As a member of the lipocalin superfamily; RBP4 containing a β-barrel structure with a well-defined cavity is secreted from the liver; and in turn delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma; the RBP4-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin (TTR); and this binding is crucial for preventing RBP4 excretion through the kidney glomeruli. RBP4 expressed from an ectopic source efficiently delivers retinol to the eyes; and its deficiency affects night vision largely. Recently; RBP4 as an adipokine; is found to be expressed in adipose tissue and correlated with obesity; insulin resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConcentration\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eActivity\u003c\/b\u003e: Measured by its ability to bind all-trans retinoic acid.
