Se-Methylseleno-L-cysteine hydrochloride（Cat No.:M144147） is a selenium-containing compound. It is a derivative of the amino acid L-cysteine, where a methylseleno group (-SeCH3) replaces the sulfur atom in the cysteine molecule. This compound is a source of organic selenium, a trace element with antioxidant properties and potential health benefits. Se-Methylseleno-L-cysteine is being studied for its potential in cancer prevention and therapy, as selenium is believed to play a role in reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as in regulating cell growth and apoptosis.
