Characteristics of retinol accumulation from serum retinol-binding protein by cultured Sertoli cells

, 1989
The uptake of retinol was examined in cultured Sertoli cells when retinol was provided as a complex with the transport protein retinol-binding protein (RBP). Sertoli cells accumulated [3H]retinol in a time- and temperature-dependent manner. At 32 °C, the

Associations Between Microbial Depletion and Autonomic Dysregulation in Binge‐Eating Disorder

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The interplay between the gut microbiome and autonomic nervous system remains unexplored in binge‐eating disorder (BED). We aimed to explore specific microbial alterations in BED and examine their potential association with cardiac vagal tone as a distinct bio‐behavioral phenotype.

Vitamin A (retinol) handling during health and disease.

, 2019
(A) During homeostasis, gut bacteria suppress the conversion of dietary retinol into RA and promote its storage. Retinol transporter RBP4 is the main transporter of retinol to and from the liver.

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1113-1118, April 2025.
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

Relation between retinol, retinol-binding protein 4, transthyretin and carotid intima media thickness

, 2010
Objective: Retinol is transported in a complex with retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) and transthyretin (TTR) in the circulation. While retinol is associated with various cardiovascular risk factors, the relation between retinol, RBP4, TTR and carotid ...

Developmental changes in circulatory vitamin A (retinol) and its transport proteins in free-ranging harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) pups

, 2000
Although vitamin A (retinol) levels are highly regulated within individual organisms, natural (e.g., age, sex, disease) and anthropogenic (e.g., environmental contaminants) factors can affect the dynamics of this essential nutrient.

Multifunctional lipid-based nanocarriers with antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory activities for treating MRSA bacteremia in mice

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2021
Background Bacteremia-induced sepsis is a leading cause of mortality in intensive care units. To control a bacterial infection, an immune response is required, but this response might contribute to organ failure.
