The kinetics of esterification of exogenous retinol by cell membranes prepared from the crude homogenate of the frog retinal pigment epithelium was studied. The formation of retinyl palmitate from added retinol was directly assayed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A linear relations
## Abstract The role of insulinβlike growth factors (IGF) in regulating cell differentiation and proliferation is in part modulated by the IGF binding protein (IGFBP) family of genes. Previous studies of the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have detected expression of IGFBPβ2, β3, and β6. How
