Role of retinol-binding protein 4 in obese Asian Indians with metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2012 Retinol-binding protein 4 is an adipocytokine separately implicated in the development of obesity-related insulin resistance and proatherogenic lipid profile, however, its role in humans is unclear.

High resolution crystal structure data of human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP4) bound to retinol and fatty acids [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2018 Retinol is transported in vertebrate plasma bound to a protein called retinol-binding protein (RBP4) so far believed to be specific for the vitamin. When the protein is saturated with retinol it binds tightly to another plasma protein, transthyretin ...
