Clickable Vitamins as a New Tool to Track Vitamin A and Retinoic Acid in Immune Cells
The vitamin A derivative, retinoid acid (RA) is key player in guiding adaptive mucosal immune responses. However, data on the uptake and metabolism of vitamin A within human immune cells has remained largely elusive because retinoids are small, lipophilic molecules which are difficult to detect. To...
