α-Retinol Is Distributed through Serum Retinol-Binding Protein-Independent Mechanisms in the Lactating Sow-Nursing Piglet Dyad(2)

α-Retinol (αR) is a structural isomer of retinol [vitamin A (VA)] that does not bind to serum retinol-binding protein (RBP). In this study, α-retinyl acetate (αRA) was synthesized and given orally (35 μmol) to VA-deficient lactating sows (n = 11) to assess its potential to trace RBP-independent reti...
