In Vitro
Ubiquinone-1 (60 µM) induces external deamino-NADH oxidation in potato tuber mitochondria by altering the specificity of an external Rotenone (HY-B1756)-insensitive NADH dehydrogenase[1].
Ubiquinone-1 (100 µM) is rapidly and efficiently reduced to extracellularly detectable ubiquinol-1 by whole blood, isolated erythrocytes, and human hepatoma HepG2 cells[3].
Ubiquinone-1 (150 µM) is reduced by NADPH oxidase of guinea pig macrophages under anaerobic conditions[4].
Ubiquinone-1 is reduced by Ascorbic acid (HY-B0166) in a molecular oxygen concentration-controlled process[5].

Liver Cancer Modeling
Liver cancer can be classified into primary liver cancer and secondary liver cancer. Secondary liver cancer is the metastatic liver cancer. Primary liver cancer includes hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and fibrolamellar HCC, of which HCC is the most common form, accounting for approximately 90% of primary liver cancers[1]. HCC mouse models include chemical agent-induced models, transplanted tumor models, and genetic engineered models.
