Latex immunoassay of retinol-binding protein.

Clinical Chemistry, 1982
Abstract Latex immunoassay, a sensitive method based on latex particle agglutination, is used here for the determination of retinol-binding protein in human biological fluids. The assay, similar to that described previously for beta 2-microglobulin (Clin. Chem.

Solution structure of a repeated unit of the ABA-1 nematode polyprotein allergen of ascaris reveals a novel fold and two discrete lipid-binding sites [PDF]

, 2011
Parasitic nematode worms cause serious health problems in humans and other animals. They can induce allergic-type immune responses, which can be harmful but may at the same time protect against the infections. Allergens are proteins that trigger allergic

Agronomic and Nutritional Perspectives on Vegetable Crops in Africa

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Vegetable production plays a key role in food security, nutrition, and livelihoods across Africa. Moreover, African indigenous vegetables emerge as underutilized yet highly valuable crops, rich in macro‐ and micronutrients, as well as bioactive compounds with an array of health benefits.

Effects of dietary retinoic acid on cellular retinol- and retinoic acid-binding protein levels in various rat tissues.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1990
A study was conducted to explore the effects of retinoic acid, fed to retinol-deficient rats, on the tissue distribution and levels of cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) and cellular retinoic acid-binding protein (CRABP).

Retinol binding protein 4 in relation to diet, inflammation, immunity, and cardiovascular diseases.

Advances in Nutrition, 2015
Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), previously called retinol binding protein (RBP), is considered a specific carrier of retinol in the blood. It is also an adipokine that has been implicated in the pathophysiology of insulin resistance.

A Pooled CRISPR Screen Reveals Genes Critical for Erythroblast Enucleation

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Terminal erythroid differentiation involves dramatic cellular remodeling that culminates in the expulsion of the nucleus, a process known as enucleation. While enucleation is conserved across mammals and is crucial for the generation of fully functional erythrocytes, the mechanisms governing this process have remained largely unknown, in part ...

Colchicine inhibition of retinol-binding protein secretion by rat liver.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1980
Studies were conducted to explore the effects of colchicine on the secretion and metabolism of retinol-binding protein (RBP) by the liver. In the vitamin A-deficient rat, the rate of secretion of RBP from the liver into the serum is greatly reduced, and ...

Molecular basis for the interaction of cellular retinol binding protein 2 (CRBP2) with nonretinoid ligands

Journal of Lipid Research, 2021
Present in the small intestine, cellular retinol binding protein 2 (CRBP2) plays an important role in the uptake, transport, and metabolism of dietary retinoids.

Clinical Significance of Acute Kidney Injury in Idiosyncratic Drug‐Induced Liver Injury: A Multicentric Propensity Scores Matched Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Clinical significance of acute kidney injury in idiosyncratic drug‐induced liver injury: a multicentric propensity scores matched study. Evidence about the role of acute kidney injury (AKI) in idiosyncratic drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) is still scarce.

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 ...
