Biological Activity

Description MitoQ (Mitoquinone) mesylate is a TPP-based, mitochondria-targeted antioxidant that blocks H2O2-induced intracellular ROS responses and protects against oxidative damage. This product is a waxy solid.
Targets
mitochondria [1] ROS [1]
In vitro

Mitoquinone blocks H2O2-induced intracellular ROS responses inmurine pancreatic acinar cells. Mitoquinone does not reduce mitochondrial depolarisation induced by either cholecystokinin (CCK) or bile acid TLCS. Mitoquinone increases basal and CCK-induced cell death in a plate-reader assay.[1]

In vivo

In a TLCS-induced AP model Mitoquinone treatment is not protective. In AP induced by caerulein hyperstimulation (CER-AP), Mitoquinone exerts mixed effects. Thus, partial amelioration of histopathology scores is observed but without reduction of the biochemical markers pancreatic trypsin or serumamylase. Lungmyeloperoxidase and interleukin-6 are concurrently increased by Mitoquinone in CER-AP. Mitoquinone causes biphasic effects on ROS production in isolated polymorphonuclear leukocytes, inhibiting an acute increase but elevating later levels.[1]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[1]

  • Cell lines

    Pancreatic Acinar Cells

  • Concentrations

    1 μM, 10 μM

  • Incubation Time

    200 s, 400 s, 600 s, 800 s, 1000 s

  • Method

    The cells are loaded with 40 nM TMRM for 30 minutes prior incubation with either 1 μM or 10 μM of MitoQ or dTPP. Cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8, 10 nM) or bile acid taurolithocholic acid 3-sulphate (TLCS, 500 μM) is used to induce ΔΨm depolarisation. At the end of the perfusion, the protonophore carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP, 10 μM) is added to induce complete depolarisation of ΔΨm. The fluorescence of TMRM is excited at 543 nm and the emission is collected at 560–650 nm.

Animal Study:

[1]

  • Animal Models

    C57BL/6J mice

  • Dosages

    10 mg/kg, 25 mg/kg

  • Administration
