Brief Summary   Liposomal CoQ-10 is basically CoQ-10 in a liposome. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ-10), ubiquinone, is an endogenous lipophilic benzoquinone compound which acts as an electron transport in the respiratory chain of the mammalian mitochondrial membrane. Over the last few years, CoQ-10 gained significant research attention as a dietary supplement used for generating cellular bioenergy and preventing tissue damage caused by oxidative stress. 1 However, only a very small percentage of orally administered crystalline CoQ-10 is taken up in the blood stream, making the treatment of CoQ10 deficiencies difficult. Due to the hydrophobic nature of CoQ-10, the use of a liposomal carrier for the delivery might be possible. Since CoQ-10 is largely located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, a mitochondrial-targeted delivery system will be needed.
