Renal evaluation in women with preeclampsia.

Nephron extra

Facca TA, Kirsztajn GM, Pereira AR, Moreira SR, Teixeira VP, Nishida SK, Sass N.
PMID: 22740065
Nephron Extra. 2012 Jan;2(1):125-32. doi: 10.1159/000338271. Epub 2012 May 22.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Preeclampsia (PE) is a cause of glomerulopathy worldwide. Urinary retinol-binding protein (RBP) is a marker of proximal tubular dysfunction, albuminuria is an endothelial injury marker, urine protein:creatinine ratio (PCR) may have a predictive value for renal disease later...

Prealbumin and Retinol Binding Proteins Are Not Usable for Nutrition Follow-Up in Pediatric Intensive Care Units.

Pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology & nutrition

Tekgüç H, Özel D, Sanaldi H, Akbaş H, Dursun O.
PMID: 30345246
Pediatr Gastroenterol Hepatol Nutr. 2018 Oct;21(4):321-328. doi: 10.5223/pghn.2018.21.4.321. Epub 2018 Oct 10.

PURPOSE: Feeding children is a problem in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) and it is difficult to know the correct amount. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if prealbumin or retinol binding proteins (RBP) are effective relative...

Genus-level evolutionary relationships of FAR proteins reflect the diversity of lifestyles of free-living and parasitic nematodes.

BMC biology

Yuan D, Li S, Shang Z, Wan M, Lin Y, Zhang Y, Feng Y, Xu L, Xiao L.
PMID: 34461887
BMC Biol. 2021 Aug 30;19(1):178. doi: 10.1186/s12915-021-01111-3.

BACKGROUND: Nematodes are a widespread and diverse group comprising free-living and parasitic species, some of which have major detrimental effects on crops, animals, and human health. Genomic comparisons of nematodes may help reveal the genetic bases for the evolution...

Expression Profiles of Cellular Retinol-binding Protein, Type II (CRBP II) in Erlang Mountainous Chickens.

Asian-Australasian journal of animal sciences

Yin HD, Tian K, Li DY, Gilbert ER, Xiao LH, Chen SY, Wang Y, Liu YP, Zhao XL, Zhu Q.
PMID: 25049956
Asian-Australas J Anim Sci. 2014 Mar;27(3):310-5. doi: 10.5713/ajas.2013.13469.

Cellular retinol-binding protein II (CRBP II) belongs to the family of cellular retinol-binding proteins and plays a major role in absorption, transport, and metabolism of vitamin A. In addition, because vitamin A is correlated with reproductive performance, we measured...

The beneficial role of retinoids in glomerular disease.

Frontiers in medicine

Mallipattu SK, He JC.
PMID: 25853135
Front Med (Lausanne). 2015 Mar 23;2:16. doi: 10.3389/fmed.2015.00016. eCollection 2015.

The primary etiology of CKD is a direct consequence of initial dysfunction and injury of the glomerulus, the main filtration system. Podocytes are terminally differentiated epithelial cells in the glomerulus, whose major function is the maintenance of this renal...

Association between retinol-binding protein 4 concentrations and gestational diabetes mellitus (A1GDM and A2GDM) in different pregnancy and postpartum periods.

Annals of translational medicine

Du X, Dong Y, Xiao L, Liu GH, Qin W, Yu H.
PMID: 31700915
Ann Transl Med. 2019 Sep;7(18):479. doi: 10.21037/atm.2019.08.45.

BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can cause severe adverse effects on fetal and neonatal outcomes. The following study investigates the relationship between retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) and GDM in pregnant women with different grades (A1 and A2) and different...

Vitamin A Transporters in Visual Function: A Mini Review on Membrane Receptors for Dietary Vitamin A Uptake, Storage, and Transport to the Eye.

Nutrients

Martin Ask N, Leung M, Radhakrishnan R, Lobo GP.
PMID: 34836244
Nutrients. 2021 Nov 09;13(11). doi: 10.3390/nu13113987.

Vitamins are essential compounds obtained through diet that are necessary for normal development and function in an organism. One of the most important vitamins for human physiology is vitamin A, a group of retinoid compounds and carotenoids, which generally...
