  • 产品描述:

    Human retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) amino acid Glu19-Leu201 linked a C-terminal human IgG1 Fc tag by the TEV linker, as well as an N-terminal linker, was expressed in mammalian cells. The product is the C-terminally hFc-tagged recombinant human RBP4 protein. This recombinant RBP4 protein is an active protein, whose bioactivity has been measured by its binding with the TTR in a functional ELISA, with the EC50 of 695.0-970.1 ng/ml. The purity of this protein is greater than 92% determined by SDS-PAGE. It has an apparent molecular weight of 55 kDa on the gel while its predicted mass is 50 kDa. It contains less endotoxin (<1.0 EU/ug protein), measured by the LAL method. Its protein length covers the full length of the mature RBP4 protein. It is in stock now.

    RBP4, mainly synthesized in the liver and adipose tissue, facilitates the transport of retinol from the liver to the peripheral organs. It is also an adipokine and fatty acid transporter. Besides, RBP4 is one of the adipokines involved in the development of insulin resistance.

  • 功能:
    Retinol-binding protein that mediates retinol transport in blood plasma. Delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. Transfers the bound all-trans retinol to STRA6, that then facilitates retinol transport across the cell membrane.

    1. Baseline RBP4 levels and MELD scores predicted 21-day (/=25) mortality, respectively. In critically ill patients with underlying liver disease, with a link to eGFRs, INRs and TC levels, the baseline RBP4 may serve as a marker for short-term mortality. PMID: 28588245
    2. our study provides clinical evidence revealing that the serum concentrations of RBP4 were elevated in NAFLD patients in a Chinese population. These findings indicated that RBP4 might be a noninvasive molecular biomarker that detects the presence of NAFLD in middle-aged and elderly population. PMID: 28332619
    3. Vitreous levels of APOA1 and RBP4 in human rhegmatogenous retinal detachment associated with choroidal detachment reflects the severity of disease. PMID: 29618920
    4. The overexpression of RBP4 increased cell proliferation, whereas siRNA-mediated RBP4 knockdown significantly decreased HTR8/SVneo cell proliferation via activation of PI3K/AKT signaling. PMID: 30015949
    5. High RBP4 expression is associated with hypertriglyceridemia. PMID: 29747616

    17. Conclusion RBP4 may be used as a predictive factor of diabetic nephropathy patients complicated with silent cerebral infarction (SCI) and is positively correlated with cognitive dysfunction.

    18. these data demonstrate a key role of STRA6 and RBP4 in the maintenance of colon cancer self-renewal and that this pathway is an important link through which consumption of HFD contributes to colon carcinogenesis. PMID: 28689994
    19. Data suggest that, in subjects with chronic kidney disease, renal function is inversely related to serum RBP4 levels; as GFR decreases, the relationship between RBP4 and insulin resistance is attenuated. (GFR = glomerular filtration rate, a measure of kidney function) PMID: 28473187
    20. Results identified RBP4 as a promising acute liver failure (ALF) biomarker among energy metabolism-related proteins.

RBP4 is some 6-fold lower when active TB patients have chronic energy deficiency (CED) than when BMI is >25 kg/m sq; however, free fatty acids were not associated with CED in active TB patients, which may be a type 2 error or represent an energy impasse where infection and the host's metabolic needs are in competition. PMID: 28625041
