Both CoQ9 and CoQ10 are equally cardioprotective, as evidenced by their abilities to improve left ventricular performance and to reduce myocardial infarct size and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. HPLC analysis reveals that a substantial portion of CoQ9 has been converted into CoQ10. CoQ10 and CoQ9 are components of themitochondrial respiratory chain in mammals and can regulate some mitochondrial proteins/functions. Soybean, corn, and rapeseed oils are very rich sources of CoQ10, whereas CoQ9 has been found in high concentrations in corn oil.The lack of a functional CoQ9 protein in homozygous CoQ9 mutant (CoQ9(X/X)) mice causes a severe reduction in the CoQ7 protein and a widespread CoQ deficiency and accumulation of demethoxyubiquinone. The deficit in CoQ induces a brain-specific impairment of mitochondrial bioenergetics performance, a reduction in respiratory control ratio, ATP levels and ATP/ADP ratio and specific loss of respiratory complex I. These effects lead to neuronal death and demyelinization with severe vacuolization and astrogliosis in the brain of CoQ9 (X/X) mice that consequently die between 3 and 6 months of age.
