The mechanisms involved in the anti-carcinogenic activity of selenium remain to be elucidated. In the present study, we examined sodium selenite-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in a human hepatoma cell line (HepG 2 ). Sodium selenite (10 M) exerted clear cytotoxic effect, as shown by the sign
Evidence is growing that reactive oxygen species (ROS), by-products of (normal) cellular aerobic metabolism, are involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. One of these diseases is amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), in which motoneurons die, leading to paralysis and death. It rema
