MedKoo Cat#: 577472 | Name: Mitoquinol mesylate

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Mitoquinol, also known as MitoQ, is a mitochondrially targeted antioxidant. Mitoquinol is a reduced form of mitoquinone. MitoQ replenished mitochondrial SOD, GPx and GSH indicating its strong antioxidant effect in addition to its energy preservation manifested by the elevated ATP. MitoQ inhibited the intrinsic apoptosis via diminution of Bax, cytochrome-c and caspase-3 and alleviation of Bcl-2. MitoQ modulates expression of Nrf2 and enhances activity of mitochondrial SDH in cirrhotic-HCC rats via its interaction with key amino acid residues in the active pocket of BTB and KELCH domains of KEAP1 as well as amino residues at the active site of SDH. MitoQ may have potential usage for the treatment/management of liver cirrhosis and HCC.
