Regulation of retinol‐binding protein 4 and retinol metabolism in fatty liver disease
Vitamin A refers to a spectrum of retinoid compounds (retinol, retinoic acid, and retinaldehyde) with important functions in different tissues, including the retina and skin. Retinoids regulate metabolic pathways through binding to two nuclear hormone receptors: retinoic acid receptor and retinoid X receptor. In humans, approximately 80% of the body reservoir of vitamin A is stored in the liver...

Prealbumin-retinol-binding-protein-retinol complex in hemodialysis patients.
In hemodialysis (HD) patients, serum prealbumin (TBPA) is correlated to nutritional status and outcome despite usually elevated serum levels. The purpose of this work was to study the role of TBPA-retinol-binding-protein (RBP)-retinol complex changes in the elevation of serum TBPA in HD patients. Serum TBPA, RBP, and retinol were measured in 30 otherwise healthy HD patients (15 men, 15 women) a...
متن کاملRegulation by FSH of the dynamic expression of retinol-binding protein 4 in the mouse ovary
BACKGROUND Ovarian retinoid homeostasis plays an important role in the physiological function of the ovary. Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) acts as the mediator for the systemic and intercellular transport of retinol and is heavily involved in cellular retinol influx, efflux, and exchange. However, the expression patterns and regulatory mechanisms of Rbp4 in the ovary remain unclear. METHODS...
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 ...
