A new organic Se compound, 2‐hydroxy‐4‐methylselenobutanoic acid (SeO), was shown to be more bioavailable than Na 2 SeO 3 or seleno‐yeast (SeY) to chicks, hens, and pigs. This study was to determine regulations of 26 selenoprotein genes, 5 selenoproteins (GPX1, GPX4, SEPP1, SEPW1, and SELU), and 5 selenocystenine biosynthesis and degradation‐related genes ( Pstk , SeciSbp2 , Sephs1 , SepSecS , and Scly ) by the three sources of Se in liver, breast, thigh, and/or plasma of chicks. Day‐old male broilers (n = 6 cages/diet, 6 chicks/cage) were fed a Se deficient, corn/soy‐based diet (BD, 0.05 mg Se/kg) or the BD supplemented with Na 2 SeO 3 , SeY, or SeO at 0.2 mg Se/kg for 6 weeks. While the three sources of Se enhanced (P < 0.05) mRNA levels of Gpx1 , Gpx3 , Sepp1 , Pstk , and SepSecS in all three tissues over the BD group, only SeO upregulated (P < 0.05) the expression of Sels and Sepx1 in the liver and thigh. Compared with Na 2 SeO 3 , SeO caused greater increases (P < 0.05) in expression of Gpx3 mRNA and GPX4, SELU, and SEPP1 proteins in the three tissues and/or plasma. A greater (P < 0.05) expression of GPX4 and SEPP1 protein in the three tissues and/or plasma and Sepp1 and SepSecS mRNA in the two muscles was produced by SeO than SeY. In conclusion, SeO exhibited a unique ability to induce the expression of Sels and Sepx1 mRNA and to enhance the production of GPX4 and SEPP1 proteins in the chick tissues.
