Retinol binding protein in rat testicular cells [PDF]

Reproduction, 1981
Summary. Cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) was identified in the cytosols of cultured Sertoli cells and peritubular cells from the testes of 20-day-old rats. CRBP was not detected in spermatids or spermatocytes obtained from the testes of 60-day-old rats.

PPARβ regulates vitamin A metabolism-related gene expression in hepatic stellate cells undergoing activation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
Activation of cultured hepatic stellate cells correlated with an enhanced expression of proteins involved in uptake and storage of fatty acids (FA translocase CD36, Acyl-CoA synthetase 2) and retinol (cellular retinol binding protein type I, CRBP-I ...

Blood Biomarkers of Helicobacter pylori‐Infected Chronic Gastritis in Active Versus Stable Phases: A Clinical Indicator Analysis Combined With Proteomic and Metabolomic Investigations

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Combining clinical data with serum proteomics and metabolomics, the HGB–CAPZB–acetic acid model was developed as a potential diagnostic index to distinguish the active and stable stages of Helicobacter pylori‐infected chronic gastritis, and the related mechanism was explored through multi‐omics.

Improving nutritional assessment in pediatric anorexia nervosa: Clinical value of key serum biomarkers

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Reliable biochemical markers of starvation are needed to improve detection and monitoring of starvation in pediatric anorexia nervosa (AN), thus we explored new and revisited old potential serum biochemical markers. Methods In this prospective cohort study we included 65 pediatric patients with AN.

Reprogramming of the retinoic acid pathway in decidualizing human endometrial stromal cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Upon breaching of the endometrial surface epithelium, the implanting embryo embeds in the decidualizing stroma. Retinoic acid (RA), a metabolite of vitamin A, is an important morphogen during embryonic and fetal development, although the role of the RA ...
