Cancer > Ubiquinone
The following information is about Ubiquinone.
Ubiquinone Defined
A substance found in most tissues in the body, and in many foods. It can also be made in the laboratory. It is used by the body to produce energy for cells, and as an antioxidant. It is being studied in the treatment of cancer and in the relief of side effects caused by some cancer treatments. Also called coenzyme Q10, Q10, CoQ10, and vitamin Q10.
This definition is in context to Cancer. See more contextual defintions for Ubiquinone.

- In Vitro - Complex I - NADH: Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase - Specific Binding Sites of Pesticides - University of California, Berkeley, California US - 1995: Fenazaquin [4-(4-tert-but ylphenethoxy)q uinazoline] is one of several acaricides and insecticides, including rotenone and pyridaben, that are reported to act by inhibiting NADH:ubiquinon e oxidoreductase (Complex I) (EC 1.6.99.3) in the range 1?10 nM. [3H]Fenazaquin is used here at 0.8 nMas a radioligand with electron transport particles (ETP) of bovine heart mitochondria to develop a new and rapid filtration assay with 42% specific binding (displaced by 2 ?Mrotenone). The potency of rotenoids, quinazolines, pyridaben, acetogenins, and several other disrupters of electron transport as inhibitors of NADH:ubiquinon e oxidoreductase activity generally correlates with their effectiveness in displacing [3H]fenazaquin from its binding site in ETP (r2= 0.96,n= 18). This correlation extends to the fenazaquin analog with (trifluorometh yl)-diazirinyl replacing thetert-butyl substituent assayed at 6 nM,indicating that it also acts at a high-affinity site in Complex I.

- Causes of Parkinson's: This resource does not offer much detail but lists a few general ideas on the causes of PD on a biological level.
- Parkinson's-a mutated gene: This resource does not go into much detail about studies and explaining the meaning of its significance. However, it proposes the idea that PD may be a genetically inherited disease or caused by a mutation in a specific gene.

- Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University --- CoQ10: good academic and research round-up, including re supplementatio n & athletics: note the athletics studies suggest little aerobic benefit, but a slight improvement in workload note also that endurance athletes typically have low CoQ10 levels
- Statins Inhibit Coenzyme Q10 Synthesis.: some good tables of food-amounts, plus a great summary of whole-populati on tendencies
- Statins Inhibit Squalene Synthesis [90% of which wd otherwise be used as antioxidant]: Yet squalene is much more than a precursor to cholesterol. In fact, only 10% of synthesized squalene is used for cholesterol synthesis. The other 90% is stored or used as an antioxidant.
- The Synthesis of Cholesterol : 3rd of 3 key end-products, #1 is CoQ10 -- statins cut all 3 off from the start!!: eek! avoid statins AT ALL COSTS!
