Biological Activity

Description L-SelenoMethionine (SeMet), a naturally occurring amino acid, is a major food-form of selenium. It has been used as a supplement, and exhibits some important functions like cancer prevention and antioxidative defense.
In vitro
In vitro L-SelenoMethionine (SeMet) has also been shown to contribute to the mitigation of radiation-induced oxidative stress. L-SelenoMethionine has the ability to selectively induce apoptosis and growth arrest in cancerous, but not normal, human prostate cells. Mechanistically, SeMet treatment is shown to promote growth inhibition in human colon cancer cells through the phosphorylation of histone H3 via the activation of MAPK extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and subsequent phosphorylation of the ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK)[1].
Cell Research Cell lines Human thyroid epithelial cells (HTori-3)
Concentrations 5 μM
Incubation Time 24 h
Method Human thyroid epithelial cells (HTori-3) are maintained in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM)/F12 supplemented with 1% glutamine and 10% FBS (growth medium). Twenty-four hours prior to irradiation with iron ions, fresh medium with or without 5 μM SeM is added. At the time of radiation exposure, the cells are approximately 80% confluent.
In Vivo
In vivo L-SelenoMethionine (SeMet) increases survival time of NK/Ly lymphoma bearing animals treated with doxorubicin. L-SelenoMethionine (SeMet) can effectively protect the hematopoietic system and liver of tumor-bearing animals with NK/Ly lymphoma from the side effects of anticancer drug doxorubicin, which is revealed by normalization of blood indexes, animal weight, and ALT/AST activity[2].
Animal Research Animal Models NL/Ly lymphoma-bearing mice
Dosages 60 μg/kg, cumulative dose 600 μg/kg

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
