    Abstract Selenium is regulated in the body to maintain vital selenoproteins and to avoid toxicity. When selenium is limiting, cells utilize it to synthesize the selenoproteins most important to them, creating a selenoprotein hierarchy in the cell. The liver is the central organ for selenium regulation and produces excretory selenium forms to regulate whole-body selenium. It responds to selenium deficiency by curtailing excretion and secreting selenoprotein P (Sepp1) into the plasma at the expense of its intracellular selenoproteins. Plasma Sepp1 is distributed to tissues in relation to their expression of the Sepp1 receptor apolipoprotein E receptor-2, creating a tissue selenium hierarchy. N-terminal Sepp1 forms are taken up in the renal proximal tubule by another receptor, megalin. Thus, the regulated whole-body pool of selenium is shifted to needy cells and then to vital selenoproteins in them to supply selenium where it is needed, creating a whole-body selenoprotein hierarchy.

    Abstract Selenium is an essential constituent of a number of enzymes, some of which have antioxidant functions. Deficiency of the element in animals makes them susceptible to injury by certain types of oxidative stress. At least 1 human disease occurs only in selenium-deficient individuals. Therefore, it seems prudent to avoid selenium deficiency. The plasma (or serum) selenium concentration is often used to assess selenium nutritional status. A plasma selenium concentration of 8 micrograms/dL or greater in a healthy subject indicates that plasma selenoproteins are optimized and the subject is selenium replete. The Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey determined plasma selenium in 17,630 subjects in the United States. Its results indicate that more than 99% of the subjects studied were selenium replete. The Institute of Medicine has set the Recommended Dietary Allowance for selenium at 55 micrograms per day for adults. Since most estimates of selenium intake in the United States are 80 micrograms per day or greater, routine selenium supplementation is not recommended in the United States.

    Abstract Selenium is an essential trace element that serves a number of metabolic functions. Its recommended dietary allowance has been set at 55 µg per day for adults. Selenium deficiency has not been reported to occur in healthy persons in the United States and Canada. However, many people in the world have suboptimal intakes of the element and may suffer clinical consequences. Certain viruses become more virulent by being passed through selenium-deficient animals. This might have public health consequences because viruses of clinical significance infect selenium-deficient populations in China and elsewhere. Selenium has also been promoted as a cancer chemopreventive agent when given at supranutritional levels. Studies are underway to evaluate this use of the element.
