mRNA expression of phase II enzymes in the colon (n = 9) and duodenum (n = 6) of selenium-poor (−Se) relative to selenium-adequate (+Se) mice. a NADPH:quinone oxidoreductase (Nqo1), b glutathione S-transferase a1/a2 (Gsta1/a2), c glutathione S-transferase m1 (Gstm1), d glutathione S-transferase p1 (Gstp1), e sulfotransferase 1b1 (Sult1b1), f UDP glucuronosyltransferase 1a6 a/b (Ugt1a6 a/b). Gene expression was analyzed by qPCR and normalized to Rpl13a in the duodenum and to the mean of the reference genes Hprt1 and Rpl13a in the colon. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; versus +Se set to 1 analyzed by unpaired Student’s t-test
