Selenite enhances mitochondrial respiration in HT22 cells.

<p><b>A</b>, a typical recording of oxygen content reduction in non-selenium- (red curve) and selenium-treated (green curve) cells ; <b>B</b>, a respiration rate in non-treated (red) and selenium-treated (green) HT22 cells; <b><i>C</i></b>, summarized mitochondrial respiratory rate obtained from 3 independent experiments in non-selenium treated (Se^−ve) and selenium treated (Se^+ve) cells. Values are means±s.d. *** p<0.001 by <i>t</i>-test.
