硒对热应激下雄性动物生殖性能的影响及可能机制OA

In livestock production,maintaining an appropriate environmental temperature is crucial for ensuring the reproductive performance of male animals.In recent years,intensification of farming and global warming have increased the susceptibility of male animals to heat stress,leading to irreversible economic losses.In terms of mitigation strategies,in addition to improved feeding management,research on nutritional interventions to alleviate heat stress has become a key focus in the field.Selenium(Se),an essential trace mineral for animals,serves as a core structural component of at least 25 selenoproteins in the body and plays a critical role in physiological metabolism.This article reviews the effects of selenium on the reproductive performance of male animals under heat stress conditions and explores the potential mechanisms,aiming to provide a theoretical reference for utilizing selenium to mitigate heat stress in male animals.
