Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - General Subjects, 1979 The mechanism underlying homeostatic regulation of the plasma levels of free retinol-binding protein and free thyroxine, the systemic distribution of which is of great importance, has been investigated. A simple method has been developed to determine the

PLASMA RETINOL‐BINDING PROTEIN*
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1980Vitamin A is mobilized from liver stores and transported in plasma in the form of the lipid alcohol retinol, bound to a specific transport protein, retinol-binding protein (RBP). A great deal is known about the chemical structure, metabolism, and biological roles of RBP. RBP is a single polypeptide chain with molecular weight close to 20,000.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1972
Abstract Fluorescence excitation and emission spectra were recorded for human plasma retinol-binding protein and for the complex of retinol-binding protein and prealbumin. The spectra were compared with the fluorescence spectra of retinol in solution in seven different organic solvents.

Retinol‐Binding Protein and Prealbumin
Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 1986SummaryPlasma prealbumin (PA) and retinol‐binding protein (RBP) concentrations were serially measured in 25 critically ill, malnourished infants requiring parenteral nutrition to determine if these visceral protein markers are useful in assessing acute protein repletion. Significant increases in both proteins (p > 0.05) were noted as early as 5 to 7

Identification and quantitation of intracellular retinol and retinoic acid binding proteins in cultured cells [PDF]
Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Cell Research, 1984 Although the mechanism whereby vitamin A mediates normal cell differentiation and inhibits tumor cell proliferation is unknown, intracellular receptor-like proteins for retinol and retinoic acid have been implicated in the molecular action of vitamin A ...

The transthyretin-retinol-binding protein complex
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure and Molecular Enzymology, 2000Transthyretin (TTR, formerly called prealbumin), one of the transporters of the hormone thyroxine and the lipocalin retinol-binding protein (RBP), the specific carrier of the vitamin, are known to form, under physiological conditions, a macromolecular complex that is believed to play an important physiological role: prevention of glomerular filtration ...

Scandinavian journal of clinical and laboratory investigation. Supplementum, 1981
Vitamin A is transported from its storage site in the liver to the epithelial tissues by a carrier protein, the Retinol-binding protein (RBP). In plasma RBP forms a complex with thyroxine-binding prealbumin. The present article reviews available data on the RBP system. The complete primary structure of RBP has been determined.

Retinol binding protein is a single chain polypeptide of 21 000 Da without associated carbohydrate. It is the sole transport protein for vitamin A, and exists in the serum as an equimolar complex with prealbumin (trans-thyretin). Free retinol binding protein is rapidly excreted by the kidney, the function of the prealbumin-RBP complex appearing to be a

Characterization of retinol-binding protein in familial hypo-retinol-binding proteinemia.
Japanese journal of ophthalmology, 1989We reported previously familial hypo-retinol-binding proteinemia in a child who developed keratomalacia during measles infection. In the present study, we characterized serum retinol-binding proteins (RBPs) in the affected family members and compared these RBPs with those in the unaffected family members. Immunoblotting following SDS-polyacrylamide gel

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.
