the optimum concentration against damage induced by HFD, and Sels may play a key role in this process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The metabolic function of selenoprotein V (SELENOV) remains unknown. OBJECTIVES Two experiments were conducted to determine effects of the Selenov knockout (KO) on selenium concentration and mRNA, protein, and/or activity of 4 major selenoproteins [glutathione peroxidase (GPX) 1, GPX4, thioredoxin reductase-1 (TXNRD1), and selenoprotein P (SELENOP)] in the serum, liver, testis, and/or white adipose tissue (WAT) of mice fed different dietary selenium and fat concentrations. METHODS In Experiment (Expt) 1, 40 KO and 40 wild-type (WT) mice (males, 8 wk old) were fed (n = 10/genotype) a casein-sucrose basal diet plus 0, 0.3, 1, or 3 mg Se/kg (as sodium selenite) for 32 wk . In Expt 2, 20 KO and 20 WT mice (males, 8 wk old) were fed (n = 10/genotype) a normal-fat diet (NF; 10% calories from fat) or a high-fat diet (HF; 60% calories from fat) for 19 wk. RESULTS In Expt 1, the KO caused consistent or substantial decreases (P < 0.05) of mRNA amounts of Gpx1, Txnrd1, and Selenop in the testis (≤52%), but selenium concentrations (19-29%) and GPX activities (≤ 50%) were decreased in the liver across different dietary selenium concentrations . Hepatic and testis GPX1 protein was elevated (≤31%) and decreased (≤45%) by the KO, respectively. In Expt 2, the genotype and dietary fat intake exerted interaction effects ( P < 0.05) on Gpx1 mRNA amounts in the WAT; Gpx1, Txnrd1, and Selenop mRNA amounts and TXNRD activities in the testis; and selenium concentrations in the serum and liver. However, these 2 treatments produced largely independent or additive effects (P < 0.05) on the GPX1 and SELENOP protein amounts in the liver and testis (up to ± 50% changes). CONCLUSIONS The KO-mediated changes in the tissue selenium concentrations and functional expression of 3 major selenoproteins implied potential for SELENOV in regulating body selenium metabolism in the mouse.

Effects of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) on lipid peroxidation and glutathione system were investigated in chicken liver. In a three-week feeding trial, different doses (<1.0 μg/kg (control diet), 17.0 µg (diet A1), 92.0 µg (diet A2), and 182.0 µg (diet A3) AFB1 kg/feed) were used. Markers of lipid peroxidation, conjugated dienes and trienes showed higher values in A3, while amounts of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were increased in the A1 group at day 21. Glutathione content was lower at day 14 in Group A2. Glutathione peroxidase 4 activity was increased at days 7 and 21 in the A3 group but reduced in the A2 and A3 groups at day 14. The GPX4 gene was downregulated at day 7 in the A2 group, but overregulated at days 14 and 21, and at day 14 in the A3 group. GSS was downregulated at day 14 in the A1 group but overregulated at day 21 in A1 and A2 groups. GSR was downregulated at days 7 and 21 in all treatment groups, but on day 14, induction was observed in the A3 group. The results indicated that AFB1 did not induce dose- or time-dependent effects on the glutathione redox system and its encoding genes at the dose range used, which means that oxidative stress is not the primary effect of AFB1 toxicity.

