Reduced expressions of calmodulin genes and protein and reduced ability of calmodulin to activate plasma membrane Ca2+‐ATPase in the brain of protein undernourished rats: modulatory roles of selenium and zinc supplementation

In conclusion, it is postulated that Se and Zn might be beneficial antioxidants in protecting against neuronal dysfunction resulting from reduced level of calmodulin such as present in protein undernutrition. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
