Coenzyme Q10 supplementation improves acute outcomes of stroke in rats pretreated with atorvastatin.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10, ubiquinone) stands among the safest supplements in the elderly to protect against cardiovascular disorders. Noteworthy, CoQ10 deficiency is common in many surviving stroke patients as they are mostly prescribed statins for the secondary prevention of stroke incidence lifelong. Accordingly, the current study aims to experimentally examine whether CoQ10 supplementation in animals receiving atorvastatin may affect acute stroke-induced injury. METHODS:Adult rats underwent transient middle cerebral artery occlusion after atorvastatin pretreatment (5 or 10 mg/ kg/day; po; 30 days) with or without CoQ10 (200 mg/kg/day). After 24 hours ischemic/reperfusion injury, animals were subjected to functional assessments followed by cerebral molecular and histological to detect inflammation, apoptosis and oxidative stress. RESULTS:Animals dosed with 10 mg/kg presented the worst neurological function and brain damage in the acute phase of stroke injury. CoQ10 supplementation efficiently improved functional deficit and cerebral infarction in all stroke animals, particularly those exhibiting statin toxicity. Such benefits were associated with remarkable anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects, based on the analyzed tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, Bax/Bcl2 and cleaved caspase 3/9 immunoblots. Importantly, our fluoro-jade staining data indicated CoQ10 may revert the stroke-induced neurodegeneration. No parallel alteration was detected in stroke-induced oxidative stress as determined by malondialdehyde and 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine levels. DISCUSSION:These data suggest that all stroke animals may benefit from CoQ10 administration through modulating inflammatory and degenerative pathways. This study provides empirical evidence for potential advantages of CoQ10 supplementation in atorvastatin-receiving patients which may not shadow its antioxidant properties.