[PMID: 31835880 PMCID: PMC6940954 DOI: 10.3390/ani9121122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2019] [Revised: 12/08/2019] [Accepted: 12/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
To evaluate the effects of dietary Se deficiency and excess on the mRNA levels of selenoproteins in pig spleen tissues, 20 healthy uncastrated boars (Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire, 10 ± 0.72 kg) were randomly divided into four groups (5 pigs per group). The pigs were fed a Se deficient corn-soybean basal feed (Se content <0.03 mg/kg) or basal feed with added sodium selenite at 0.3, 1.0, or 3.0 mg Se/kg diet, respectively. The experiment lasted 16 weeks. The spleen tissue was collected to examine the mRNA expression levels of 24 selenoprotein genes at the end of the study. Compared with pigs in other groups, those fed with the 1.0 mg Se/kg diet had higher mRNA levels of glutathione peroxidase 1 (Gpx1), glutathione peroxidase 2 (Gpx2), deiodinase type II (Dio2), thioredoxin reductase 3 (Txnrd3), selenoprotein H (Selh), selenoprotein N, 1 (Sepn1), selenoprotein P1 (Sepp1), and selenoprotein V (Selv) in the spleen (p < 0.05). Dietary Se deficiency resulted in lower mRNA levels of Gpx1, Gpx2, glutathione peroxidase 3 (Gpx3), Dio2, thioredoxin reductase 2 (Txnrd2), Txnrd3, Selh, selenoprotein I (Seli), selenoprotein K (Selk), selenoprotein M (Selm), Sepn1, Sepp1, and Selv in the spleen than the other three groups. Dietary Se levels did not affect the mRNA levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), deiodinase type I (Dio1), deiodinase type III (Dio3), selenophosphate synthetase 2 (Sephs2), thioredoxin reductase 1 (Txnrd1), selenoprotein O (Selo), selenoprotein S (Sels), selenoprotein W (Selw), selenoprotein X (Selx), and selenoprotein 15 (Sel15) in the spleen (p > 0.05). Dietary Se levels can affect the transcription levels of 14 selenoprotein genes in the spleen of pigs.

Abstract
Selenoprotein K (SELENOK) is primarily observed in the endoplasmic reticulum, and serves to maintain the normal physiological functions of skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle development and regeneration are associated with significant changes in the expression of specific microRNAs (miRNAs). Downregulated SELENOK expression is observed in chicken muscles deficient of Se. However, the mechanisms of miRNA regulation of SELENOK expression remain elusive. Here, deep sequencing was used to detect the miRNA profiles of muscle in Se deficient (-Se group) and normal (C group) chickens. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was adopted to verify the relationship between SELENOK and gga-let-7f-3p. In addition, gga-let-7f-3p was either overexpressed or knocked-down in chicken myoblasts. Furthermore, the cells were treated with N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in order to probe the factors involved in oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and apoptosis, respectively. Relative to the C group, there were 132 differentially expressed miRNAs (including 57 upregulated and 75 downregulated) in the muscles of the -Se group. The dual-luciferase reporter assay showed that SELENOK was a primary target of gga-let-7f-3p. It was also observed that the overexpression or knock-down of gga-let-7f-3p significantly influenced the SELENOK expression. Moreover, NAC blocked mimics of ga-let-7f-3p, thus inducing oxidative stress, ERS and apoptosis. Simultaneously, gga-let-7f-3p inhibitors blocked the stimulant effects caused by H2O2 in chicken myoblasts. Furthermore, Se deficiency downregulated the SELENOK protein expression and induced oxidative stress, ERS and apoptosis in chicken muscles. In conclusion, the gga-let-7f-3p-SELENOK pathway played a pivotal role in Se deficiency mediated muscle injuries through the induction of oxidative stress and ERS, ultimately promoting apoptosis.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for humans and animals. Appropriate amount of Se in the body can prevent a variety of diseases. However, Se deficiency leads to pathological changes such as skeletal muscle necrosis and pancreatic atrophy in livestock and poultry. Se preparations are widely used in the prevention and treatment of Se-deficient disease, but there is no unified standard of medication, and the safe dose range of Se is narrow. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the pharmacokinetics of low-Se ducklings and to formulate drug administration schemes. In the present study, eighty 1-day-old healthy ducklings were randomly selected, and fed with low-Se diet to 30 days of age (blood Se content ≦ 0.03 μg/mL). After the low Se duckling models were duplicated, blood samples and tissues of livers, pancreases, and thigh muscles were collected at different time points to detect Se content following oral administration of 0.1% sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) at 0.8 mg/kg BW, and the pharmacokinetics parameters were automatically calculated by MCPKP program. The results showed that pharmacokinetics characteristics of Na2SeO3 in blood, livers, and pancreases of ducklings were consistent with the first-order absorption and two-compartment open models; in thigh muscles was consistent with the first-order absorption and one compartment with a lag time open model. The primary kinetic parameters of Na2SeO3 in blood: the half-life of absorption was 5.9026 h, the time of reaching maximum concentration was 23.03 h, and the half-life of elimination was 131.13 h. The absorption of Na2SeO3 in livers was the quickest, pancreases and thigh muscles were in order of becoming slower, and the elimination of Na2SeO3 in thigh muscles was the quickest, livers and pancreases were in order of becoming slower. The administration parameters of multi-dose were calculated according to the kinetic of single-dose: loading dose (D*) was 1.7046 mg/kg BW, maintenance dose (D0) was 0.8 mg/kg BW, and dosing interval (τ) was 120 h. The results of this study can supplement and improve the theoretical system of Se metabolic kinetics, and provide experimental basis for the prevention and treatment of Se deficiency disease by rational drug use.

