متن کاملRetinol-binding protein (RBP) and pigmentary dystrophy of the retina.

The free retinol then penetrates through the mucosal cells, perhaps aided by its polar or hydrophilic hydroxy group, and is re-esterified during transit (Glover and Walker, I 964). After absorption it reaches the ...

The subsequent literature was reviewed by Davidson (i960), 'who found that only eighteen cases had been described, and added one further case. Within this series he was able to define a relatively homogenous group of t...
