The scientific name of the PQQ pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) pyrroloquinoline quinone is a new prosthetic group, is the second flavin nucleotides (FMN, FAD) and nicotinamide nucleotide (MAD NADP) in the membrane boundfound in the bacterial dehydrogenase third cofactor, the world's medical profession called fourteenth vitamins. The compound was first isolated from bacteria out, and then moving the plants have also been found, its chemical name is 4,5 - dihydro-4 ,5 - dioxide -1 - pyrrolo (2,3 f) The quinone -2,7,9-tricarboxylic acid, also known as methaxatin.
Application&Function
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (henceforth pqq) is a small quinone molecule which has the ability to be a redox agent, capable of reducing oxidants (an antioxidant effect) and then being recycled by glutathione back into an active form. It appears to be quite stable as it can undergo several thousand cycles before being used up, and it is novel since it associates with protein structures inside the cell (some antioxidants, mostly notably carotenoids like β-carotene and Astaxanthin, are located at specific areas of a cell where they exert proportionally more antioxidant effects due to proximity; PQQ seems to do this near proteins like carotenoids do so at the cell membrane).
PQQ is present in nanomolar quantities in most foods and in most animal tissuse. It promotes growth, mitochondrial function, and development in vivo and stimulates cell proliferation and viability in culture. It is a potent antioxidant that scavenges superoxide and peroxinitrite. It is neuroprotectant against 6-hydroxydopamine-induced and hypoxia/ischemia-induced neurotoxicity. PQQ conjugates to α-synuclein in vitro, inhibiting the formation of amyloid fibrils.
