Product Description
Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) is an orally bioavailable quinone compound obtained from Antrodia cinnamomea. Coenzyme Q0 causes apoptosis and autophagy and inhibits the HER-2/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway to enhance apoptosis and autophagy mechanisms. Coenzyme Q0 regulates the activation of NFκB/AP-1 and enhances the stability of Nrf2, reducing inflammation and redox imbalance. Coenzyme Q0 has anti-angiogenic activity through down-regulation of MMP-9/NF-κB and up-regulation of HO-1 signaling pathway.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Coenzyme Q0 (0–40 μM; 24 h) prevents the growth and viability of human ovaries [1]. Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) (0-30 μM; 24 h; SKOV-3 cells) inhibits cell division by lowering cell cycle regulatory proteins and inducing G2/M cell cycle induction [1]. Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) (0-30 μM; 0-30 minutes; SKOV-3 cells) raises intracellular ROS levels to encourage the death of SKOV-3 cells [1]; via increasing the accumulation of LC3-II, GFP-LC3 pigment, AVO formation, and Beclin-1/Bcl-2 repair, Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) (0-30 μM; 24 hours; SKOV-3 cells) induces self-repair. Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) (0-30 μM; 24 hours; SKOV-3 cells) inhibits HER-2/AKT/mTOR signaling to improve cytochrome and autophagy mechanisms. Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) signals through mitochondria (caspase-3, PARP, and Bax/Bcl-2 corrector) and ER intermediates (caspase-12 and Hsp70) [1]. Q0 (CoQ0) (0-10 μM; 0.5-18 hours; RAW264.7 cells) improves Nrf2 stability and controls NFκB/AP-1 activation [2]. 5 μM Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0); 0–12 hours;
ln Vivo
In SKOV-3 xenografted nude mice, intraperitoneal administration of Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) at 1.5 and 2.5 mg/kg every four days for 52 days inhibits the growth of tumors [1]. Through Nrf2 activation and NFκB inhibition, Coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0) (5 mg/kg; lateral wall; duration: 4 hours) has anti-inflammatory activity in the liver and the liver of mice treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) [2].

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 16.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (9.17 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 16.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
