The synthetic retinoid 4-HPR has been shown to markedly lower the plasma concentration of both retinol and RBP in rats and humans. We have studied the effect of 4-HPR on the secretion of retinol-RBP from liver cells in vivo and in vitro. In rats maintained with a normal diet, a vitamin A-deficient d
Complexes formed between transthyretin and retinol-binding protein prevent loss of retinol from the body through glomerular filtration. The interactions between these proteins have been examined by electrospray ionization combined with time-offlight mass analysis. Conditions were found whereby compl
