Reversal of oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in T and B lymphocytes by Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10).
Coenzyme Q10, (CoQ10) an electron transporter and an antioxidant, protects a variety of cell types against oxidative stress and apoptosis. However, protective effect of CoQ10 on oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in lymphocytes has not been studied in detail. In this study, we investigated the effect of CoQ10 on oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in lymphocytes. An exposure of peripheral blood ...
متن کاملRole of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in cardiac disease, hypertension and Meniere-like syndrome.
Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is a mitochondrial coenzyme which is essential for the production of ATP. Being at the core of cellular energy processes it assumes importance in cells with high energy requirements like the cardiac cells which are extremely sensitive to CoQ10 deficiency produced by cardiac diseases. CoQ10 has thus a potential role for prevention and treatment of heart ailments by impr...
متن کاملCoenzyme Q10.
Coenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance used in the treatment of a variety of disorders primarily related to suboptimal cellular energy metabolism and oxidative injury. Studies supporting the efficacy of coenzyme Q10 appear most promising for neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease and certain encephalomyopathies for which coenzyme Q10 has gained orphan drug status. Results in ...
متن کاملRole of mitochondrial electron transport complex I in coenzyme Q1 reduction by intact pulmonary arterial endothelial cells and the effect of hyperoxia.
The objective was to determine the impact of intact normoxic and hyperoxia-exposed (95% O(2) for 48 h) bovine pulmonary arterial endothelial cells in culture on the redox status of the coenzyme Q(10) homolog coenzyme Q(1) (CoQ(1)). When CoQ(1) (50 microM) was incubated with the cells for 30 min, its concentration in the medium decreased over time, reaching a lower level for normoxic than hypero...
