The cardioprotective effect of ubiquinol on the model of myocardium reperfusion injury in rats was investigated. The study was carried out using mature males of outbred rats. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury was performed after 30-minute ligation of the left coronary artery followed by reperfusion. The main criteria for assessing the development of pathology included the results of electrocardiography, biochemical analysis of blood plasma, histological and histochemical study of the myocardium. Development of the reperfusion damage of the myocardium caused specific changes in non-treated animals. The best therapeutic effect on biochemical indices was provided by a drug with the known cardioprotective activity - Mexidolâ and the tested object ubiquinol at doses of 2-6 mg/kg. Evaluation of the results of electrocardiography allowed to confirm the development of ischemic myocardial damage in all groups. The results of histochemical and histological examination of the myocardium suggest a high cardioprotective activity of ubiquinol at a dose of 3 mg/kg and a potential cardioprotective effect of ubiquinol in doses closest to the therapeutic doses of 2 and 6 mg/kg. Ubiquinol is a dose 9 mg/kg showed signs of prooxidant activity, manifested in the form of aggravation of reperfusion injury of the myocardium. The most effective in the conditions of experimental pathology is 1% solution of ubiquinol, at a dose of 3 mg/kg, whose cardioprotective effect is comparable or higher than that for the reference drug Mexidolâ at the therapeutic dose. In doses that are greater than therapeutic ubiquinol is able to act as a pro-oxidant.

Introduction: In this research, we evaluate the effect of intravenously administrated solubilized ubiquinol on 4-week monocrotalin-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) in rats. Materials and methods: To reproduce the model, some male Wistar rats were subcutaneously injected with alcohol solution of monocrotaline 60 mg/kg and the rest – with alcohol solution (Control). Those with monocrotaline (MCT) were divided into 3 groups. They underwent intravenous administration of 1% ubiquinol solution 30 mg/kg (MCT-Ubiquinol), the vehicle (MCT-Vehicle) and saline (MCT-saline) three times on days 7, 14 and 21, depending on the group. The hemodynamic parameters were measured in anesthetized rats on day 29. Right ventricle hypertrophy, pulmonary arteries reactivity and expression of miRNA-21 and miRNA-34a were estimated after euthanasia. Results and discussion: All MCT-groups demonstrated an increase in right ventricle systolic pressure and hypertrophy in comparison with the control group. An increase in lung weight was shown in MCT-Vehicle and MCT-Saline; however, the MCT-Ubiquinol indicators did not differ from those of the Control. There was an increased vasodilatation response to acetylcholine at concentrations of 1*10-6M and 1*10-5M in MCT-Ubiquinol in contrast to the other two MCT-groups. A significantly lower level of expression of miRNA-34a was observed in MCT-Ubiquinol. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that a triple ubiquinol injection influences pulmonary changes and endothelium-depended vasodilatation, which contributes to pulmonary vascular tone and reactivity. A decrease in miRNA-34a expression in MCT-Ubiquinol group demonstrates the ubiquinol anti-inflammatory properties.
