A falling ratio is widely used in research as a marker of oxidative stress
After that initial boost, most clients transition to maintenance sessions every few weeks or monthly
If a key function of sleep is to defend against oxidative stress accumulated during the wake period, these metabolic changes to prevent oxidative stress in cavefish may be contributing to their shorter sleep phenotype and might mean that differences in sleep between animals or species is due in part to metabolic differences
Simultaneously, hydrogen selenide (H 2 Se) generated from the metabolism of dietary selenium species is converted into selenophosphate (H 2 SePO 3 ) by the enzyme selenophosphate synthetase 2 (SEPHS2) which is then used as a substrate by the enzyme O-phosphoseryl-tRNA [Ser]Sec selenium transferase to incorporate selenium into phosphoseryl-tRNA [Ser]Sec to form Sec-tRNA [ser]sec
