Transcriptomic Analysis of Porcine Granulosa Cells Overexpressing Retinol Binding Protein 4 [PDF]
Genes, 2019 Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), mainly secreted by the liver and adipocytes, is a transporter of vitamin A. RBP4 has been shown to be involved in several pathophysiological processes, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and cardiovascular risk. Reports have indicated the high expression levels of RBP4 in cystic follicles.

Retinol Binding Protein 4 and Fatty Liver: A Direct Link? [PDF]
Hepatology, 2013 Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) is a 21-kDa protein that facilitates the transport of retinol through the circulation to peripheral tissues. The principal source of RBP4 in the body is the liver. Hepatocytes are the primary producers of RBP4; they use the protein to contribute to total-body retinol homeostasis by complexing it with dietary retinol and

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.Abstract The perception of flavor in a food system depends on its release from the protein matrix. Apart from hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions and van der Waal's forces, the formation of covalent adducts between the flavor and protein highly impacts the release of flavor from the protein matrix.
