Retinol-binding protein 4 in skeletal and cardiac muscle: molecular mechanisms, clinical implications, and future perspectives

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) has emerged as a critical adipokine involved in the pathophysiology of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Beyond its classical role in retinol transport, RBP4 influences insulin resistance, inflammation, lipid ...

Metabolism of retinol-binding protein and vitamin A during hypervitaminosis A in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1975
Vitamin A is normally transported in plasma as retinol bound to a specific protein, retinol-binding protein (RBP). Detailed studies were conducted to examine the effects of excess vitamin A on the plasma concentration and metabolism of RBP, and to obtain

Alterations to oxidative stress markers in dogs after a short-term stress during transport*

Journal of Nutritional Science, 2014
While methods to evaluate antioxidant capacity in animals exist, one problem with the models is induction of oxidative stress. It is necessary to promote a great enough challenge to induce measurable alterations to oxidative parameters while ensuring the

Blood Biomarkers of Helicobacter pylori‐Infected Chronic Gastritis in Active Versus Stable Phases: A Clinical Indicator Analysis Combined With Proteomic and Metabolomic Investigations

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Combining clinical data with serum proteomics and metabolomics, the HGB–CAPZB–acetic acid model was developed as a potential diagnostic index to distinguish the active and stable stages of Helicobacter pylori‐infected chronic gastritis, and the related mechanism was explored through multi‐omics.

Maternal and infant gut microbiome

iMeta, EarlyView.
The maternal–infant continuum involves critical windows of host–microbiota co‐adaptation. Preconception, maternal and paternal microbiomes modulate immunity and reproduction. During pregnancy, a gut–placenta axis emerges, where microbial metabolites influence fetal growth or contribute to complications like gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM ...

Structural and binding properties of two paralogous fatty acid binding proteins of Taenia solium metacestode.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2012
BackgroundFatty acid (FA) binding proteins (FABPs) of helminths are implicated in acquisition and utilization of host-derived hydrophobic substances, as well as in signaling and cellular interactions. We previously demonstrated that secretory hydrophobic

Joint and Independent Associations of Dietary Antioxidant Intakes With Advanced Stages in Older Patients With Cardiovascular‐Kidney‐Metabolic Syndrome

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored the association between the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) and cardiovascular‐kidney‐metabolic (CKM) progression in an older population. Using data from NHANES 2001–2020, we analyzed 4974 adults aged ≥ 60 years with CKM syndrome. The CDAI was calculated from the intake of six dietary antioxidants.
