Extracellular thiol-assisted selenium uptake dependent on the x(c)(−) cystine transporter explains the cancer-specific cytotoxicity of selenite

The selenium salt selenite (SeO(3)(2−)) is cytotoxic in low to moderate concentrations, with a remarkable specificity for cancer cells resistant to conventional chemotherapy. Our data show that selenium uptake and accumulation, rather than intracellular events, are crucial to the specific selenite c...
