Abstract:
:A study was conducted to determine the levels of cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) mRNA and protein in various tissues of the rat, to explore relationship between CRBP mRNA and protein levels in different tissues, and to examine the effects of changes in retinol nutritional status on the tissue distribution and levels of CRBP mRNA. Previous studies have shown that tissue CRBP protein levels are reduced in totally retinoid-deficient rats, but are otherwise minimally affected by changes in retinoid status. Three groups of male rats were compared: normal controls, retinoid-deficient, and retinol-repleted deficient rats. CRBP mRNA levels were measured by RNase protection assay and CRBP protein levels by radioimmunoassay in seven tissues. High levels of both CRBP mRNA and CRBP protein were found in the proximal epididymis, kidney, and liver; lower levels were seen in lung, testis, spleen, and small intestine. Tissue CRBP mRNA and protein levels were highly correlated (P less than 0.01) with each other. Retinoid deficiency did not alter the levels of CRBP mRNA found in the proximal epididymis, kidney, and liver. In contrast, CRBP mRNA levels in the lung, testis, spleen, and small intestine were reduced substantially in retinoid-deficient rats, to values that were only 23% to 50% of the corresponding values in the tissues of control rats. After oral repletion with retinol (4-18 h earlier), CRBP mRNA levels for these latter four tissues were found to have risen to control or near-control levels. The suggestion is raised that retinol repletion may have directly induced the expression of the CRBP gene in these particular tissues.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
