Selenium and Oxidant Injury in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 264))

Abstract

Malnutrition in cystic fibrosis (CF) has been associated with poor dietary intake, maldigestion and malabsorption of food, and increased nutrient requirements secondary to chronic: infection1. Recent studies have suggested that nutritional status influenced the progression of disease and nutritional supplementation was frequently included in the comprehensive management of this desease. But, children with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, as observed in CF, might have secondary deficiency of the essential micronutrients specially Selenium (Se) deficiency2,3.
