“… Selenium content in wild type and MsrA - / - mice. The selenium content (ppm) was measured by the relevant NAA method [ 20 , 21 ] in brain, liver and kidney using the same dry mass tissue from each organ. The quality control Sample was NIST SRM 1577 Bovine Liver (certified Se concentration = 1.1 +/- 0.1 ppm).…”

“…The procedure to determine selenium in tissues is a based on the previously describe method by McKown and Morris [ 20 ], and that was modified according to Spatevl et al . [ 21 ]. The mouse tissues were air-dried and their masses were determined prior to the NAA analysis, performed by Dr. Morris at the University of Missouri-Columbia Research Reactor Center (Columbia, MO).…”

Selenium is a chemical element participating in the synthesis of selenocysteine residues that play a pivotal role in the enzymatic activity efficiency of selenoproteines. The methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) system that reduces methionine sulfoxide (MetO) to methionine comprises the selenoprotein MsrB (MsrB1) and the non-selenoprotein MsrA, which reduce the R- and the S- forms of MetO, respectively. The effects of a selenium deficient (SD) diet, which was administrated to wild type (WT) and MsrA knockout mice (MsrA-/-), on the expression and function of Msr-related proteins are examined and discussed. Additionally, new data about the levels of selenium in brain, liver, and kidneys of WT and MsrA-/- mice are presented and discussed.
