Discovery of a eukaryotic pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent oxidoreductase belonging to a new auxiliary activity family in the database of carbohydrate-active enzymes. [PDF]
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor utilized by a number of prokaryotic dehydrogenases. Not all prokaryotic organisms are capable of synthesizing PQQ, even though it plays important roles in the growth and development of many organisms ...

Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Is an Effective Senomorphic Agent to Target the Pro-Inflammatory Phenotype of Senescent Cells. [PDF]
As a natural senomorphic agent, PQQ targets the intracellular molecule. HSPA8 of senescent cells, resulting in significantly reduced expression of the SASP. PQQ holds prominent potential to delay chronological aging and ameliorate age‐related conditions by acting as an effective senomorphic agent.
