The effect of coenzyme Q10 (Co Q10) was examined on the survival time and lipid peroxidation of adriamycin (ADM)-treated ICR mice. Co Q10 showed a protective effect against a subacute toxicity in mice induced by two intraperitoneal administrations of ADM (15 mg/kg). The group treated orally with 10 mg/kg of Co Q10 showed the longest survival time of all the groups studied (16.81 +/- 10.29 days,...

Coenzyme Q10 (Q10) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) were prepared by the high speed homogenization method and incorporated into Carbopol 974P hydrogels. Compritol 888 ATO (C888) was employed as the lipid base; Poloxamer 188 (P188) and Tween 80 (Tw80) were used as surfactant and co-surfactant. Optimum particle size with narrow distribution was obtained as 152.2 nm for blank and 142.4 nm fo...

The biological properties of the nonclassical class I MHC molecules secreted into blood and tissue fluids are not currently understood. To address this issue, we studied the murine Q10 molecule, one of the most abundant, soluble class Ib molecules. Mass spectrometry analyses of hybrid Q10 polypeptides revealed that alpha1alpha2 domains of Q10 associate with 8-9 long peptides similar to the clas...

Nanocapsule suspensions containing coenzyme Q10 were prepared by interfacial deposition. The nanocapsules showed characteristics compatible with dermal application: slightly acid pH, drug content close to 100%, particle size between 213 and 248 nm with low polydispersity and negative zeta potential. Three cosmetic formulations for skin application were developed, one with the free-coenzyme Q10,...

We investigated relationships between DNA copy number aberrations and chromosomal structural rearrangements in 11 different cell lines derived from oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) by comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), spectral karyotyping (SKY), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). CGH frequently showed recurrent chromosomal gains of 5p, 20q12, 8q23 approximately qter, 20p11...

Article history: Received: .................. Accepted: ................... Available online: ........ ZJRMS 2015 Sep; X(X): XX-XX Background: Heavy exercise cause muscle damage associated with very-high production of free radicals. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of acute and 14-day coenzyme Q10 supplementation on oxidative stress and muscle damage indicator in elite male m...

today, in parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. the coenzyme q10 plays a vital role in cellular energy production. it also increases the body's immune system via its antioxidant activity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of coenzyme q10 on physicochemical properties of or...

We applied a combination of molecular cytogenetic methods, including comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), spectral karyotyping (SKY), and fluorescence in situ hybridization, to characterize the genetic aberrations in a panel of 11 cell lines derived from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and 1 cell line derived from premalignant oral epithelium. CGH identified recurrent chromosomal loss...

In this communication, the concept is developed that coenzyme Q10 has a toti-potent role in the regulation of cellular metabolism. The redox function of coenzyme Q10 leads to a number of outcomes with major impacts on sub-cellular metabolism and gene regulation. Coenzyme Q10's regulatory activities are achieved in part, through the agency of its localization in the various sub-cellular membrane...

The present study was designed to investigate the potential protective effect of Coenzyme Q10 against the testicular toxicity of cadmium in male rabbits. Four groups of animals were used in this study (control, Coenzyme Q10, cadmium chloride-treated (5 mg/kg), cadmium chloride plus Coenzyme Q10 (10 mg/kg) for 30 days). Results showed normal testicular tissue in control and coenzyme Q10 groups. ...
