Biological Activity
Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride (100-400 μM; 3 days) induces apoptosis in SKOV-33 cells[1].
?
Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride (100-400 μM; 3 days) induces caspase-3 mediated apoptosis[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
? Alzheimer's disease (AD) mice are treats with Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride (0.75 mg/kg BW per day) in their drinking water for 10 months. Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride reduces oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation; Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride modulates the distribution and levels of several metal ions; Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride decreases amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) generation by inhibiting the expression of its precursor protein APP and β-secretase (BACE1), and attenuates tau hyperphosphorylation and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) formation via promoting protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity, thereby preserving synaptic proteins and neuron activities and finally improving spatial learning and memory deficits in AD model mice[3].

Selenium-SelK-GPX4 axis protects nucleus pulposus cells against mechanical overloading-induced ferroptosis and attenuates senescence of intervertebral disc. [Abstract]2024 Jan 22;81(1):49. PMID: 38252317
Se-Methylselenocysteine hydrochloride purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Cell Mol Life Sci. 2024 Jan 22;81(1):49. [Abstract]
qPCR and Western blotting revealed that high strain loading reduced the GPX4 mRNA and protein level while Se-Met (2 mg/L, Se-Methylselenocysteine) supplementation promoted GPX4 expression.

The results of Immunofluorescence for Col-2 suggested that Se-Met (2 mg/mL, Se-Methylselenocysteine) supplementation promoted the expression of Col-2 but ML210 restricted this effect.
