To investigate this, rat astrocytes were exposed to 200 nM atorvastatin or simvastatin for 6 days and then assessed for changes in coenzyme Q (CoQ) homeostasis, mitochondrial function, and energy metabolism. Both statins comparably decreased cellular CoQ9 and CoQ10 levels (~35%), with greater losses of their reduced antioxidant forms (60\u201375%). Lower intracellular and mitochondrial levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were accompanied by the upregulation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2)-dependent antioxidant pathways (superoxide dismutase 1 and glutathione reductase) and metabolic stress response factors, including hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1\u03b1) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Both statins promoted glycolytic reprogramming, mitochondrial fission, and biogenesis while impairing oxidative phosphorylation, as evidenced by reduced ATP-linked respiration, increased proton leak, and lower ATP levels. These findings suggest that statin-treated astrocytes adapt by prioritizing redox homeostasis over ATP production. CoQ10 supplementation increased cellular CoQ10 levels and restored ATP levels without further decreasing ROS, suggesting that its primary benefit is bioenergetic support, not additional antioxidant protection. Overall, statin-induced CoQ deficiency induces adaptive metabolic remodeling of astrocytes, while CoQ10 supplementation may help maintain energy metabolism under these conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/antiox15060725","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,8]],"date-time":"2026-06-08T07:43:02Z","timestamp":1780904582000},"page":"725","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Statin-Induced Coenzyme Q Deficiency Induces Metabolic Reprogramming in Astrocytes"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Krzysztof","family":"Wojcicki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mitochondrial Biochemistry, Department of Bioenergetics, Faculty of Biology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Poznanskiego 6, 61-614 Poznan, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lukasz","family":"Galganski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mitochondrial Biochemistry, Department of Bioenergetics, Faculty of Biology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Poznanskiego 6, 61-614 Poznan, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adrianna","family":"Budzinska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mitochondrial Biochemistry, Department of Bioenergetics, Faculty of Biology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Poznanskiego 6, 61-614 Poznan, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Grzegorz","family":"Figura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mitochondrial Biochemistry, Department of Bioenergetics, Faculty of Biology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Poznanskiego 6, 61-614 Poznan, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8550-8337","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wieslawa","family":"Jarmuszkiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mitochondrial Biochemistry, Department of Bioenergetics, Faculty of Biology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Poznanskiego 6, 61-614 Poznan, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"425","DOI":"10.1038\/343425a0","article-title":"Regulation of the mevalonate pathway","volume":"343","author":"Goldstein","year":"1990","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"700","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1079605","article-title":"Architecture of succinate dehydrogenase and reactive oxygen species generation","volume":"299","author":"Yankovskaya","year":"2003","journal-title":"Science"},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"575","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinbiochem.2007.03.016","article-title":"Mevalonate pathway: A review of clinical and therapeutical implications","volume":"40","author":"Buhaescu","year":"2007","journal-title":"Clin.
