Multiple retinol binding proteins in rabbit lung
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1974Summary Rabbit lungs contain components sedimenting on sucrose gradients with a sedimentation coefficient of 2S that bind retinol with high specificity. DEAE-cellulose chromatography following gel filtration reveals the presence of 3 binding components of 17,000, 15,000 and 14,000 daltons respectively, showing different fluorescence spectra.

Pityriasis rubra pilaris and retinol-binding protein
British Journal of Dermatology, 1981Serum levels of retinol-binding protein (the specific carrier of vitamin A) were measured in eleven patients with pityriasis rubra pilaris and in some of their close relatives. The level of retinol-binding protein was markedly reduced in every patient, and in some of the relatives. It is postulated that defective synthesis of retinol-binding protein is

Distribution of Retinol-Binding Prctein in Tissues
1975Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the distribution of retinol-binding protein (RBP) in tissues. Serial sections of pig and human liver tissue obtained shortly post mortem were fixed in ethanol and treated with unlabeled specific rabbit antiserum to human RBP. The pig RBP cross reacts to a considerable extent with human antiserum.

Study of retinol-binding protein in pancreatic cancer
Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 1984Serum RBP, prealbumin, and zinc were evaluated in normal subjects and patients with pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis. A significant decrease of RPB was found in pancreatic cancer patients compared with controls. A concomitant reduction of prealbumin and zinc was also observed.

Retinol-Binding Proteins in Human Testis Cytosol
The Journal of Nutrition, 1978In the cytosol fraction of human testes a specific binding protein for retinol has been isolated by sephadex column chromatography and by gradient centrifugation. The protein has a sedimentation coefficient of 2S, and its molecular weight is estimated by gel filtration to be approximately 16,000 daltons. Competitive binding studies with labeled retinol

Cellular retinol binding protein and breast carcinoma
European Journal of Cancer and Clinical Oncology, 1990Cellular retinol binding protein (C-RBP) levels were measured in 87 malignant and 18 non-malignant breast cancer tissues. C-RBP, sedimenting in the '2S' region on 5-20% sucrose density gradients, was detectable in 70% of malignant tissues examined. None of the non-malignant tissues contained detectable C-RBP.

[Prealbumin and retinol-binding protein].
Pathologie-biologie, 1986Thyroxin binding prealbumin (TBPA) and retinol binding protein (RBP) are associated in a complex responsible for the transport of vitamin A and of about 10% of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Both are synthetized in the liver. RBP can be characterized by two essential points: its hepatic secretion depending on the nutritional vitamin A status explains ...

CELL-SURFACE RECEPTORS FOR RETINOL-BINDING PROTEIN
Nutrition Reviews, 2009Target tissues for retinol have receptors to which retinol and retinol-binding protein complex (retinol-RBP) binds specifically. Following this binding, either the whole retinol-RBP is internalized into the cells of some tissues or only the retinol enters the cells in other tissues, with liberation of apo-RBP.
