Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In previous study the investigators found that CoQ10 can improve cholesterol efflux from macrophages in cell model, ApoE mice model and small-scale of healthy volunteers. In addition, CoQ10 has strong antioxidant activity and is an essential factor of mitochondria electron transport chain. So the investigators hypothesize that CoQ10 may have some health promotion effect on dyslipidemia, risk factor of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases. On this purpose, the investigators are going to recruit 150 dyslipidemia patients to supply CoQ10+vitamin E or CoQ10 alone or placebo in different doses for 24 weeks to explore the effects of CoQ10 on cholesterol efflux and lipid profiles on dyslipidemia.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Dietary Supplement: coenzyme Q10 vitamin E softgel
  • Dietary Supplement: coenzyme Q10 softgel
  • Dietary Supplement: placebo softgel

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: combined group

each coenzyme Q10 vitamin E softgel contain CoQ 10 30mg + vitamin E 16mg; The subjects in this arm take 2 softgels after lunch and supper respectively per day. Total supplementation is 120mgCoQ10 and 64mg vitamin per day. The duration is 24 weeks.

Dietary Supplement: coenzyme Q10 vitamin E softgel
4 coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E softgels per day for 24 weeks. Keep normal lift style unchanged.

Experimental: CoQ10 group

each softgel contain CoQ 10 30mg; The subjects in this arm take 2 softgels after lunch and supper respectively per day. Total supplementation is 120mgCoQ10 per day. The duration is 24 weeks.

Dietary Supplement: coenzyme Q10 softgel
4 coenzyme Q10 softgels per day for 24 weeks. Keep normal lift style unchanged.

Other: placebo group

each softgel contain no vitamin E, no CoQ10; The subjects in this arm take 2 softgels after lunch and supper respectively per day. The duration is 24 weeks.

Dietary Supplement: placebo softgel
4 placebo softgels per day. Keep normal lift style unchanged.
