Erythroid microRNA and oxidant status alterations in l-thyroxine-induced hyperthyroid rats: effects of selenium supplementation

Our findings showed that MDA, SOD and GSH levels increased, and miR-144 and miR-451 expressions changed in hyperthyroidism. Supplementation of 1 mg/kg sodium selenite was more effective than 0.5 mg/kg sodium selenite for normalizing the MDA, GSH, SOD, and miRNA levels in the hyperthyroid group.
