Coenzyme Q10 is a crucial component of every cell's mitochondrial respiratory chain. As a result, it plays a crucial role in the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which serves as the energy source for the majority of biological functions. Within the Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, lysosomes, and plasma membranes, coenzyme Q10 reacts directly with free radicals or restores tocopherol and ascorbic acid from their oxidized states to produce antioxidant effects [1]. Since coenzyme Q10 is widely acknowledged as a vital ingredient that promotes human health, it is a well-liked dietary supplement. Because of its essential role in mitochondrial function and cellular bioenergetics, CoQ10 has been proposed as a therapeutic agent for a range of disorders affecting the cardiovascular system, degenerative neurological system, and neuromuscular system [2].

Dietary CoQ10 absorbs slowly and to a limited extent because of its hydrophobic nature and large molecular weight. Dissolved CoQ10 formulations exhibit superior bioavailability when it comes to dietary supplements. Tmax is roughly six hours, and elimination half-life is roughly thirty-three hours. In healthy individuals, the plasma coenzyme Q10 reference interval spans 0.40 to 1.91 mM. There is a rather significant relationship between the increase in plasma CoQ10 and the dose taken in the case of CoQ10 supplements. Research on animals shows that all organs, including the heart and brain mitochondria, absorb high quantities of CoQ10 [2]. CoQ10 treatment led to a substantial rise in CoQ10 concentrations in cerebral cortical mitochondria in 12-month-old rats. A transgenic mouse model of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis has a much longer lifespan when coenzyme Q10 is given orally, and it also significantly reduces the striatal damage caused by systemic treatment of 3-nitropropionic acid [3].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
