The b <sup>0+</sup> Amino Acid Transporter Defines a Selenium-utilization Enterocyte Program in the Human Intestine

2026-05-30

Abstract excerpt

Selenium is an essential trace element incorporated into selenoproteins as selenocysteine, yet the intestinal cellular programs associated with selenium utilization remain poorly defined. Here, we performed a large-scale single-cell transcriptomic analysis of 169,068 human enterocytes from 105 donors to systematically profile nine candidate selenium transporter systems and their relationship to selenoprotein expre...
