Distribution of aquaporins in the colon of Octodon degus, a South American desert rodent
(2002)
Octodon degus is a desert rodent of northern Chile, adapted to survive with a limited supply of water. This rodent has a high degree of fecal dehydration, related to colon water absorption. With the hypothesis that aquaporins ...
Aquaporins in Fetal Development
(Springer Verlag Berlín, 2017-03)
Water homeostasis during fetal development is of crucial physiologic importance. The successful formation and development of the placenta is critical to maintain normal fetal growth and homeostasis. The expression of several ...
The expression of aquaporins 1 and 9 in adult rat epididymis is perturbed by chronic exposure to ethanol
(2012-02-01)
Aquaporins (AQPs), notably AQP-1 and AQP-9, may contribute to reabsorption of fluid and solute across the epididymis. Ethanol is related to be a toxicant affecting directly or indirectly the epididymis and the sperm motility. ...
Pollen aquaporins: What are they there for?
(Taylor & Francis, 2016-09)
In order to provide more insight into the function of aquaporins during pollination, we characterized NIP4;1 and NIP4;2, 2 pollen-specific aquaporins of Arabidopsis thaliana. NIP4;1 and NIP4;2 displayed high amino acid ...

Isothermal microcalorimetry allows detection of "aquaporines" in quinoa seeds
(Elsevier Science, 2000-04)
Aquaporines are channels specifically involved in the overall transport of water through plasma membrane and tonoplast cells. In order to test their presence in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) seeds, we used isothermal ...
Meniere's Disease: Molecular Analysis Of Aquaporins 2, 3 And Potassium Channel Kcne1 Genes In Brazilian Patients
(Lippincott Williams & WilkinsPhiladelphia, 2016)
Aquaporin 9 is expressed in the epididymis of immature and mature pigs
(2017-01-01)
Aquaporins (AQPs) are channel proteins that facilitate the transepithelial and bidirectional movement of water. AQP9 is an aquaporin that is expressed in the mammalian epididymis. This water transport contributes to ...
Hepatocyte Aquaporins in bile physiology and disease
(Sociedad Argentina de Fisiología, 2016)
Bile formation by hepatocytes is an osmotic secretory process resulting from the canalicular secretion of water in response to osmotic gradients created by the active transport of solutes, primarily bile salts, and other ...
Prediction of aquaporin function by integrating evolutionary and functional analyses
(Springer, 2013-11-29)
Aquaporins (AQPs) are a family of channel proteins that transport water and/or small solutes across cell membranes. Aquaporins are present in Bacteria, Eukarya and Archaea. The classical AQP evolution 47 paradigm explains ...
