Immunohistochemistry of vacuoles occurring in rat hepatocytes after retinol administration.
Imaging of intrinsic indicators within tissue, such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, retinol, indoleamines, and collagen provided crucial physiological information.
Upon activation, the droplets are lost and retinoid is released as retinol, a transport form in plasma.
Within the cytoplasm, retinol is converted to retinal by retinol dehydrogenase followed by a further dehydrogenation to retinoic acid by retinal dehydrogenase.
At 45 min (curve 10), the peak slightly decreased, showing that retinol slowly leaves the outer segment.
Lipocalins include the homologues retinol-binding protein with an 8-stranded b-barrel, and retinoic acid-binding protein with a 10-stranded b-barrel.
Tumor formation in mice with somatic inactivation of the retinoblastoma gene in interphotoreceptor retinol binding protein-expressing cells.
As for the subsequent stages of photolysis that lead to the generation of all-trans retinol in intact cells, they need a special experimental and theoretical analysis.
