A slab gel electrophoresis technique for measurement of plasma retinol-binding protein, cellular retinol-binding and retinoic-acid-binding proteins in human skin [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1987 At least four different proteins that bind retinoids could be present in a vitamin A target tissue like the skin. In order to separate cellular retinoid-binding proteins (CRBP and CRABP) from serum retinol-binding protein (RBP) and albumin, a one-step procedure was devised. The technique is based on slab polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) of the

Regulating Retinoic Acid Availability during Development and Regeneration: The Role of the CYP26 Enzymes. [PDF]
, 2020 This review focuses on the role of the Cytochrome p450 subfamily 26 (CYP26) retinoic acid (RA) degrading enzymes during development and regeneration. Cyp26 enzymes, along with retinoic acid synthesising enzymes, are absolutely required for RA homeostasis

Acute and chronic blood serum proteome changes in patients with methanol poisoning
Scientific Reports, 2022 Twenty-four blood serum samples from patients with acute methanol poisoning (M) from the mass methanol poisoning outbreak in the Czech Republic in 2012 were compared with 46 patient samples taken four years after poisoning (S) (overlap of 10 people with ...

Tissue distribution of the receptor for plasma retinol-binding protein [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1995 The tissue distribution of the retinol-binding-protein receptor has been studied by using a cell-free binding assay. High binding activity was found in placenta, retina pigment epithelial cells, bone marrow and kidneys. Specific binding activity was also found in the small intestines, spleen and liver, and to a lesser extent in lung. Scatchard analysis

Cerebrospinal fluid proteome shows disrupted neuronal development in multiple sclerosis
Scientific Reports, 2021 Despite intensive research, the aetiology of multiple sclerosis (MS) remains unknown. Cerebrospinal fluid proteomics has the potential to reveal mechanisms of MS pathogenesis, but analyses must account for disease heterogeneity.
