Description
-
Ubidecarenone (co-enzyme Q10) is a fat-soluble substance and acts as a vital intermediate of the electron transport system in the mitochondrial membrane for cellular respiration and ATP production. Cells and tissues are metabolically active (such as – heart, immune system, skeleton muscle and gingiva) have the highest requirement of Ubidecarenone and most susceptible to Ubidecarenone deficiency. Ubidecarenone level in the body decline with advancing age and thus contribute to manifestation of aging. In humans, the most common form is coenzyme Q10 or ubiquinone-10. Ubidecarenone, also called coenzyme Q10, is a 1,4-enzoquinone. From its name (Q10), the Q refers to the constitutive quinone group, and 10 is related to the number of isoprenyl subunits in its tail. 1. It is a powerful antioxidant, a lipid-soluble and essential cofactor in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
