Clinical Trial Summary

Coenzyme Q10 (Ubiquinone) is recognized as an endogenous fat-soluble antioxidant in the mitochondrial membrane and considered as a preventive factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the relationships between coenzyme Q10 and the prevention of the risk of CAD are still inconsistent. The purposes of this study are to investigate the relation of coenzyme Q10 concentration with the blood lipid levels, plasma homocysteine, the markers of lipid peroxidation (TBARS, ox-LDL),antioxidant enzymes activities (catalase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase)and to examine the association with the risk of CAD.The CAD patients is identified by cardiac catheterization as having at least 50% stenosis of one major coronary artery (n = 100). The second year is a double-blind, placebo-controlled intervention study. CAD subjects (n = 60) are randomly assign to one of the three groups (coenzyme Q10 supplements 60 mg/d, 150 mg/d, and placebo groups, n = 20/group). Intervention is going to administration for three months. The third year is a case-control study. The control group (n = 100) is comprised of healthy individuals with normal blood biochemical values, and match by age and gender with the first year CAD subjects (case group). Fasting blood samples will be obtain to determine the concentration of coenzyme Q10, homocysteine, the markers of lipid peroxidation,antioxidant enzymes activities. The differences between case and control groups will be compared by using Student's t-test. Conditional logistical regression model will be performed to calculate the odds ratio for CAD based on coenzyme Q10 level. Hopefully, the results of this study could provide the information to what has been know in CAD subjects. We expect coenzyme Q10 could be a preventive supplement to reduce the risk of CAD.
