Comparison of the Effects of Supplemental Red Palm Oil and Sunflower oil on Maternal Vitamin A Status. [PDF]

, 2001
Conflicting results have been reported on the ability of dietary carotenoids to improve vitamin A status in lactating women. Red palm oil is one of the richest dietary sources of beta-carotene.

Retinol Uptake by Isolated Retinol Pigment Epithelium Plasma Membranes

, 1981
The uptake of retinol has been investigated by incubating suspensions of isolated bovine retinal pigment epithelium plasma membranes in the presence of [3H]retinol-retinol-binding protein complex. After SDS gel electrophoresis of the labelled membranes, [

Oxidation of Allylic Alcohols by Manganese Oxides: Elucidating the Influences of MnOx Structure and Mn Oxidation State on Reactivity

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Manganese oxides (MnOX) of different structures and with different Mn oxidation states exhibit significant variation in their reactivity toward the oxidation of allylic alcohols. Using two allylic alcohol model substrates, we demonstrate the relationship between activity and MnOX structure, Mn4+ content and incorporated secondary cations.

Interaction between retinol intake and ISX rs5755368 polymorphism in colorectal cancer risk: a case–control study in a Korean population

Scientific Reports, 2023
This study aimed to examine whether the ISX rs5755368 genotypes are associated with the effect of dietary retinol consumption on CRC risk. We recruited 923 CRC patients and 1846 controls to identify the association between dietary retinol and CRC risk ...

Retinol and retinol-binding protein stabilize transthyretin via formation of retinol transport complex.

, 2010
Transthyretin (TTR) is a plasma hormone carrier protein associated with hereditary and senile forms of systemic amyloid disease, wherein slow tetramer disassembly is thought to be an obligatory step. Plasma transport of retinol is carried out exclusively

A proteomic investigation of forebrain regeneration in the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius)

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Our investigation reveals ontogenetic, injury‐ and regeneration‐associated proteomic changes in the leopard gecko forebrain. Abstract Background The ability to replace lost or damaged neurons following an injury is termed reactive neurogenesis. Although reactive neurogenesis has been reported in several lizard species, the molecular mechanisms ...

Long-term strict raw food diet is associated with favourable plasma b-carotene and low plasma lycopene concentrations in Germans [PDF]

, 2008
Dietary carotenoids are associated with a reduced risk of chronic diseases. Raw food diets are predominantly plant-based diets that are practised with the intention of preventing chronic diseases by virtue of their high content of beneficial nutritive ...
