Coenzyme Q10 (Item No. 11506) is a component of the electron transport chain and participates in aerobic cellular respiration, generating energy in the form of ATP.{20670} In its reduced form, it acts as an antioxidant.{20670} Coenzyme Q2 (CoQ2) is a biosynthetic precursor to the electron transport chain cofactor CoQ10 (Item No. 11506) and an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I, also known as NADH dehydrogenase.{30591,24936} It is an electron acceptor that accepts electrons from mitochondrial complex I. CoQ2 inhibits the proliferation of BALL-1 human B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells (IC50 = 20 µM) and induces apoptosis in Huh7 and HepG2 hepatoma cells when used at a concentration of 100 µM.{30186} It increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in BALL-1 cells but inhibits ROS production in mitochondrial membranes derived from bovine heart when used in combination with the mitochondrial complex I inhibitors rotenone (Item No. 13995), piericidin A (Item No. 15379), or rolliniastatin 1 or -2.{30186,24936} CoQ2 increases the production of hydrogen peroxide in isolated rabbit heart mitochondria and decreases it in isolated rabbit liver mitochondria.{66215}
