Abstract

Selenium has been used traditionally for its various roles in traditional dosage forms, specifically for enhancing memory and overall human health. As per a recent research study, selenium is found to be safe. The positive role of selenium and its protein (SELENOP) promises to control and manage neurodegenerative diseases by directly and indirectly interacting with the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and Huntington's disease (HD). Selenium, combined with established drugs for neurodegenerative diseases, is explored in its nanoformulation, elevating its therapeutic action. Selenium can be a good candidate in exploring prevention and managing less explored diseases like Huntington's disease (HD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. Selenium is used as a neuroprotective agent by redox regulation and antioxidant defense mechanisms, which protect neurons from oxidative damage.
