Maternal plasma retinol binding protein 4 in acute pyelonephritis during pregnancy.
OBJECTIVE Adipokines have been implicated in metabolic regulation and the immune response thus providing a molecular mechanism for the interaction between these two systems. Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a novel adipokine that plays a role in the pathophysiology of obesity-induced insulin resistance, as well as in the modulation of inflammation. The aim of this study was to determine whet...
متن کاملThe Effect of 8 Weeks Interval Exercises and Vitamin D Supplementation on Plasma Levels of Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and Retinol Binding Protein 4 in Overweight Women
Abstract Over weight is one of the most important public health concerns and the most common fat metabolism disorder in humans the purpose of this study was to compare the effect of eight weeks of interval training and vitamin D intake on DPP4 and RBP4 plasma levels of overweight with mean age of 39.92±4.15 , height 159.25±3.8 cm weight 72.73 kg /m2 in this study , 40 subjects were selected pur...
متن کاملRetinol-Binding Protein 4 in Twins
OBJECTIVE Retinol-binding protein (RBP) 4 is an adipokine of which plasma levels are elevated in obesity and type 2 diabetes. The aims of the study were to identify determinants of plasma RBP4 and RBP4 mRNA expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and skeletal muscle and to investigate the association between RBP4 and in vivo measures of glucose metabolism. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS ...
متن کاملRetinol-binding protein 4 in human obesity.
Studies in mice suggest that adipocytes serve as glucose sensors and regulate systemic glucose metabolism through release of serum retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4). This model has not been validated in humans. RBP4 was highly expressed in isolated mature human adipocytes and secreted by differentiating human adipocytes. In contrast to the animal data, RBP4 mRNA was downregulated in subcutaneous...
متن کاملRadioimmunoassay of human plasma retinol-binding protein.
A radioimmunoassay for human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP) has been developed utilizing a double antibody precipitation technique. RBP was purified 1500- to 2000-fold by procedures described previously. A specific anti-human RBP antiserum was prepared in rabbits by three once-weekly injections of purified RBP emulsified with Freund's adjuvant. RBP was iodinated with (131)I and the RBP-(1...
