CoQ10 is an important factor in two main aspects of cell physiology: bioenergetics and antioxidant protection. While primary deficiency of CoQ10 is associated with severe and lethal disease, secondary deficiency can be associated with the progression of mitochondrial dysfunction linked to the lessening of biological activities during aging. The book is organized in four sections. The first offers an overview of the function of CoQ10, highlighting the two main functions of CoQ10 in cells: its essential role as electron transport chain member in mitochondria, and the protection of cell membranes against oxidation as one of the main endogenous-synthesized antioxidants. The second section covers research on Coenzyme 10. Topics include studies involving invertebrate models, mammal studies and the influence of CoQ on longevity. Also covered is research involving the role of CoQ in senescence-accelerated mice. Section three examines the effects of reduced CoQ in human aging, as evident in mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic syndrome, neurodegenerative disorders, immunosenescence and fertility and reproduction. The final section, Prolongevity effectors and Coenzyme Q, explores research into slowing or stopping the aging process. Coverage includes strategies including calorie restriction, and modulation of CoQ10 levels by induction of synthesis or by supplementation. Coenzyme Q in Aging benefits a broad readership of researchers, clinicians, educators and students interested in the biochemical and physiological effects of coenzyme Q and the importance of this molecule in aging process. 606 $aMedicine 606 $aCell biology 606 $aInternal medicine 606 $aBiochemistry 606 $aPhysiology 606 $aBiomedicine, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B0000X 606 $aCell Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16008 606 $aInternal Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33002 606 $aBiochemistry, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14005 606 $aPhysiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33000 606 $aEnvelliment$2thub 606 $aCoenzims$2thub 606 $aCitologia$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aMedicine. 615 0$aCell biology. 615 0$aInternal medicine. 615 0$aBiochemistry. 615 0$aPhysiology. 615 14$aBiomedicine, general. 615 24$aCell Biology. 615 24$aInternal Medicine. 615 24$aBiochemistry, general. 615 24$aPhysiology. 615 7$aEnvelliment 615 7$aCoenzims 615 7$aCitologia 676 $a615.35 702 $aLópez Lluch$b Guillermo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416102603321 996 $aCoenzyme Q in Aging$92522602 997 $aUNINA
