“…Effects of Se on apoptosis is recorded in in vitro experiments with various cell lines including SWO-38 human glioma cells, A549/DDP human lung adenocarcinoma cells, HL-60 leukaemia cell, a549 human lung cancer cells, MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells, normal human skin fibroblasts, cervico-uterine cancer cells and prostate cancer cells. These experiments have used a variety of inorganic and organic Se supplements including sodium selenite, SeMet, modified Se nanoparticles, methylseleninic acid, Se-containing phycocyanin (Se-PC) and 22-oxo-26-selenocyanocholestane [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 ]. Hawkes et al have carried out a Se supplementation study with 16 healthy men for 1 year with 300 μg/day of high selenized yeast or placebo.…”
