A series of prostaglandin F2-like compounds are produced in vivo in humans by a non-cyclooxygenase, free radical-catalyzed mechanism.
TL;DR: It is found that a series of prostaglandin F2-like compounds are produced in vivo in humans by a non-cyclooxygenase mechanism involving free radical-catalyzed peroxidation of arachidonic acid, and that these prostanoids may participate as pathophysiological mediators in oxidant injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
SELENOPROTEIN P: An Extracellular Protein with Unique Physical Characteristics and a Role in Selenium Homeostasis
Raymond F. Burk,Kristina E. Hill +1 more
TL;DR: Selenoprotein P binds to endothelial cells in the rat, and plasma levels of the protein correlate with prevention of diquat-induced lipid peroxidation and hepatic endothelial cell injury, indicating that plasma selenop protein P is the better index of human selenium nutritional status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selenoprotein P-expression, functions, and roles in mammals.
Raymond F. Burk,Kristina E. Hill +1 more
TL;DR: Plasma Sepp1 concentration falls in selenium deficiency and, therefore, it can be used as an index of seenium nutritional status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deletion of Selenoprotein P Alters Distribution of Selenium in the Mouse
Kristina E. Hill,Jiadong Zhou,Wendy J. McMahan,Amy K. Motley,John F. Atkins,Raymond F. Gesteland,Raymond F. Burk +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that Se-P from liver provides selenium to several tissues, especially testis and brain, and indicate that transport forms of seenium other than Se-p exist because selenia levels of all tissues except testis responded to increases of dietary selenIUM in Sepp −/− mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of Selenium Metabolism and Transport
Raymond F. Burk,Kristina E. Hill +1 more
TL;DR: The regulated whole-body pool of selenium is shifted to needy cells and then to vital selenoproteins in them to supply seenium where it is needed, creating a whole- body seleniprotein hierarchy.
