Guest guest Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18021066?ordinalpos=12 & itool=EntrezSystem2.PE\ ntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum Studies on kinetics of free radical oxidation of rat liver membrane phospholipids have shown that ubiquinol Q(10) is the most active lipid-soluble natural antioxidant, and suppression of ubiquinol Q(10) biosynthesis by beta-hydroxy-beta-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins) is accompanied by intensification of lipid peroxidation in rat liver biomembranes and in LDL of human blood plasma. Injection of ubiquinone Q(10) protects the human blood plasma LDL against oxidation and prevents oxidative stress-induced damages to rat myocardium. A unified molecular mechanism of atherogenic action of carbonyl-modified LDL in disorders of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism is discussed.
