PQQ(Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Disodium Salt) is an exciting new molecule that was first recognized in 1964 which helps improve mitochondria function, is found in healthy food and also interstellar dust particles (i.e. the stars).It’s also called methoxatin,which is a redox cofactor and antioxidant.
A human study that had 17 participants who had fatigue supplement with 20mg of PQQ for 8 weeks conducted with 20 mg of PQQ for 8 weeks showed improvements in sleep quality & duration.
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, which investigated the effects of PQQ on cognitive function in adults aged between 20 and 65 years. PQQ (20 mg per day) was administered for 12 weeks to the participants. After 12 weeks, the participants showed improvements in composite memory and verbal memory.

Source

Methoxatin/pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is mostly seen in plants, few bacteria and single cell eukaryotes, like yeast. It is mainly obtained from methylotrophic bacteria. PQQ may also present in the tissues of mammals.

Biochem/physiol Actions
|
In bacteria, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is used as a redox cycling cofactor. It acts as a cofactor (prosthetic group) for enzyme-catalyzed redox reactions of glucose and methanol dehydrogenase(s). PQQ is used in liposomes to establish a simple homogeneous assay for the detection of membrane permeabilization by antimicrobial peptides and synthetic copolymers. In bovine plasma amine oxidase, methoxatin may acts as the cofactor.
