Ubiquinone-1 is an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of coenzyme Q[1]. Ubiquinone-1 is mainly reduced to ubiquinol by the action of complex I and II in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, acting as an electron carrier in the inner mitochondrial membrane to mediate electron transfer within the aerobic respiratory chain, promote oxidative phosphorylation and generate ATP and energy for cells[2]. Ubiquinone-1 also plays a role in antioxidant defense by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reducing oxidative stress damage[3]. Ubiquinone-1 is usually used in research on energy metabolism and neurological diseases, immune system diseases[4][5].
In vitro, treatment of rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC) cultured in low glucose medium with Ubiquinone-1 (10µM; 6h) prevented ATP depletion, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and increased monolayer permeability caused by the complex I inhibitor rotenone[6]. Treatment of primary rat astrocyte cultures with Ubiquinone-1 (5µM; 30min) significantly inhibited the recycling of ascorbate from dehydroascorbic acid (DHAA) in a dose-dependent manner under glucose-free conditions[7].

Ubiquinone-1是辅酶Q合成过程中的中间体[1]。Ubiquinone-1主要通过细胞呼吸链中的复合体I和II的作用被还原为Ubiquinol,在线粒体内膜中作为电子载体,介导有氧呼吸链内的电子传递,促进氧化磷酸化,生成ATP,为细胞提供能量[2]。Ubiquinone-1还通过清除活性氧(ROS)和减少氧化应激损伤在抗氧化防御中发挥作用[3]。Ubiquinone-1通常用于能量代谢以及神经系统疾病、免疫系统疾病的研究[4][5]。
在体外实验中,用Ubiquinone-1(10µM;6小时)处理低葡萄糖培养基中的大鼠肺微血管内皮细胞(PMVEC),可阻止由复合体I抑制剂鱼藤酮引起的ATP耗竭、线粒体膜电位去极化以及单层通透性增加[6]。在无葡萄糖条件下,用Ubiquinone-1(5µM;30分钟)处理原代大鼠星形胶质细胞培养物,以剂量依赖的方式显著抑制脱氢抗坏血酸(DHAA)到抗坏血酸的再循环[7]。

Preparation Method | Rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC) were grown in DMEM containing 10% FCS, 100U/ml penicillin, 100μg/ml streptomycin, and 30mg/ml L-glutamine on either 6-well gelatin-coated (2% w/w) plastic cell culture dishes, on gelatin-coated (2% vol/wt) Biosilon (polystyrene) microcarrier beads (230mm mean diameter; 160cm2/ml beads) or on commercially available collagen-coated transwell inserts. Confluent monolayers of PMVEC in individual wells of 6-well culture dishes (for ATP measurements), or on microcarrier beads (for Δψm or O2 consumption measurements) were washed free of culture medium three times in Hanks balanced salt solution containing 10mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid, pH 7.4, warmed to 37℃ (HBSS/Hepes). The HBSS/Hepes contained 0.2mM glucose plus 5.3mM mannitol (low glucose). Experimental treatments were administered in the HBSS/Hepes at 37℃ over a 6h time course. The concentrations of each substance, used either alone or in combination, were rotenone (0.5μM), Ubiquinone-1 (10μM). PMVEC ATP levels were measured using the ATPlite kit. Mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) measurements were made using TMRE as the Δψm sensitive dye. |
