SELENOW and Alzheimer disease: The selenoproteins GPx4 (glutathione peroxidase 4), GPx1 (glutathione peroxidase 1), SELENOP (selenoprotein P), SELENOK (selenoprotein K), SELENOS (selenoprotein S), SELENOW (selenoprotein W), and SELENOT (selenoprotein T) are highly expressed, specifically in AD-related brain regions being closely correlated to brain function.
