Current study on Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) therapeutic role in neurodegenerative diseases

Molecular Biology Reports
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a naturally occurring redox-active compound with potent antioxidant, mitochondrial-enhancing, and neuroprotective properties. Originally identified as a cofactor in bacterial enzymes, PQQ has garnered significant interest for its potential therapeutic role in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease ...

Synthesis and crystal structure of pyrroloquinoline quinol (PQQH2) and pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ).

Acta Crystallographica Section B Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials, 2017
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a water-soluble quinone compound first identified as a cofactor of alcohol- and glucose-dehydrogenases (ADH and GDH) in bacteria. For example, in the process of ADH reaction, alcohol is oxidized to the corresponding aldehyde, and inversely PQQ is reduced to pyrroloquinoline quinol (PQQH2).

Understanding the Inhibitory and Antioxidant Effects of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ) on Copper(II)-Induced α-Synuclein-119 Aggregation.

ACS Chemical Neuroscience, 2022
Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with the aggregation and misfolding of a-synuclein (a-syn) protein in dopaminergic neurons. The misfolding process is heavily linked to copper dysregulation in PD.

Electrochemical flow injection analysis of the interaction between pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and α-synuclein peptides related to Parkinson's disease.

In Analysis, 2021
α-Synuclein (α-syn) is a hallmark protein of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aggregation process of α-syn has been heavily associated with the pathogenesis of PD. With the exponentially growing number of potential therapeutic compounds that can inhibit the

Genotoxicity of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) disodium salt (BioPQQ™)

Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2013
The genotoxic potential of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) disodium salt (BioPQQ™) was evaluated in a battery of genotoxicity tests. The results of the bacterial mutation assay (Ames test) were negative. Weak positive results were obtained in 2 separate in vitro chromosomal aberration test in Chinese hamster lung (CHL) fibroblasts. Upon testing in an in

Oxidation of polyamines by pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)

Tetrahedron, 1989
Abstract Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was found to oxidize the polyamines spermine and spermidine in stoichiometric amounts with diaminopropane as the main product identified by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectroscopy of the reaction products.

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) prevents fibril formation of α-synuclein

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2006
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a noncovalently bound cofactor in the bacterial oxidative metabolism of alcohols. PQQ also exists in plants and animals. Due to its inherent chemical feature, namely its free-radical scavenging properties, PQQ has been drawing attention from both the nutritional and the pharmacological viewpoint.
