Sumario:Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a redox lipid essential for aerobic respiration and antioxidant protection. It is synthesized in each cell by a multiprotein complex inside mitochondria and incorporated in all cellular membranes. It is however an amazing molecule whose homeostasis not only depends on the proper function of biosynthesis complex but also on age, diet and the wholeness of mitochondria functions.
