Organoselenium compounds have found such wide utility because of their effects on an
extraordinary number of very different reactions, including many carbon-carbon bond …

The advance in the area of synthesis and reactivity of organoselenium, as well as the
discovery that selenium was the cause of severe intoxication episodes of livestock in the …

The concept that selenium-containing molecules may be better nucleophiles (and therefore
antioxidants) than classical antioxidants has led to the design of synthetic organoselenium …

It is well known that selenium is highly toxic to several species of mammals. Here we report
the potential neurotoxicity of diselenides, as measured by the manifestation of seizures. The …

Abstract δ-ALA-D is a metalloenzyme that has 3 vicinal thiol/thiolate groups that coordinate
with Zn (ii). The proximity between the sulfhydryl groups renders δ-ALA-D extremely …

In animals, chronic intake of diets with high proportions of rapidly absorbable glucose
promotes the development of insulin resistance. High levels of glucose can produce …

A new class of potential pharmacological thiophenes and furans compounds has been
prepared. The obtained thiophenes and furans derivatives were screened for anti …

Cigarette smoke exposure has been associated with oxidative stress in several organs.
Antioxidant effect of diphenyl diselenide (PhSe) 2, an organoselenium compound, on …

This paper evaluates the ability of organoselenium compounds [ebselen, selenocystine N-
ethyl-carbamate (SeCis), bis-4-isopropyl-2-oxazolinyl phenyl diselenide (AASe)] to prevent …

The aim of this study was examine the effects of high starch (HS) vs. high fat (HF) feeding on
