Mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) inhibitor.
Ubiquinone analog.

Application


  • Lysosomal Ca(2+) as a mediator of palmitate-induced lipotoxicity.: This study explores the role of decylubiquinone in modulating lysosomal Ca(2+) levels, providing insights into mechanisms of lipotoxicity and potential therapeutic applications in metabolic diseases (Oh et al., 2023).

  • Quinone binding site in a type VI sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase.: This paper investigates the binding dynamics of decylubiquinone in sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase, shedding light on its role in microbial respiration and potential biotechnological applications (Miklovics et al., 2022).

  • Protective role of Decylubiquinone against secondary melanoma at lung in B16F10 induced mice.: The study demonstrates the anti-metastatic properties of decylubiquinone in a melanoma mouse model, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent in cancer treatment (Chatterjee et al., 2023).

  • Decylubiquinone Inhibits Colorectal Cancer Growth Through Upregulating Sirtuin2.: This research identifies decylubiquinone as an inhibitor of colorectal cancer growth by modulating Sirtuin2 expression, suggesting its application in cancer therapeutics (Li et al., 2021).

Friedreich Ataxia (FRDA), the most common inherited ataxia, arises from defective expression of the mitochondrial protein frataxin, which leads to increased mitochondrial oxidative damage. Therefore, antioxidants targeted to mitochondria should be particularly effective at slowing disease progression. To test this
