Fig. 6From: Dietary selenium augments sarcoplasmic calcium release and mechanical performance in miceSelenoprotein N expression increased in selenium treated mice. Representative Western blot image showing the expression of selenoprotein N in EDL and SOL muscles from a control mouse and a mouse fed with 0.5 ppm NanoSe or selenate for two weeks (a). Actin was used as loading control. Quantified expression of selenoprotein N in EDL and SOL muscles of selenium treated mice normalized to actin and control (b). * denotes significant difference from control at level P < 0.05. Numbers in parenthesis give the number of animals fed with 0.5 ppm NanoSe or selenateBack to article page
