Abstract:
Endogenous coenzyme Q10 is an essential cofactor in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, a potent antioxidant, and a potential biomarker for systemic oxidative status. Evidence of oxidative stress was reported in individuals with trisomy 21. In this study, 14 children with trisomy 21 had significantly increased (P<0.0001) plasma ubiquinone-10 (the oxidized component of coenzyme Q10) compared with 12 age- and sex-matched healthy children (historical controls). Also, the mean ratio of ubiquinol-10 (the biochemically reduced component):total coenzyme Q10 was significantly decreased (P<0.0001). After 3 months of ubiquinol-10 supplementation (10 mg/kg/day) to 10 patients with trisomy 21, the mean ubiquinol-10:total coenzyme Q10 ratio increased significantly (P<0.0001) above baseline values, and 80% of individual ratios were within normal range. No significant or unexpected adverse effects were reported by participants. To our knowledge, this is the first study to indicate that the pro-oxidant state in plasma of children with trisomy 21, as assessed by ubiquinol-10:total coenzyme Q10 ratio, may be normalized with ubiquinol-10 supplementation. Further studies are needed to determine whether correction of this oxidant imbalance improves clinical outcomes of children with trisomy 21.

Abstract:
Studies about Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10 ) supplementation on strenuous exercise are scarce, especially those related with oxidative stress associated with physical activity and virtually nonexistent with the reduced form, Ubiquinol. The objective of this study was to determine, for the first time, whether a short-term supplementation with Ubiquinol can prevent oxidative stress associated to strenuous exercise. The participants (n = 100 healthy and well trained, but not on an elite level) were classified in two groups: Ubiquinol (experimental group), and placebo group (control). The protocol consisted of conducting two identical strenuous exercise tests with a rest period between tests of 24 h. Blood and urine samples were collected from the participants before supplementation (basal value) (T1), after supplementation (2 weeks) (T2), after first physical exercise test (T3), after 24 h of rest (T4), and after second physical exercise test (T5).The increase observed in the lactate, isoprostanes, DNA damage, and hydroperoxide levels reveals the severity of the oxidative damage induced by the exercise. There was a reduction in the isoprostanes, 8-OHdG, oxidized LDL, and hydroperoxydes in the supplemented Ubiquinol group, an increase in total antioxidant status, fat soluble antioxidant (both plasma and membrane),and CAT activity. Also, NO in the Ubiquinol-supplemented group was maintained within a narrow range. Oxidative stress induced by strenuous exercise is accumulative and increases transiently in subsequent sessions of physical activity. A short-term supplementation (2 weeks) with Ubiquinol (200 mg/day) before strenuous exercise, decreases oxidative stress and increases plasma NO, fact that could improve endothelial function, energetic substrate supply, and muscle recovery after strenuous exercise. © 2016 BioFactors, 2016.

The comparison of acquired peer-social behaviour patterns together with plasma ubiquinol.. From: Peer attachment formation by systemic redox regulation with social training after a sensitive period. The behaviour features of various conditions were compared by PCA including serum ubiquinol level. (a) The factor loading vectors of the behaviours of three stages of development. (b) The behaviour data of each condition was compared using the variance ellipses based on PCA of behaviour data and plasma ubiquinol at P21 (blue vector). The distribution of Group F data was significantly different from that of condition A–D and shifted to positive affection (j-call parameter) according to Wilks' lambda analysis (asterisk). (c) Ubiquinol concentration in blood plasma. The significant difference of plasma ubiquinol was observed under two conditions, ubiquinol at high (1200 mg/kg weight·day)with feeding inside of the cage and low (200 mg/kg weight·day) with feeding out (F) by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc tests in C (*) and F (double cross).

A synergistic effect on social attachment formation with mutual interaction and orthomolecular supplementation of ubiquinol.. From: Peer attachment formation by systemic redox regulation with social training after a sensitive period. Attachment formation with MI and ubiquinol. Developmental trajectory was visualised by PCA in 3D time space as the stack of 2D planes at three stages: P13, P16, and P21. The trajectories of each experimental group were colour-coded (Iso in red, Grp in blue, and ubiquinol in black). Ubiquinol was ingested at 0 (vehicle, A, E), 200 (B, D, F), or 1200 (C) [mg/kg weight·day] within the cage (in: A–D) or outside (out: E, F). The behaviour similarity of ubiquinol group with Grp was evaluated by a G ratio based on the Mahalanobis distance (significance was marked with blue bar). Three female and 3 male subjects were used for each condition A–F. Two feeding conditions were set: condition in, within the cage (A–D), or condition out, taking food through a window of the cage (E, F). Mamiko Koshiba, et al. Sci Rep. 2013;3:2503
