Abnormal retinol-binding protein level

MedGen UID:
1387105
•Concept ID:
C4476919
•
Finding
HPO: HP:0031031

Definition

A deviation from normal blood concentration of retinol-binding protein (RBP). The most commonly used indicator of vitamin A status is the serum retinol concentration (retinol is one of the several compounds known as vitamin A). The serum RBP concentration is used as a surrogate measure for serum retinol. [from HPO]
