Structural and mutational analyses of protein–protein interactions between transthyretin and retinol-binding protein

FEBS Journal, 2008
Transthyretin is a tetrameric binding protein involved in the transport of thyroid hormones and in the cotransport of retinol by forming a complex in plasma with retinol-binding protein.

Association of retinol binding protein 4 with risk of gestational diabetes [PDF]

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2013
We investigated association of maternal retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4) with risk of gestational diabetes (GDM).GDM cases (N=173) and controls (N=187) were selected from among participants of a cohort study of risk factors of pregnancy complications.

Interactions with Retinol and Retinoids of Bovine Cellular Retinol-Binding Protein

FEBS Journal, 1995
The interactions with retinol and retinol analogs of bovine cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) have been investigated, by means of fluorescence titrations, to obtain more information on the structural features of retinoid that may be required for ...

Effects of retinol binding protein-4 on vascular endothelial cells

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2011
The study was designed to investigate the effect of retinol binding protein (RBP)-4 on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, which mediate the effects of insulin in vascular endothelial cells. The effects of RBP4 on nitric oxide (NO) and insulin-stimulated endothelin-1 (ET-1) secretion and on ...

Circulating retinol-binding protein 4 and metabolic syndrome in the elderly

Wiener Medizinische Wochenschrift, 2011
Retinol-binding protein (RBP) 4, a human adipokine that specifically binds to retinol, has been reported to provide a link between obesity and insulin resistance. Plasma RBP4 concentration may be under the influence of age and obesity, but only a few studies has investigated this link in elderly individuals.

Retinol-binding protein-4 in experimental and clinical metabolic disease

Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, 2008
Retinol-binding protein-4 (RBP4), a 21-kDa protein synthesized in the liver and adipose tissue, has recently been described as a murine adipokine involved in the development of insulin resistance. The expression of the gene encoding RBP4 was increased in the adipose tissue, but not in the liver, of insulin-resistant adipose GLUT4(-/-) mice and five ...

Retinol-binding protein 4, insulin resistance and pregnancy

Metabolism, 2012
Sir, the recent publication on retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), insulin resistance (IR) and pregnancy is very interesting [1]. Khovidhunkit et al concluded, “Serum RBP4 levels in pregnancy are not associated with IR.” [1]. This report is very interesting but is discordant with previous reports. RBP4 is discussed in terms of its clinical correlation to

Retinol-Binding Protein 4 in Patients with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Journal of Women's Health, 2010
It is still unknown if serum retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) relates to metabolic control and the occurrence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). We studied RBP4 levels in patients with insulin-treated GDM and healthy pregnant women twice during pregnancy.Sixty-three women with GDM and 38 healthy pregnant women were included. Serum RBP4 levels were
