mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes in the colon (n = 9) and duodenum (n = 6) of selenium-poor (−Se) relative to selenium-adequate (+Se) mice. a Heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox1), b metallothionein 2 (Mt2), c peroxiredoxin 1 (Prdx1), d sulfiredoxin 1 (Srxn1), e superoxide dismutase 1 (Sod1), f γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase, catalytic subunit (Gclc). Gene expression was analyzed by qPCR and normalized to Rpl13a in the duodenum and to the mean of the reference genes Hprt1 and Rpl13a in the colon. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001 versus +Se set to 1 analyzed by unpaired Student’s t-test
