Is High-Dose Ubiquinone Therapy Before Cardiac Surgery Enough to Reduce the Incidence of Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury? A Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]
Cardiac surgery-related acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) is a decrease in kidney function after open-heart surgery, affecting up to 50% of patients. The pathophysiology of CS-AKI involves ischemia–reperfusion injury, inflammation, and oxidative stress ...

The ubiquinone content of animal tissues. A survey of the occurrence of ubiquinone in vertebrates [PDF]
1. A method was developed for the analysis of ubiquinone in animal tissues and the recovery of added ubiquinone tested in liver of the rat, Crocodylus porosus and Squalus acanthias. 2. The ubiquinone content of heart, liver and gut (or breast muscle in birds) was measured in 67 different animal species, selected to be representative of all the ...

Ubiquinone and Tocopherol in Birds [PDF]
UNLIKE the rat and the rabbit, it seems from nutritional studies made by several groups of workers that the chicken needs little vitamin E, providing its diet contains an adequate supply of selenium and only limited amounts of unsaturated fat1–3. Since tissue-levels of ubiquinone in the rat4 and rabbit5 are high compared with those given for some other

Ubiquinone electrochemistry in analysis and sensing [PDF]
Ubiquinone (UQ) is a lipophilic compound present in most living organisms, where UQ's interesting but complex electrochemistry serves an important role in the transfer of electrons and protons within and across the mitochondrial membrane.

Abstract The total biosynthesis of ubiquinone-9 from p-hydroxy[U-14C]benzoate has been demonstrated in mitochondria isolated from rat liver slices preincubated with mevalonic acid. Two partial reactions were also demonstrated. These were the conversion of p-hydroxybenzoate to 5-demethoxyubiquinone-9 and sequentially, the conversion of 5 ...

The NADH-ubiquinone reductase and succinate dehydrogenase activity in the rat kidney mitochondria under the conditions of different protein and sucrose content in the diet [PDF]
The NADH-ubiquinone reductase (EC 7.1.1.2) and succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.5.1) activity, the levels of total ubiquinone and its redox forms, and the degree of oxidative modification of mitochondrial proteins in the rat kidney were investigated.

Ubiquinone analogs: a mitochondrial permeability transition pore-dependent pathway to selective cell death. [PDF]
Prolonged opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (PTP) leads to cell death. Various ubiquinone analogs have been shown to regulate PTP opening but the outcome of PTP regulation by ubiquinone analogs on cell fate has not been studied ...
