The Ubiquinone-Ubiquinol Redox Cycle and Its Clinical Consequences: An Overview [PDF]
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) plays a key role in many aspects of cellular metabolism. For CoQ10 to function normally, continual interconversion between its oxidised (ubiquinone) and reduced (ubiquinol) forms is required.

Ubiquinone Protects Cultured Neurons against Spontaneous and Excitotoxin-Induced Degeneration
Ubiquinone is an endogenous quinone with pharmacological actions mainly related to its antioxidant properties. Here we report that ubiquinone protects cultured cerebellar granule cells against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity.

Half-life of ubiquinone-9 in rat tissues
The half-life of ubiquinone-9 in various rat tissues was determined. Rats were injected intraperitoneally with [3H]mevalonate and the decay of radioactivity incorporated into ubiquinone-9 was followed using reverse-phase HPLC.
