Dietary Selenium Deficiency Accelerates the Onset of Aging‐Related Gut Microbial Changes in Aged Telomere‐Humanized Mice, With Akkermansia muciniphila Being the Most Prominent and Alleviating Selenium Deficiency‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies have shown that dietary selenium (Se) deficiency in mice reshapes gut microbiota, exacerbates healthspan deterioration (e.g., type 2 diabetes), and paradoxically activates beneficial longevity pathways. This study demonstrated that dietary Se deficiency accelerated many age-related gut microbial changes in aged telomere-humanized C57BL/6J diabetic mice in a sexually dimorphic manner, with...
