909 Baehr, WolfgangRetinoid absorption and storage is impaired in mice lacking lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT)Lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) is believed to be the predominant if not the sole enzyme in the body responsible for the physiologic esterification of retinol. We have studied Lrat-deficient (Lrat-/-) mice to gain a better understanding of how these mice take up and store dietary retinoids a...Chromatography, High Pressure Liquid; Mice, Transgenic; Tissue Distribution2005
910 Mitchell, Joyce A.Retrieval from full-text medical literature: the dream & the realityWhile the retrieval of the full-text of a document might seem to end all the hassle of using traditional retrieval systems, the results of the MEDLINE/Full-Text Project indicate that retrieval from the current full-text databases of biomedical journal literature does not match the dream. During the ...1991-01-01
