The absence of adaptive changes in tissue activities of glutathione-S-transferase, superoxide dismutase and catalase following selenium and vitamin E supplementation in subjects with low selenium status

Abstract
Three groups of New Zealand women were given daily in a double blind randomised study, 200 micrograms Se as sodium selenite, 170 mg alpha-tocopherol or a placebo for 4 wk. Activities of glutathione-S-transferase, superoxide dismutase and catalase were assayed in erythrocytes, plasma and platelets and in liver and muscle biopsy tissues. No changes in activities of any of these tissue enzymes were observed in any of the three groups. There were also no changes in non-selenium dependent glutathione peroxidase activities in liver or plasma. The lack of changes in any of these enzymes following selenium supplementation suggests that adaptive changes to the low selenium status of these subjects had not occurred through these lipid peroxidation defense mechanisms.
