Coenzyme Q10 Supplementation in Aging and Disease
Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is an essential component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and an antioxidant in plasma membranes and lipoproteins. It is endogenously produced in all cells by a highly regulated pathway that involves a mitochondrial multiprotein complex. Defects in either the structural and/or regulatory components of CoQ complex or in non-CoQ biosynthetic mitochondrial proteins c...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q10 supplementation and heart failure.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world. Oxidative stress appears to play a pivotal role in atherosclerosis. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), one of the most important antioxidants, is synthesized de novo by every cell in the body. Its biosynthesis decreases with age and its deficit in tissues is associated with degenerative changes of aging, thus ...
متن کاملCerebellar ataxia with coenzyme Q10 deficiency: diagnosis and follow-up after coenzyme Q10 supplementation.
UNLABELLED Our aim was to report a new case with cerebellar ataxia associated with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ) deficiency, the biochemical findings caused by this deficiency and the response to CoQ supplementation. PATIENT A 12-year-old girl presenting ataxia and cerebellar atrophy. BIOCHEMICAL STUDIES: Coenzyme Q10 in muscle was analysed by HPLC with electrochemical detection and mitochondrial respir...
متن کاملReduced coenzyme Q10 supplementation decelerates senescence in SAMP1 mice.
The SAMP1 strain is a mouse model for accelerated senescence and severe senile amyloidosis. We determined whether supplementation with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) could decelerate aging in SAMP1 mice and its potential role in aging. Plasma concentrations of CoQ10 and CoQ9 decreased with age in SAMP1 but not in SAMR1 mice. Supplementation with reduced CoQ10 (CoQH2, 250 mg/kg/day) for one week increased...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q10 effects in neurodegenerative disease
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an essential cofactor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, and as a dietary supplement it has recently gained attention for its potential role in the treatment of neurodegenerative disease. Evidence for mitochondrial dysfunction in neurodegenerative disorders derives from animal models, studies of mitochondria from patients, identification of genetic defects in patien...
