This study evaluated the bioenergetic role of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in essential hypertension by measuring the specific activities of succinate dehydrogenase-CoQ10 reductase in 65 healthy Japanese adults and 59 hypertensive patients. Results showed significantly lower enzyme activity (p < 0.001) and higher deficiency in the hypertensive group compared to controls.
