The present study was designed to investigate whether there is any correlation between the
anticarcinogenic efficacy of selenium (Se) compounds and tissue Se retention under high …

Experimental studies with rodents indicate that selenium supplementation at levels above
the dietary requirement is capable of protecting against tumorigenesis induced by chemical …

The relative effectiveness of either sodium selenite or selenomethionine in the inhibition of
mammary carcinogenesis was studied in virgin female Sprague-Dawley rats. In one …

Methylated selenides are prominent metabolites at the dietary levels used for obtaining
anticarcinogenic effects with selenium. The present study reports the chemopreventive …

Cancer chemoprevention by high levels of selenium, including compounds like sodium
selenite or selenomethionine, is generally not accompanied by increases in known …

The anticarcinogenic activity of selenium in animal models is well established. The active
forms of selenium involved have not been identified to date, but conversion of selenium via …

The experiments reported herein examined the inhibitory role of selenium in chemical
carcinogen-induced mouse mammary tumorigenesis. The results from four different …

The present study was designed to investigate the effect of selenium supplementation on
dimethylbenz [a] anthracene-induced mammary tumorigenesis in female Sprague-Dawley …

Selenium has been reported to affect glutathione (GSH) concentrations in short-term animal-
feeding experiments. Given the central role that this tripeptide plays in maintaining cellular …

Selenium supplementation has been shown for many years to work as an anticarcinogenic
agent both in epidemiology and in in vitro studies. Selenium supplementation has recently …
