Sodium Selenite Attenuates Monocrotaline-Induced Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension by Upregulating GPX3 and Ameliorating Vascular Remodeling.

Selenium deficiency is implicated in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This study investigated the effects of sodium selenite (SSE) on PAH and its underlying mechanisms. In a monocrotaline-induced PAH rat model, SSE treatment significantly improved right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP), me...
