Abstract
Coenzyme Q10 (ubidecarenone) is a torpeniod molecule mainly located in bacterial and mitochondrial membranes. It is a part of a specific enzyme system and acts primarily on the transport of electrons in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. It performs an antioxidant action. We studied both fetal and maternal coenzyme Q10 plasma levels in physiological conditions and also in the presence of some pathologies.
