    Glossary Retinol Binding Protein 4

    protein that transports vitamin A in the bloodstream

    Retinol Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) is a protein that transports vitamin A (retinol) from the liver to peripheral tissues. It plays a crucial role in vision, immune function, and cellular growth. Elevated levels of RBP4 have been linked to insulin resistance and metabolic disorders, making it a significant marker in medical research.
