BACKGROUND The most leading cause of death in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients are cardiovascular disease and inflammatory markers are related to coronary events. CO-Q10 (coenzyme Q10) is a protective supplement from free radical oxidative damage. In addition, hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factor. OBJECTIVES Due to increasing oxidative stress...

BACKGROUND Heavy exercise cause muscle damage associated with production of inflammatory agents. The purpose of present study was to determine the effect of acute and 14-day Coenzyme Q10 supplementation on inflammatory, blood lactate and muscle damage in male middle-distance runners. METHODS Eighteen male middle-distance runners in a randomized and quasi experimental study were allocated into...

BACKGROUND High oxidative stress and chronic inflammation can contribute to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Coenzyme Q10 is an endogenous lipid-soluble antioxidant. Statins therapy can reduce the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q10. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a coenzyme Q10 supplement (300 mg/d; 150 mg/b.i.d) on antioxidation and anti-inflammation in...

BACKGROUND It has been reported that higher levels of oxidative stress and inflammation play a key role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after surgery. Coenzyme Q10 is an endogenous lipid-soluble antioxidant. To date, no intervention study has investigated coenzyme Q10 supplementation in HCC patients after surgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate oxidative stres...

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10, ubiquinone) is an essential cofactor in the electron transport chain, serves as a potent antioxidant in mitochondria and lipid membranes, and is often used as a dietary supplement for a number of diseases including cardiovascular diseases. Recently, we obtained evidence that CoQ10 (Kaneka Q10) affects the expression of hundreds of human genes. To decipher the functional and...

conclusions an adjuvant therapy with tlc diet and supplementation with q10 and lc seems to be required for secondary prevention following mi and pci. tlc diet and q10 plus lc appeared to be effective in inflammatory biomarkers of isr as well as ldl reduction. methods this single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted on 128 subjects. after randomization for treatment allocation, the su...