Abstract
Selenium, through incorporation into selenoproteins, is one of the key elements of the antioxidant system. Over the past few years there has been increased interest in exploring those molecular mechanisms in chicken, responsible for the development of this protection system. In more detail, Cd/Pb poisoning and heat stress increase oxidation, mRNA levels of inflammatory proteins, and apoptotic proteins. Selenium seems to enhance the antioxidant status and alleviates these effects via upregulation of antioxidant proteins and other molecular effects. In this review, we analyze avian transcriptome key elements with particular emphasis on interactions with heavy metals and on relation to heat stress.

Abstract
Authors studied the effect of sterigmatocystin from infected corn (STC), purified sterigmatocystin (PSTC), and aflatoxin B1 from infected corn (AFB1) on lipid peroxidation and glutathione redox parameters, including the expression of their encoding genes in a sub-chronic (14 days) trial. A total of 144 three-week-old cockerels was divided into four experimental groups (n = 36 in each). Control feed was contaminated with STC or PSTC (1590 µg STC/kg or 1570.5 µg STC/kg feed), or with AFB1 (149.1 µg AFB1/kg feed). Six birds from each group were sampled at day 1, 2, 3, 7 and 14 of mycotoxin exposure. As parameters of lipid peroxidation, conjugated dienes (CD) and trienes (CT) were measured in the liver, while malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration was determined in blood plasma, red blood cell hemolysate and liver. Reduced glutathione (GSH) concentration and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity were determined in the same samples, and expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), glutathione synthetase (GSS) and glutathione reductase (GSR) genes was measured by RT-PCR in the liver. STC, PSTC or AFB1 caused a slight, but not significant, increase in CD and CT levels; however, in the case of MDA, no increase was found in the liver. Glutathione redox system was activated in the liver by AFB1, but less markedly by STC/PSTC. PSTC and AFB1 resulted in a higher expression of GPX4, while GSS expression was down-regulated by AFB1 on day 1, but up-regulated by STC on day 2 and by both mycotoxins on day 7. However, on day 14, GSS expression was down-regulated by PSTC. Expression of GSR was low on day 1 in AFB1 and PSTC groups, but later it was up-regulated by AFB1. The observed changes regarding gene expression strengthen the hypothesis that the mild oxidative stress, caused by the applied STC doses, activates the glutathione redox system of broiler chickens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selenium (Se) plays a protective role in aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)-induced splenic immunotoxicity in chicks. OBJECTIVE This study was designed to reveal the underlying mechanism of Se-mediated protection against AFB1-induced splenic injury in broilers. METHODS Four groups of 1-d-old Cobb male broilers (n = 5 cages/diet, 6 chicks/cage) were arranged in a 3-wk 2 × 2 factorial design trial whereby they were fed an Se-deficient, corn- and soy-based diet [base diet (BD), 36 μg Se/kg], BD plus 1.0 mg AFB1/kg, BD plus 0.3 mg Se/kg, or BD plus 1.0 mg AFB1/kg and 0.3 mg Se/kg (as 2-hydroxy-4-methylselenobutanoic acid). Serum and spleen were collected at week 3 to assay for cytokines, histology, redox status, selected inflammation- and apoptosis-related genes and proteins, and the selenogenome. RESULTS Dietary AFB1 induced growth retardation and spleen injury, decreasing (P < 0.05) body weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion efficiency, and serum interleukin-1β by 17.8-98.1% and increasing (P < 0.05) the spleen index and serum interleukin-6 by 37.6-113%. It also reduced the splenic lymphocyte number, the white pulp region, and histiocyte proliferation in Se-adequate groups. However, Se deficiency aggravated (P < 0.05) these AFB1-induced alterations by 16.2-103%. Moreover, Se deficiency decreased (P < 0.05) splenic glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity and glutathione-S transferase and glutathione concentrations by 35.6-89.4% in AFB1-exposed groups. Furthermore, Se deficiency upregulated (P < 0.05) the apoptotic (Caspase 3 and Caspase 9) and antimicrobial (β defensin 1 and 2) genes, but downregulated (P < 0.05) antiapoptotic (B-cell lymphoma 2) and inflammatory (E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase CBL-B) genes at the mRNA and/or protein level in AFB1 supplementation groups. Additionally, Se deficiency downregulated (P < 0.05) GPX3, thioredoxin reductase 1 (TXNRD 1), GPX4, and selenoprotein (SELENO) S, and upregulated (P < 0.05) SELENOT and SELENOU in spleen in AFB1 administered groups. CONCLUSIONS Dietary Se deficiency exacerbated AFB1-induced spleen injury in chicks, partially through the regulation of oxidative stress, inflammatory and apoptotic signaling, and 6 selenoproteins.

