Alzheimer's disease (AD) mice are treats with Se-Methylselenocysteine (0.75 mg\/kg BW per day) in their drinking water for 10 months. Se-Methylselenocysteine reduces oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation; Se-Methylselenocysteine modulates the distribution and levels of several metal ions; Se-Methylselenocysteine decreases amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) generation by inhibiting the expression of its precursor protein APP and β-secretase (BACE1), and attenuates tau hyperphosphorylation and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) formation via promoting protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity, thereby preserving synaptic proteins and neuron activities and finally improving spatial learning and memory deficits in AD model mice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReferences:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col style=\"padding-left:1em;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYeo JK, et al.
