Purpose: The solubility of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in water is extremely low, resulting in a low oral bioavailability. In this study, we attempted to improve the low dissolution and bioavailability of CoQ10, by means of the complexation with natural α-, βand γ-cyclodextrins (CyDs) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CyD (HP-β-CyD). Methods: The complexation of CoQ10 with CyDs was studied by the solubility metho...

It remains unclear how soil microbes respond to labile organic carbon (LOC) inputs and temperature sensitivity (Q10) of matter (SOM) decomposition is affected by LOC in a short-term. In this study, 13C-labeled glucose was added pristine grassland at four temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25 °C), the immediate utilization native SOM measured minutely We found that addition stimulated decomposition, elev...

Leopard frog saccular hair cells exhibit an electrical resonance in response to a depolarizing stimulus that has been proposed to contribute to the tuning properties of the frog sacculus by acting as an electrical band-pass filter. With the whole cell patch-clamp technique, we have investigated the effect of temperature on electrical resonances in isolated saccular hair cells, and we have descr...

DNA methylation of two murine major histocompatibility complex (H-2) class I genes was examined in hybridizations to MspI and HpaII chromosomal DNA restriction digests. Q10, which exhibits liver-specific expression, and H-2Kb, a transplantation antigen gene, were examined in liver, spleen, thymus, and cell-line DNAs. Unmethylated Q10 gene sequences were detected only in the liver, whereas the H...
