Selenium concentrations and antioxidant enzymes activities in rat during selenium deficiency and sodium selenite and selenium-enriched Spirulina supplementations.

Résumé : ISelenium is an essential trace element essential for human life mainly due to its antioxidant properties through selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidase. Spirulina is a blue-green algae known for its nutritive, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and could be enriched in selenium during its culture. We showed that a selenium deficiency led to a sharp […]

Muscle fiber plays a critical role in therapeutic response to glucocorticoids during myositis

Résumé : Introduction. Myositis are autoimmune diseases characterized by chronic inflammation of skeletal muscle and muscle weakness.Glucocorticoids (GC), the first line treatment of myositis, improve muscle strength, but recovery is partial and, chronically, they lead to steroid myopathy. Thus, myositis care has to be improved. GC effects are mediated by glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which is expressed […]
