Abstract The selenocysteine (Sec) tRNA (tRNA[Ser]Sec) governs Sec insertion into selenoproteins by the recoding of a UGA codon, typically used as stop codon. A homozygous point mutation (C65G) in human tRNA[Ser]Sec acceptor arm has been reported two independent groups and was associated with symptoms such thyroid dysfunction low blood selenium levels; however, extent altered selenoprotein synthesis resulting from this yet to be comprehensively investigated. In study, we CRISPR/Cas9 technology engineer heterozygous mutant cells, which then compared parental cell lines. This C65G affected many aspects integrity activity. Firstly, expression level significantly reduced due an recruitment RNA polymerase III at promoter. Secondly, strongly altered, but, more surprisingly, it no longer sensitive supplementation. Mass spectrometry analyses revealed isoform unmodified wobble nucleotide U34 cells that correlated activities. Overall, study demonstrates pleiotropic effect single on both phenotype selenoproteome expression.

Physiological levels of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) function as fundamental messengers for many cellular developmental processes in the cardiovascular system. ROS/RNS involved cardiac redox-signaling originate from diverse sources, their are tightly controlled by key endogenous antioxidant systems that counteract accumulation. However, dysregulated redox-stress resulting inefficient removal leads to inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, cell death, contributing development progression disease (CVD).

Abstract There is a growing literature investigating the effects of selenium on central nervous system and cognitive function. However, little known about role selenoprotein P, main transporter, which can also have adverse biological effects. We conducted prospective cohort study individuals aged 42–81 years who received clinical diagnosis mild impairment. Using sandwich ELISA methods, we measured full-length P concentrations in serum cerebrospinal fluid to assess relation with dementia incidence during median follow-up 47.3 months. used Cox proportional hazards regression restricted cubic splines model such relation. Of 54 participants, 35 developed (including 26 cases Alzheimer’s dementia).

Selenium is an essential trace element in our diet, crucial for the composition of human selenoproteins, which include 25 genes such as glutathione peroxidases and thioredoxin reductases. The regulation selenoproteome primarily hinges on bioavailability selenium, either from dietary sources or cell culture media. This selenium-dependent control follows a specific hierarchy, with “housekeeping” selenoproteins maintaining constant expression while “stress-regulated” counterparts respond to selenium level fluctuations. study investigates variability fetal bovine serum (FBS) concentrations among commercial batches its effects stress-related cellular selenoproteins.
