Structural and dynamical studies on human epidermal-type fatty acid binding protein using high-resolution NMR spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Human epidermal-type fatty acid binding protein (E-FABP) belongs to a family of intracellular non-enzymatic 14-15 kDa lipid binding proteins (LBP) that specifically bind and facilitate the transport of fatty acids, bile acids or retinoids.

Age‐Dependent Prognostic Significance of Preoperative Transthyretin After Curative Resection for Stage I–III Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preoperative malnutrition and systemic inflammation are established determinants of adverse outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). Transthyretin (TTR), a rapid‐turnover hepatic protein, reflects both nutritional and inflammatory status; however, its clinical utility may be influenced by age‐ and sex‐related variability.

Retinol-Binding Protein Interferes with Transthyretin-Mediated β‑Amyloid Aggregation Inhibition

open access: yes, 2018
β-Amyloid (Aβ) aggregation is causally linked to Alzheimer’s disease. On the basis of in vitro and transgenic animal studies, transthyretin (TTR) is hypothesized to provide neuroprotection against Aβ toxicity by binding to Aβ and inhibiting its ...

Evaluation of Retinol Binding Protein 4 Level in Iraqi Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Pre-diabetes Status as a Predictive Factor

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes has doubled in recent years due to a defect in insulin production, which can develop to form diabetes complications that affect the kidneys, nerves, and eyes.

Retinol-binding protein 4 versus albuminuria as predictors of estimated glomerular filtration rate decline in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2018
Background: Since the increase in some tubular damage biomarkers can be observed at the early stage of diabetic nephropathy, even in the absence of albuminuria, we aimed to investigate if urinary albumin is superior than tubular damage marker, such as ...

Altering retinol binding protein 4 levels in hepatitis C: Inflammation and steatosis matter

open access: yesVirulence, 2020
Both hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) might contribute to insulin resistance (IR), how RBP4 links to IR in HCV infection remain elusive.