Abstract
The application of selenite to soil has increasingly been used to produce Se-enriched food. This study investigated the biofortification characteristics of Se in rice after application of selenite to soil at different growth stages. The results showed that the application of Se during booting stage resulted in the highest concentration of Se in brown rice due to the highest upward translocation of Se. More than 90% of Se in the brown rice was organic species, with selenomethionine predominated. The proportion of selenomethionine in the brown rice decreased with the delay in application time. The rice grown in the acidic soil had higher Se concentrations than in the neutral soil. With increasing soil Cd level, Se accumulation and the proportion of Se-methylselenocysteine in the brown rice were reduced. This study provides a theoretical basis for the production of Se-enriched rice in clean soil or slightly to moderately Cd-contaminated soil.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the influence of maternal selenium supplementation on the skeletal muscle development of the offspring. A total of 720 Ross 308 broiler breeders at 24-week-old were allocated into 3 treatments with 6 replicates of 40 hens each and fed with 0 mg/kg-(group Se/C), 0.5 mg/kg organic-(group Se/O), and 0.5 mg/kg inorganic-(group Se/I) selenium, respectively for 8 weeks. The male offspring from each nutritional treatment were divided and housed into 8 cages of 12 birds each and fed with a commercial diet supplemented with selenium from Na2SeO3 at 0.15 mg/kg. Results showed that Se/O group had the highest selenium deposition (P < 0.05) in the egg yolk and albumen. Furthermore, maternal selenium supplementation promoted breast muscle yield; increased serum insulin and IGF-I concentration; upregulated AKT, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), P70S6K, Myf5, MyoD, MyoG, and SelW mRNA levels; and improved the phosphorylation of AKT at Serine 473 residue, mTOR at Serine 2448 residue, and FOXO at Serine 256 residue in skeletal muscles of the offspring. In contrast, the hens' diet supplemented with selenium could result in reduction of uric acid level in serum and downregulation of Atrogin-1 and MuRF1 mRNA levels in the skeletal muscle of the offspring. Additionally, no significant effect on the skeletal muscle development post-hatch was observed between organic and inorganic selenium supplementation. In conclusion, maternal organic selenium supplementation improved selenium deposition in egg; however, no significant effect has been detected on the breast muscle development of the offspring of broiler breeder compared with inorganic selenium supplementation.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), an endogenous gasotransmitter, plays an important role in apoptosis. Exudative diathesis (ED) disease is associated with dietary selenium (Se) deficiency in broilers. The liver is one of the target organs of Se deficiency; however, little is known about the effect of H2S on apoptosis via mitochondrial pathways in the livers of broilers with ED disease. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the correlation between endogenous H2S and mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis in the livers of broilers with ED disease, as induced by Se deficiency. One hundred twenty healthy, 1-day-old broilers were randomly assigned to one of two groups (60 each) based on diet: Basal diet (control group, 0.2 mg/kg Se) or a low-Se diet (-Se group, 0.033 mg/kg Se). At day 20, 15 broilers of a similar weight were sacrificed from the control group, while the same number of broilers were euthanatized from the -Se group when displaying typical symptoms of ED between days 18 and 25. The livers were collected, and apoptosis was measured using a TUNEL assay. Additionally, H2S concentration, the expression of H2S synthases of cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST), as well as mitochondrial apoptosis-related genes of Bcl-2, Bax, Bak, Cyt-C, Caspase-9, Caspase-3, and p53, were examined in livers. The results indicated that Se deficiency could induce apoptosis in the livers of broilers. Swelling, fractures, and vacuolization were visible in the mitochondrial cristae in the livers of the -Se group. The expression of H2S synthase-related genes and H2S concentration was significantly enhanced (P < 0.05) in the livers of the -Se group compared to controls. Moreover, a low-Se diet downregulated (P < 0.05) the level of Bcl-2 and upregulated (P < 0.05) the levels of Bax, Bak, Cyt-C, Caspase-9, Caspase-3, and p53. These results suggest that an H2S increase in the livers of ED broilers, which was induced by Se deficiency, is related to apoptosis mediated by mitochondrial pathways.

