  • to treat mutant myocilin (mMYOC) cells for drug treatment assay
  • to validate C2C12 secondary cell screening assay
  • to treat obese mice, to test whether idebenone and CoQ10 bind directly to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)LBDs, His-tagged PPARα, δ and γ LBDs

Biochem/physiol Actions

A short-chain Coenzyme Q analog that enhances superoxide formation, presumably by mediating electron transfer from N2 to oxygen.
