Context.—: A positive association between antithrombin activity and selenium level was reported. Selenoprotein P, the most important selenium carrier, was identified within human plasma fibrin clots.
Objective.—: To investigate the relationship between selenoprotein P and antithrombin and its role in modulation of fibrin clot properties in antithrombin-deficient patients.
Design.—: Proteomic analysis of plasma fibrin clots was performed with mass spectrometry. In 108 patients with genetically confirmed type I (57%) or type II (43%) antithrombin deficiency and in healthy controls (n = 50), we assessed plasma selenoprotein P levels and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, along with fibrin clot permeability, clot lysis time, and thrombin generation.
Results.—: Clot-bound antithrombin concentration was 0.46 ± 0.32 mg/g protein, while selenoprotein P level was 30-fold lower (0.015 ± 0.012 mg/g). Type I compared to type II antithrombin-deficient patients had higher clot-bound antithrombin and selenoprotein P levels (both P < .001), associated together (ρ = 0.93, P < .001). Individuals with type I compared to type II antithrombin deficiency or controls had about 40% lower plasma selenoprotein P levels (P < .001). In antithrombin-deficient patients, plasma selenoprotein P was associated with antithrombin antigen (ρ = 0.35, P < .001) and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (ρ = 0.42, P < .001). Plasma selenoprotein P correlated also with endogenous thrombin potential (r = -0.33, P < .001), fibrin clot permeability (r = 0.43, P < .001), and clot lysis time (r = -0.40, P < .001) in antithrombin-deficient patients but not in controls.
Conclusions.—: Patients with type I antithrombin deficiency had higher clot-bound selenoprotein P and reduced plasma selenoprotein P levels. Plasma selenoprotein P was associated with prothrombotic fibrin clot phenotype and enhanced thrombin generation.

This study aims to investigate the effect of promethazine (PMZ) on hippocampal neuronal injury through network pharmacology and in vivo experiments. Network pharmacology: The intersection genes of PMZ and Alzheimer Disease (AD) were obtained, and the core genes of PMZ in AD were screened. The intersection genes were enriched by Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses.

Background Dietary antioxidant Capacity (DaC) has been used as a tool for predicting plasma and dietary antioxidant concentrations. However, the DaC association with oxidative stress (OS) and body composition parameters is an unexplored area, mainly in physically active individuals. Given the potential for increased OS in physically active individuals, it becomes crucial to investigate this association.

Article Synopsis
- Amazonian tambaqui fish are at risk from global warming due to their proximity to thermal limits.
- The study assessed oxidative stress and biochemical responses in tambaqui exposed to varying temperatures (25.7-37°C) over 60 days.
- Results indicated significant oxidative stress at 37°C, with increased liver damage and enzyme activity changes, suggesting tambaqui can tolerate up to 34°C but suffer detrimental effects at 37°C.

Background: Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for maintaining human health, with significant antioxidant and immunoregulatory functions. Inadequate Se intake may be associated with Keshan disease, Kashin-Beck disease, and hypothyroidism. However, effective indicators for scientifically guiding Se supplementation in Se-deficient populations are still lacking.
