Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Selenoneine is a selenium-containing imidazole compound found in the blood and tissues of tuna. This compound has also been detected in humans, other animals, and microorganisms and is produced in biological cells as a non-toxic selenium compound with strong radical scavenging against hydroxyl radicals. This Special Issue focuses on recent advances in the biological functions and chemical activities of selenoneine. The metabolic pathway of selenoneine and related selenium compounds will be elucidated in the near future.
This Special Issue intends to assemble current findings and perspectives concerning the metabolic pathway and functions of selenium compounds. We recognize your excellent knowledge of the topic and contributions to the field and would like to invite you to submit your latest research findings or a review article to this Special Issue.
We look forward receiving valuable contributions.
Dr. Michiaki Yamashita
Guest Editor
