Effects of selenium supplementation on plasma and milk of lactating women of habitually low selenium status

Creator:: Moore, Michelle L.
Abstract:: Twenty-one women, lifelong residents of Xichang County, Sichuan Province, China, an area of very low soil selenium (Se), received tablets containing either 100 μg Se daily as Se-enriched yeast (+Se) or no additional Se (-Se), throughout the last trimester of pregnancy and the first three months of lactation. Diet was...

Effect of dietary fluoride on selenite toxicity in the rat

Creator:: Yu, Qing, 1966-
Abstract:: Two factorial experiments were conducted to determine if high dietary fluoride would inhibit selenite toxicity in rats. In each study, two levels of selenite (0.05 and 5 mg/kg diet) were matched against two levels of fluoride (1 and 150 mg/kg diet) for either 6 or 8 weeks. Fluoride failed to...

A metabolic function of selenium, assessed with rat liver homogenates

Creator:: Bull, Richard Charles
Abstract:: In three separate trials rats were fed either a basal diet deficient in selenium and vitamin E or the same diet supplemented with one or both of these factors. In addition to these treatments in two of the trials, ethoxyquin was included to provide adequate lipid antioxidant protection and to...

Effects of selenium and glutathione peroxidase on the biosynthesis of prostaglandin E₂ and F₂α by the ram vesicular gland

Creator:: Abdelgadir, Salaheldin Eltigani
Abstract:: This study was conducted to investigate the involvement of selenium and glutathione peroxidase in prostaglandin biosynthesis by the ram vesicular gland. Vesicular glands were collected from healthy intact rams covering a wide range of selenium nutrition and were analyzed for selenium concentrations, glutathione peroxidase activities and levels of prostaglandin E₂...

The effect of selenium deficiency on the fatty acid metabolism of rats and lambs

Creator:: Fischer, William Carl
Abstract:: Selenium deficiency in rats results in increased carbon metabolism, approaching twice the rate of selenium supplemented animals (normal). This is also reflected in a 50 percent increase in lysosomal enzyme activity in tissues of selenium deficient animals. Isolation of rat liver lysosomes shows a 17 percent increase in membrane thickness...

Selenium effects and species differences in hepatic metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and other xenobiotics

Creator:: Shull, Lee R.
Abstract:: The metabolism of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and other drugs was studied with regard to nutritional status and species differences. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids which are biotransformed to severely toxic metabolites were isolated from tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea). Semi-purified alkaloid crystals containing five alkaloids (senecionine, seneciophylline, jacobine, jacoline, and jacozine) were prepared and found...

The effect of selenium on the fatty acid profiles of human breast milk in Chinese women

Creator:: Dodge, Marcie L.
Abstract:: Numerous dietary factors have been shown to influence the fatty acid profiles (FAP) in breast milk from lactating women. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of trace minerals on milk FAP. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of selenium status on the FAP in...

Influence of dietary selenium on the distribution of tritium-labeled vitamin E in the rate

Creator:: Cheeke, Peter R.
Abstract:: A series of four trials were conducted to determine the influence of selenium supplementation of a selenium- and vitamin E-deficient basal diet on the absorption, excretion, tissue distribution and placental transfer of a single dose of tritium-labeled α-tocopherol in the rat. In the first trial, the effect of supplementation of...

Some possible roles for selenium in the reproductive physiology of the male graytailed vole (Microtus canicaudus)

Creator:: Whitfield, Stephen Curtiss
Abstract:: The testes of the gray-tailed vole (Microtus canicaudus Miller) exhibited a high affinity for selenium relative to other selected tissues. Uptake of selenium-75 in the testis-epididymis complex was delayed relative to uptake by the whole body, kidney, and liver. This pattern of uptake suggested that selenium was metabolically incorporated into...
