Product Information
| Description: | Idebenone, a mitochondrial protector, has neuroprotective properties and can be used to study Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and can cross the blood-brain barrier. Idebenone (oxidized form) inhibited arachidonic acid enzyme metabolism in astrocyte homogenates (IC50=16.65 μM). Idebenone is a coenzyme Q10 analogue and antioxidant that induces apoptosis (apoptotic) in human dopaminergic neuroblastoma SHSY-5Y cells. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
