Abstract:

Thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is an organ specific autoimmune disease related to autoimmune thyroid disease, which ranks first in adult orbital disease. Selenium is an essential biological trace element in human body, which maintains the body function through the action of selenium protein. It has demonstrated that selenium has a certain effect on mild active TAO. At the same time, the European Graves′ ophthalmopathy collaborative group on Graves orbitopathy clinical practice guidlines recommend that the early mild TAO patients should be treated with selenium, which can improve the eye symptoms, the quality of life and prevent the disease from escalating. However, its mechanism is still unclear. Based on these, the treatment mechanism, application and its prospect of selenium preparation in TAO were reviewed.

Key words: Thyroid associated ophthalmopathy, Selenium, Selenoprotein, Oxidative stress
