“…STRA6 has also been found to be responsible for transferring retinol across the blood-tissue barriers in adults and it is likely involved in the transfer of RBP4-delivered retinol across the placenta (Bouillet et al, 1997;Kelly, Widjaja-Adhi, Palczewski, & von Lintig, 2016;Sapin et al, 2000). In spite of a potential role for serum amyloid A in retinol transport, serum retinol concentrations are still significantly decreased in patients experiencing inflammation because of other potential contributing factors (Rubin, Ross, Stephensen, Bohn, & Tanumihardjo, 2017).
