Selenoprotein T (SelT or SELENOT) is a novel thioredoxin-like enzyme whose genetic ablation in mice results in early embryonic lethality. SelT exerts an essential cytoprotective action during development and after injury through its redox-active catalytic site. The present study aims to determine the expression and regulation of SelT in the mammalian heart in normal and pathological conditions, and to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of a SelT-derived peptide, SelT43-52(PSELT) encompassing the redox motif which is key to its function, against ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury.

Abstract

Selenoprotein T (SelT or SELENOT) is a novel thioredoxin-like enzyme whose genetic ablation in mice results in early embryonic lethality. SelT exerts an essential cytoprotective action during development and after injury through its redox-active catalytic site. The present study aims to determine the expression and regulation of SelT in the mammalian heart in normal and pathological conditions, and to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of a SelT-derived peptide, SelT43-52(PSELT) encompassing the redox motif which is key to its function, against ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury.
