This study provides evidence supporting the theory that the presence of selenocysteine in proteins, such as thioredoxin reductase, may confer chemical reversibility, which contributes to their oxidative resistance and potential catalytic functions.

This study found that concurrent administration of cycloleucine with ethionine prevented the weakening of wool fibers in sheep, whereas reduced glutathione did not have the same effect.

This study observed that the intestinal absorption of selenium varies depending on its chemical form, with selenomethionine being absorbed efficiently and selenium as selenodiglutathione or selenodicysteine being absorbed faster than selenite.

In this mouse study, severe selenoprotein deficiency in epidermal cells was linked to skin abnormalities, disrupted hair follicle development, and progressive alopecia, highlighting the role of selenoproteins in skin and hair health.
