RESUMO
Currently, several options are available for the prevention and treatment of cancers; however, many limitations remain with these approaches. Recently, antioxidants have become important preventive and therapeutic alternatives with few adverse events and minimum cost. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a naturally occurring component that performs an anticancer function by reducing oxidative stress. CoQ10 supplementation as an adjuvant therapy offers more progress in the elimination and development of cancers. This review aimed to critically assess and summarize the implication of CoQ10 in cancers, highlighting possible mechanisms, and future directions of research for the standardization of the current regimen for cancer prevention and treatment.
