Human coenzyme Q (CoQ10) or ubiquinone is mainly known for its bioenergetic role as a proton and electron carrier in the inner mitochondrial membrane and is also an endogenous lipophilic antioxidant, ubiquitous in biological membranes. It is also present in plasma lipoproteins, where it plays a well-recognized antioxidant role.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a provitamin manufactured by the body. It functions as a coenzyme for mitochondrial enzymes. It has been shown to be deficient in patients with cardiovascular disease, cancer, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), muscular dystrophy, spontaneous abortion, male infertility, and periodontal disease.

Summary Rats which were unilaterally nephrectomized and treated with deoxycorticosterone acetate and saline developed hypertension, and had an increased heart weight. Treatment of these rats with coenzyme Q10 effected a lower level of hypertension and normalized the heart weight.

Clinical aspects of coenzyme Q10: an update
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 2005Coenzyme Q10 is administered for an ever-widening range of disorders, therefore it is timely to illustrate the latest findings with special emphasis on areas in which this therapeutic approach is completely new. These findings also give further insight into the biochemical mechanisms underlying clinical involvement of coenzyme Q10.Cardiovascular ...

Statins inhibit 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, thereby reducing production of farnesyl pyrophosphate, an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway. The mevalonate pathway ultimately produces both cholesterol and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a protein important for mitochondrial function.

Coenzyme Q10 in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2003Coenzyme Q(10) (ubiquinone), which serves as the electron acceptor for complexes I and II of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and also acts as an antioxidant, has the potential to be a beneficial agent in neurodegenerative diseases in which there is impaired mitochondrial function and/or excessive oxidative damage.

Coenzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone, Ubidecarenone)
2003Moore and colleagues identified coenzyme Q10 in 1940 (Greenberg and Frishman, 1988). In 1957, coenzyme Q10 was isolated from beef heart by Dr. Frederick Crane. Karl Folkers, a scientist at Merck Sharpe and Dohme, elucidated its chemical formula the following year. In 1972, Dr. Folkers and an Italian researcher identified a deficiency of coenzyme Q10 in