Abstract
Glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1) is a selenium-dependent enzyme that reduces intracellular hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides. While past research explored regulations of gene expression and biochemical function of this selenoperoxidase, GPX1 has recently been implicated in the onset and development of chronic diseases. Clinical data have shown associations of human GPX1 gene variants with elevated risks of diabetes. Knockout and overexpression of Gpx1 in mice may induce types 1 and 2 diabetes-like phenotypes, respectively. This review assembles the latest advances in this new field of selenium biology, and attempts to postulate signal and molecular mechanisms mediating the role of GPX1 in glucose and lipid metabolism-related diseases. Potential therapies by harnessing the beneficial effects of this ubiquitous redox-modulating enzyme are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Co-occurrence of mycotoxin contamination of feeds is a frequent problem, therefore the purpose of this study was to evaluate the combined effect of T-2 toxin and deoxynivalenol (DON) on lipid peroxidation, parameters and regulation of the glutathione redox system in broiler chickens in a sub-chronic (7 day) study. The applied doses were: low mix: 0.23 mg T-2 toxin and 4.96 mg DON/kg feed; medium mix: 1.21 mg T-2 toxin and 12.38 mg DON/kg feed; and high mix: 2.42 T-2 toxin and 24.86 mg DON/kg feed. Liver samples were taken on days 0, 1, 2, 3, and 7 of the feeding trial. Lipid peroxidation decreased significantly as compared to the control on days 3 and 7 as effect of low and high doses, which can be related to the activation of the antioxidant system, which is supported by the elevated glutathione peroxidase activity and reduced glutathione concentration as compared to the control on day 3 in the medium and high dose groups. Gene expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) elevated on day 1 in a dose dependent manner, and showed continuous elevation in the highest dose group thereafter. The results suggested that common exposure of T-2 toxin and DON induced oxidative stress in the liver of broiler chickens, which activated the enzymatic antioxidant system, and consequently decreased lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
The study was carried out to investigate the effect of dietary selenium (Se) and vitamin E (VE) supplementation on mRNA level of heat shock proteins, selenoproteins, and antioxidant enzyme activities in the breast meat of broilers under summer heat stress conditions. A total of 200 male broilers (Ross 308) of 1 day age were randomly separated into 4 groups in a complete randomized design and were given a basal diet (Control, 0.08 mg Se/kg diet) or basal diet supplemented with VE (250 mg/kg VE), sodium selenite (0.2 mg/kg Se), or Se + VE (0.2 mg/kg Se + 250 mg/kg VE) to investigate the expression of key antioxidant and heat shock protein (HSP) genes under high temperature stress. Dietary Se, VE and Se + VE significantly enhanced the activities and mRNA levels of catalase as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD) but decreased the mRNA levels of HSP70 and HSP90. Se alone or combined with VE increased the concentration of selenoprotein P and selenoproteins mRNA level and decreased the expression of HSP60. In addition, Se and Se + VE significantly enhanced the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity and the expression of GPx1 and GPx4 in breast muscle tissues. It is noteworthy that all the treatments significantly decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) level in the breast meat. Overall results showed that Se in combination with VE has maximal effects to mitigate heat stress. Based on given results it can be recommended that Se + VE are a suitable dietary supplement for broilers to ameliorate the negative effects of summer heat stress conditions.
